5 Creative Ideas for Renovating a Nursery Room

The first room that a child experiences is the nursery. It prepares them for their future as they learn how to sleep, play and even walk in this new space. The nursery should be filled with items that will encourage a child’s curiosity and imagination.

Nurseries are also a place where many parents choose to decorate for baby showers, so it is important to keep in mind how this room could transform over time. It’s also helpful to consider the different types of nursery beds, storage and lighting.

We’ve rounded up five design ideas that can help you get inspired for creating your perfect nursery room.

light source that matches the style of your child’s bed

If you are planning to use a convertible crib, go ahead and purchase one with a canopy. Place an overhead light fixture that matches the bed’s style, then switch it on each evening before your little one falls asleep.

If you plan to use this room as an adult guest space in the future, think about investing in lighting styles that will complement your décor and fit in with other items in your home.

n area for rocking and comforting

If you plan to use a crib until your baby is ready for a toddler bed, it’s helpful to create a separate space that is solely dedicated to comfort. This may be as simple as adding an armchair next to the crib or creating a special reading corner in the nursery.

Peel and stick Wallpapers

Use Custom wallpaper that is peel and stick wallpapers to add color and texture to the walls, then carefully paint over them with a low-odor paint. Peelable wallpapers can be great  for nurseries as they can be repainted and redecorated over time.

Decor that expands their horizons

Children’s rooms should be decorated with items that broaden their horizons, like a mobile that includes images of the moon and stars or an area rug with an interesting pattern. These are only two examples of how to transform this space into something special. Use your imagination and decorate this room with items that will encourage your child to explore while they are still very young.

Lighting and storage containers that parents can use in other rooms

It’s a great idea to add lighting and storage units that can be used in different parts of the house when you are finished using them in the nursery. If you have the budget, you may also want to look into changing tables with storage space.

style that reflects your personal taste and is easy to update

It’s important to decorate a nursery room in a style that showcases your personal tastes, but is also functional. You can do this using wallpapers for nursery. It’s helpful to go with basic colors and designs for this room as you will most likely be updating the space every few years.

October Mood: Dark Walls

What is it about October that makes us all want to hang out in dark cozy spaces. I believe it’s the combination of Halloween and candlelight flickering against the walls that casts alluring shadows plus the cooler weather and daylight savings time that brings the night faster.

What I notice with dark painted walls is that gold or brass glisten beautifully, wood textures come alive, and shadows are more dramatic. These examples will tempt you to paint your walls  a shade of deep green, blue, charcoal, or black.

How to Prep Your Home for an Air Conditioning Installation

An air conditioning installation is essential in a home. However, you cannot rely on your hired contractor to do all the work. If you want the job to get done fast and hassle-free, you should take the necessary steps to prepare your space. Before calling the pros into your home, here are a few things you must do:

Take the time to clean and declutter your home. 

Before your AC installation schedule, do not forget to conduct proper cleaning in your home, especially around the work area. Remove obstructions, such as kid’s toys, furniture, and appliances, and transfer them temporarily to another room. A clean and clutter-free work area allows contractors to move around freely during the installation process. 

Make sure your ductwork is ready.

If you are going to install a central air conditioning system in your home, you must get your ductwork installed ahead of time. In case you have existing ductwork, have it cleaned and sealed properly before integrating the new AC system. 

Keep small kids and pets away from the working area.

Playing kids and running pets can distract your hired AC contractors at work. Put your kids in a separate room where they can play and sleep while there’s an ongoing AC installation in your home. It would also be the best time to take your pets out on a walk. 

Hire a professional air conditioning installation Jupiter
