There are so many emotions that come with expecting a newborn. Nothing can quite prepare you for the task of taking care of a new baby, but here are some things you can do to get your nursery ready and feel more comfortable for your new arrival.
Paint the Nursery
Painting is an easy and affordable way to get a nursery ready. Whether you go for a gender specific pink & blue or a neutral color, painting a room will provide the room with warmth and personality. Accessorizing the space is a great way to feel like you are connecting with the baby before its arrival.
Hang Window Treatments
Not only will
window treatments add to the decor of the nursery, but getting
drapes with
black-out lining will help assist with a newborn's sleep cycles. Preventing light from entering through a window will create a calm, dark environment at night while letting the sun shine in during the day.
Invest in a Comfortable Chair
There will be many nights that you will be snuggling up with your newborn, trying to rock them back to sleep. A comfortable chair will be an important investment that will make the time with your child more enjoyable. Pick a neutral fabric that can grow with the child's room decor as they age.
