Theme From
Numerous Themes For The Nursery Can Easily Be Found
Once upon a time, bedding for a baby’s crib was relegated to a few solid colors. Pastel blue, pink, yellow, and green supplemented basic white, but there was not much else available, and it was all made of cotton. Gradually, prints were added in a few designs, such as teddy bears or frolicking lambs. Later, fuzzy appliques were added on baby quilts, but interesting bedding was still not to be found.
Finally, though, manufacturers started to realize that parents wanted more. New designs were created, and new fabrics were brought into the process. Crib bedding became more versatile, and major designers began creating sheets and blankets for their smallest clients. The nursery could now be properly decorated for the latest arrival in the family.
The current trend is to package all the elements needed to dress a crib into one package containing the complete bedding collection. Each will normally contain a bumper pad, quilt or blanket, dust ruffle, and crib sheet. If purchased separately, the cost can be much higher than if the set is bought. All items within the set are designed with one consistent theme.
Designer baby bedding is available from many sources and from many well-known designers. Eddie Bauer and Laura Ashley are just two of the names most people will recognize. The designs are quite varied, ranging from animal themes to geometric patterns. Some are available in unusual fabrics and many feature appliques or embroidered elements.
Many different themes are available. Some are gender specific, while others are not. Pirates, cowboys, fish, sports, jungle, and animal motifs are all available. Ballerinas, flowers, butterflies, and angels can also be found. There are images of the sky or the ocean as well as alphabet characters and numbers. Some are inspired by vintage patterns, such as traditional quilts, while others are more contemporary, with modern geometric shapes. Dragonfly and ladybug baby bedding is also very popular.
Some bedding sets feature coverlets that combine a number of different textures, such as corduroy, felt, and satin to make them more interesting to baby’s touch. Organic fabrics and those made from recycled materials are also available.
Accessories can also be found that match the crib sets. Mobiles, lamps, rugs, toy bags, and diaper holders are widely available. Window treatments and wall art to match can also be found. Since there are so many themes to choose from, the only problem will lie in choosing which motif to select.
