Tips For Getting Your Baby Nursery Organized
Jackie Kent
Planning what your baby nursery will look like is a big
responsibility. Good time and money needs to be spent to make
your child’s haven suit your taste and seem perfect. Remember
the nursery is going to be your child’s playground and general
living space for quite some time so it must have some
utilitarian values as well. Keeping your nursery organized is
of prime importance to make sure you make most of its
functional benefits. Whether your room is as large as a
football field or small enough to be a closet keeping it
systematized is a priority.
Below we compile a few basic tips for keeping your child’s
nursery tidy.
Primary tip: See that you have sufficient space in the room for
storage. Enough space for storing things will allow you to keep
the room neater. Let’s take one storage area after another for
consideration.
a) The Closet - Your child’s clothes will be smaller in size
than yours or your spouse's so take full advantage of the
reduced dimensions, push the closet rod down until it is just a
few feet above the floor. Use the extra space you create above
for more shelves. You can also consider using a closet
organizer to make full use of the space.
b) Spaces Under….- The crib or the changing table are fantastic
storage areas for baby stuff like diapers, creams, powders,
wipes etc.
c) Wicker baskets and Plastic containers - work very well for
storing Blankets, crib sheets, bedding, bibs etc.
d) A dresser or an armoire - sounds far too fancy to be useful
but is actually quite helpful for storing things. Consider
putting one of these in the nursery while deciding your
interiors and furniture.
e) Shelves and bookcases - These will allow you to put your
baby’s books, toys, teddies and other itsy bitsies in place.
Improvise in case the area of the room is little; use taller
bookcases instead of small, short ones if the space is cramped.
f) A toy box - one of those bits of furniture you just MUST
have in a baby’s room. Once the baby comes he will be getting
new toys every passing week from you, your parents, your
friends and pretty much everyone else who comes to know about
his arrival. The growing toy collection can obviously prove a
bit problematic to clear up. A toy box is the best answer to
such toy trouble. Just shove them in the box and clear up your
room.
When trying to organize your baby’s nursery be innovative and
imaginative and you’ll soon find little nooks and cranny to
store up those little baby details in. Remember, proper storage
is the first step towards clearing up a room so don’t ignore it.
