Disney Baby Nursery Decorating Ideas

Decorating a nursery is one of the most exciting aspects of having a new baby. There are so many themes from which to choose, with one of the most beloved being Disney. From a miniature Mickey border lining the walls to a baby Donald Duck throw, decorating a room in Disney is a breeze if you have an overall idea of how you want to nursery to both look and function.

Nursery Princess Paradise

Turn a girl's nursery into a princess paradise, using the Disney princess theme. Paint the nursery a cool blue and, if you are feeling adventurous and creative, add some fluffy white clouds. On the main wall, either paint a castle mural or use a large stick-on mural of a Disney castle, some of which have the Disney princesses, to reinforce the princess theme. Choose coordinated crib bumpers and crib sheets with a princess theme and accessorize with a Disney princess table lamp and a princess light switch cover. Hang a Disney princess window valance and Disney princess growth chart to the closet door of the room for an added touch. The best part is that as baby gets older, the room decor will still be relevant.

A versatile nursery decor idea that translates for both boys and girls, Mickey Mouse has long since been a beloved cartoon character and a great decorative component. Paint the nursery a cool blue and transfix red, white and blue star-shaped wall art around the room since a great deal of Mickey merchandise includes the magical stars. For a sophisticated touch, hang framed art of the original Mickey Mouse, before he became a commercial icon. Purchase Mickey Mouse crib bedding and a plush rug in a hue pulled from the bedding for a complementary element. Top it all off with a Mickey Mouse mobile above the baby's crib.

To create a nursery space that transitions well into your baby's toddler years, re-create the Mickey Mouse clubhouse. This consists of bright, bold colors and focuses on Disney shapes versus actual Disney imagery. Paint walls cornflower blue with a primary colored accent along borders and baseboards (cherry red is a great accent color). Hang bright adhesive wall art in the shape of large flowers, letters and numbers, with solid, primary-colored crib bedding. Then, incorporate decorative elements that represent a silhouette of the famous Mickey ears in place of traditional Disney images, including classic wall art, a simple bookcase with the silhouette of the Mickey ears on top of it and a table and chair set in the shape of a Mickey Mouse silhouette.
