When you first get to design the nursery room for your baby, the whole process is incredibly exciting and you get overwhelmed by all the details you have to take into consideration. But everything has to be just right and no detail is too small, not even the curtains. So how do you choose the right curtains for the room? Following these tips might provide you with an answer.


The color of the curtains is very important. If you’ve already chosen a theme or a palette for the room, then the curtains should match that. There’s also the possibility to choose something neutral, like white or beige. Dark colors are also an option. During the first months, the baby needs to sleep a lot.


You also have to take into consideration the material of the curtains. They need to do more than just look pretty. The curtains have to prevent dust and too much light from entering the room so cotton is often a popular choice. You can also opt for silk.


Decide how long you want the curtains to be. This also has to do with the type pf windows the nursery has. Small windows don’t need long curtains while floor-to-ceiling windows and glass walls require them. If possible, avoid long curtains as the baby might start pulling them when learning how to stand.



It’ customary for curtains to be a means to introduce pattern, color and texture into a room. In the case of the nursery room, the curtain can feature cute prints like teddy bears and flowers. They can match some of the other accent features in the room or they can stand out.
