Custom Baby Bedding

Custom baby bedding is the
ultimate luxury for you and your baby. When planning your nursery, you may
have a non-standard crib size or unique wallpaper or wall finish that might
make it difficult to find ready-made bedding. It’s worth investigating
custom baby bedding either locally or on the Internet. You might just find
that the cost of a
custom set is lower than you think – often lower than
high-end designer sets. Here are some things to know about designing your
own baby bedding.
When designing custom baby bedding, the
baby’s safety and comfort should be the first consideration. Fabric should
be 100% cotton, colorfast, durable and, most importantly, washable time
after time. Stain resistance is a nice feature to have. Avoid things like
appliqué or fringe that might come off and cause choking if ingested by the
baby. Although fabrics like chenille might seem attractive, they should be
avoided in favor of simpler, smoother fabrics.
When shopping for custom baby bedding, know
your source. Be sure to get cost estimates from several designers, and be
sure to ask lots of questions. If you have your own fabric, be sure the
designer will allow you to use it, and reduce their price accordingly. Don’t
compromise your baby’s safety by placing too much emphasis on style.
Pillows, for example, aren’t appropriate in a young baby’s crib. Crib
bumpers are somewhat controversial – some people think that, although they
protect the baby from the hard sides of the crib, they present some danger
of suffocation like pillows do.
So do your homework, choose a reputable
designer and keep an eye on costs. Your custom baby bedding may take 4-6
weeks to complete, but it will be exactly what you want in terms of fabric,
color and concept.
