Decoratively speaking, why do I want
Backdrop Bedding for my nursery?
Simply put, it goes with everything!
Our exclusive striped fabrics introduce an
unusually broad color palette without dictating
a specific look. Our palettes coordinate with a
wide variety of furnishings, rugs and
accessories and inspire endless color schemes.
Your nursery is limited only by your
imagination.
Backdrop
Bedding is easy to use and easy to
keep fresh over time by injecting additional
patterns and colors.
From a developmental perspective I can
understand that selecting a theme for my
child’s room might be a mistake, but isn’t it
easier to decorate by just purchasing things
that match?
Themes are easy to create, which may be why so
many parents choose that approach. Themes
start off cute, but become stale more quickly
than less specific looks. A child’s interests
change on a dime and it will cost you much
more than that to change the entire space
every time your little one discovers a new
love.
Our line offers a custom color palette that
lends itself to the introduction of
child-selected themes in the form of sheets
and accessories, so you can indulge your
child’s latest passion without completely
redecorating their space.
Does that mean you don’t recommend the wall
murals in a fantasy nursery?
I have seen many that I think are beautiful,
but they do create a theme and are limiting in
their look. When your child falls in love with
Sponge Bob and Dora the Explorer, or Grandpa
wins a big blue dog at the fair, they are
unlikely to fit easily into the parameters of
that nursery.
If you choose the painted mural, be prepared
for your investment to be short-lived. If you
simply must have one, consider creating it
with sticker art so it easily changes with
your child. You can have the fantasy nursery
of your dreams without defining your child’s
dreams.
Do I need a specific furniture style to go
with your line?
Our bedding goes with any style of furniture
you choose to compliment the look of your
home. Our wide color palette coordinates well
with a variety of stained wood furniture, as
well as painted finishes.
Another plus - you
can safely choose a solid head and foot on
your crib - our wedges fit snuggly so
they don’t have to tie on to be secured.
I want the developmental nursery, but I
want my nursery to be distinctive and
not look just like my neighbor’s.
Our color palette is uniquely suited to
customization and supports a wide variety of
decorative approaches – that is why we
included over 30 colors in each of our
stripes, providing endless opportunities to
create your own unique look. I guarantee your
nurseries will be as different as your babies.
