One of the most fun parts of having a little girl is designing a perfect feminine nursery. Because it has such a huge impact on the look of the whole room, one of the most important decisions will be choosing the perfect bedding set for your little girl. No matter what style you’re looking for, you’re bound to find something you like - the selection is huge.
Nursery decor for a little girl is somehow a little bit more special - probably because baby things for girls are just so unbelievably sweet. A new girl in the house is a great excuse to design an ultra-feminine nursery.
If you want an old-fashioned look, try to find something in white or light pinks, with ample embroidery and details. You can also consider girly ideas like floral designs, baby bonnets (think Sunbonnet Sue), or a pink crib set.
Princess themes are always popular. If you go this route, then you’ll probably want pink bedding. For details, think ribbons, bows, and taffeta. If you’re looking for an “easy button” for decoration your nursery, look at Disney’s Princess bedding line. Their collections are comprehensive and include all the accessories you could think of.
Another great girl’s theme is flowers. Floral designs can range from heavily embroidered to simple appliques. One of the great things about floral designs is that you can use just about any color, from traditional pinks to vibrant oranges and greens.
Popular characters from fairy tales, cartoons, and books make a great choice for a girl’s crib bedding. No matter what character you’re looking for, whether it’s the Wiggles or Little Bear, you’re sure to find it somewhere online. What’s really great about this theme is that it will become even more meaningful as your daughter grows up and becomes familiar with the characters.
It can be tempting to buy pretty pink bedding if you’re having a girl, but you may have a boy next, so you may want to choose something that will work for either gender. Neutral colors (browns) are a great choice and don’t necessarily have to be boring. Yellows and greens are two other choices.
