Nursery Furniture and Their Uses

There are so many different pieces of furniture that we can purchase for our baby’s nurseries. But they are not all as useful as what they may first seem. Today, we are going to discuss with you some of the common pieces of nursery furniture and their uses.

Baby Cot
A cot is a staple piece of furniture that can be found in every baby’s nursery. This piece of furniture is used as a safe place for babies to sleep and play in. We would highly recommend you purchase a decent sized cot for your baby’s nursery that will last them a little while.

Changing Table
Another common piece of furniture that can be found in baby’s nurseries is a changing table. These are generally used for changing your babies on, with them being elevated up to your height for changing. This is perfect for new mums who may be sore from the birth of their babies, so would struggle to go down to the floor. Changing tables are also good for storing all of your baby’s changing and bathing needs, keeping them all organised in one set area.

Rocking Chair
Another item that can be found within baby’s nurseries is a rocking chair. These are perfect for both mum and baby to have somewhere comfortable to sit during feeding time. The gentle rocking of the rocking chair can also help to settle the baby, sending them off into a nice deep sleep. Rocking chairs can be fairly large, so these can only be purchased if you have the room, but they are worth it!

These are three of the commonly found pieces of furniture in baby’s nurseries and what they are used for. Of course, you still have the common wardrobe and drawers for extra storage as well.

Popular Home Extension Choices

The house moving market is currently slower than usual. So it is obvious that people are choosing to extend their homes to make them larger and fit for their families. Today, we are going to share with you some of the most popular home extension ideas.

Conservatory
One of the most popular extension choices is a conservatory. Added a large, open, glass room to the back or the side of your home. An excellent way to add more space and bring more light into your home. These are a perfect choice if you have a larger garden and do not mind taking some of the room for some extra inside space.

OutBuildings
Not necessarily an extension to your home itself, but people are choosing to build outbuildings. This is essentially another building, but it is not connected to your home. Perfect for those who want to be able to escape away from the home into their own cave or office.

Garage Conversions
People are also choosing to convert their garages into an extra room for their home. With some people choosing to make these into home gyms, offices, or playrooms. The opportunities become endless when converting your garage.

Open Plan
Another popular choice for a home extension is actually knocking down walls, making your home open plan. This can help your home to feel larger. As well as allowing more light to enter your home. The heat will also spread faster in the larger room, helping your home to stay warmer.

These are some of the most popular extension choices for homes. Allowing you to make your home larger. What one will you choose to upgrade your home? With the opportunities being endless, there is so much you can do with your home. Allowing every home to be made into a dream home for somebody.

Firstly you should consider having a night light for your child. These can come in many different styles and shapes. Making it easy to make this child friendly and match with the overall theme of their room.

If you have a little girl, we would recommend purchasing them a dolls house especially for their room. This gives them something which is especially for them. Allowing you to make their rooms more personal.

For little boys, we would recommend going for a dinosaur or cars theme. There are lots of accessories from play mats to cushions which you can purchase in these designs.

For the final touch, we would recommend a name plaque for their door. This again makes their rooms feel much more personal to them. Allowing them to have their own area.

Accessories For Your Bathroom

One room which can be forgotten about is our bathrooms. Accessories for bathrooms and not always used. However they can help you to feel more relaxed and enjoy your bathroom just that little bit more.

A lot of people are adding signs to their bathrooms. For example the words, relax or bathe onto the walls or units. Reading these words can help you to feel more relaxed. These are very low cost so possible for anyone to buy!

Mirrors are also and excellent accessory choice for your bathroom. Bathrooms are mainly used for our personal care. For example, doing our makeup or shaving. Small mirrors will be an amazing accessory. Especially ones which offer a zoom. These are again extremely affordable.

Finally, when I think of bathroom I automatically think of the seaside. Giving your bathroom a seaside feel can be relaxing for some! I mean seashells and model boats. Bring the beach back home with you.

A canvas is one accessory which you can add to your lounge. These are amazing to make your house more homely. You can decide what you want on your canvas. Whether this is art work or a family portrait.

Another accessory you could add is rug. If you have hard flooring, adding a rug will help make it feel warmer and homely. A rug allows you to add more colour and style to your room.

The final accessory I am going to talk about is flowers. Having a vase with flowers in your room can help to make it more homely. They allow you to bring nature indoors and brighten up the room. They also allow you the opportunity to change them depending on your style.
