Home Renovations 2016: How to Prepare a Nursery with Unique and Affordable Pieces

Expecting a baby takes a lot of preparations, but amongst the most exciting is the part where you decorate the nursery. For professional guidance, online marketplace for interior design, Laurel & Wolf, has got a reasonable room plan for a one time, flat rate. It can guide expecting couples towards top-notch choices.

One of the marketplace's projects featured a simple design process. After coming up with a detailed floor and room profile, designers submitted initial proposals early on. Amongst the many bids was The Curated Life's Pamela R. McIntyre's design proposal. She was primarily selected for her unique ideas through the marketplace's online platform. Her final design presented a shopping list, a floor plan, and a style board.

Based on the outcome, here are a few of her inputs that can create a unique personal space for the little one.

Personal Art

Working with decor and art that are meaningful to the couple can add character to the nursery. If you are collecting silk scarves, for instance, you can make use of these. If there are unused special prints, you can have it framed and hung on the baby's changing station.

DIY Projects

While there is a wide range of options for lighting fixtures, let us admit it, most are unaffordable especially since a new addition to the family needs financial focus more than anything else. However, this should not stop you from creating a unique lighting design for the nursery. Without getting too technical, layering inexpensive IKEA lighting fixtures all together with the use of a paper lantern,can create a light diffusion effect in the room.

Recycle

While nurseries in catalogs are wonderful inspirations, making the area eclectic and unique with your own little efforts can be priceless. If you have distinctive decors, make use of it. If there is nothing that can be recycled for nursery beautification purposes, you can scavenge for unique pieces like rugs or crib hangs.
