Details or Sample:
Almost every new mother-to-be has experienced it. She walks through the baby room decor section of the maternity department or the baby products store and her imagination far exceeds her purse! She sees all the amazing baby items and feels her baby must only have the best of everything. If this sounds like you, don´t fear. Here are some ideas for spectacular baby room decor on a shoestring budget.

Use Your Imagination and Talents

Decorating a baby room doesn´t have to be expensive. You can use your imagination and talents to create a baby nursery that looks like a million, but really costs only a few hundred! Do you have experience with painting, sanding, crafts, etc? Can you sew? Can you frame photos or paintings? Can you add a wall border and hang curtains? If you can do even a few of these things, congratulations! You´re well on your way to staying within budget.

If you´re able to sew, you can sew window tapestries, blankets, and quilts to match your baby room decor colors and theme. Or, create a lovely Afghan throw for your rocking chair. If you´re talented with crafts, you might create some ornamental items to place on tables or to decorate the walls. Buy prints without the frames to save on costs, and make your own frames or buy inexpensive ones for the prints. The possibilities are endless!

Shop Garage Sales for Baby Room Decor Bargains

You´d be amazed at the like-new items you can find at garage sales. Most new mothers only use their nursery decor items for a short period of time, which eliminates wear and tear. With only a few years of use, the items are often in like-new condition. Worried about matching your theme? Buy baby items you can paint to match your baby nursery color scheme. You can paint a wooden crib any color you want. You can paint small end tables, a rocking chair, or a wooden changing table. You might save hundreds of dollars by purchasing these items used.

Garage sales, flea markets, and thrift stores also offer bargains on strollers, walkers, high chairs, and car seats. Try these before buying anything new and you´ll be surprised at the savings. Check your local newspaper classifieds each week for baby items for sale. You can often find great bargains this way too.
