How to create the perfect infant nursery 

Decorating and furnishing a nursery for your newborn is one of the most enjoyable do-it-yourself projects you can do. There are tons of books, magazines and Internet sites out there that will provide you with all the inspiration you need to get started.

That said, any decorating scheme should be carefully thought out and personal. Your infant's nursery should be a place that comforts both you and your child during the bonding process.

Selecting the overall room color is your first step to creating just the right feel. For instance, a calm color scheme in aqua or sky blue gives a sense of space in an otherwise small room.

Decorating an infant nursery is all about creating a calm and cozy environment. The key is to find the right combination of cool and warm colors to nurture your newborn.

When used in moderation primary colors add interest and visual stimulation. In my opinion though less is more. Go easy with bold and bright colors.

Introduce colors in small doses here and there - in wall hangings, bedding and in accessories like lampshades and decorative photo frames.

Coordinating bedding and window coverings is one of the easiest ways to decorate infant nurseries. The key is to select something that you love and makes you feel good. After all, remember your infant's nursery is more for you than for her.

Select bedding, wall decor and accessories that will grow with your child. Colors and hues that you like and won't tire of too quickly are always best.

A good approach is to select decor elements that work well together. It's amazing what can be done with neutral walls and floor coverings. A few simple changes here and there can give the room a whole new look as your child grows.

A harmonious nursery where bedding sets, window treatments and wall coverings all coordinate can create a comfy place of slumber and lullabies. That said, an understated mix and match approach can be equally effective.

It's fun to use your imagination for decorating possibilities. Put your own unique spin on your infant's nursery by incorporating accessories that share similar color and pattern elements. Turn to framed wall prints, photos and rugs for fresh ideas and inspiration.

How To Select A Baby Nursery Room Theme For A Shared Bedroom

Q:I'm pregnant with daughter number two and am looking for some baby nursery room theme ideas for a bedroom that will be shared with her 18 month old sister. Do you have any good decorating ideas that would be appropriate for both girls to grow up in?

A: First off, you may want to begin looking for baby nursery room theme inspiration in books, magazines, or online.

It's best to select a color that isn't too trendy so you won't have to repaint again for sometime.
