Cribs: What To Look For And Popular Styles

When it comes to selecting the right crib for a nursery, there are several factors to consider.

Of course, you’ll want to make sure that the crib is safe for your baby, but beyond these practical matters, parents also want their child's nursery furniture to reflect their personal style. Wooden furniture is an excellent choice for creating a classic or timeless look in a baby's room.

Wooden cribs come in many designs; some feature antique-looking details such as spindles or carvings, while others have more modern looks with slat sides.

Most wooden cribs are made from solid wood and can be finished in almost any colour you choose, making them highly customisable to fit into your home decor theme.

The SnuzPod 4 is our award-winning bedside crib, perfect for a safe and secure sleep space for your baby. We've cleverly designed the SnuzPod4 so that there is an increased airflow between the mattress and the sides of the crib, helping to regulate your baby's temperature while they sleep.

Not only that, but they look great too! The SnuzPod4's contemporary shape and stylish finish make it a timeless addition to any nursery.

Whatever you decide on, make sure your choice fits with the overall design of the space and complements other pieces of furniture already in the room.

You can find many beautiful options in our online store, with the most popular cribs right here:

Dressers: What To Look For And Popular Styles

Dressers are an essential part of any baby's room. They provide extra storage for all the things that come with having a new little one – from nappies and wipes to clothes, toys and more! But how do you know which dresser is the right fit?

First, look at the size of the dresser in relation to the space available in your room; make sure it fits comfortably without overcrowding other pieces or taking up too much floor space.

The style of the dresser should also reflect your tastes and complement the overall decor theme of the nursery. Popular styles include traditional wooden pieces, as well as classic white-painted options with decorative hardware accents.

Dressers that have sleek lines are great for creating a contemporary and modern style nursery, and the wooden material adds some texture to the space. Minimal interior design is particularly on-trend right now, and we love it!

Changing Tables: What To Look For And Popular Styles

When it comes to wooden nursery furniture, changing tables are essential. After all, they provide a safe and secure space for you to change your baby's nappies.

The changing table should obviously be practical and fit its purpose, but pay attention to the overall design and style of the table, too – something that matches the rest of your nursery decor is best.

Popular Styles Include

  • Traditional wood grain pieces with timeless designs
  • Sleek and modern options with curved legs
  • Rustic-style tables with vintage charm

Snuz’s changing tables actually double as dressers, so you’re getting two pieces bundled into one. Our wooden Scandi-inspired designs are the perfect fit for your choice of wooden nursery furniture, combining neutral paint with natural wooden colours.



Cot Beds: What To Look For And Popular Styles

When it comes to nursery furniture, cot beds are an important consideration. They provide a secure sleeping area for your little one while also being comfortable and stylish.

Choosing the right cot bed is essential for your baby’s comfort and health – there are many factors that should be taken into account. This includes size, material, design and safety features.

When looking at different styles of cot beds, you'll likely come across both traditional and modern designs.

Traditional designs often feature wood construction with intricate detailing and ornate carvings or embellishments. Modern designs tend to focus on sleek lines, minimal decoration and contemporary materials.

Our cot beds are the perfect combination of both – offering unique designs crafted from quality materials.

Our SnuzKot Skandi Cot Bed, for example, features a timeless Scandi-style design crafted from beautiful solid wood. It also comes with a range of safety features to ensure your little one is secure while they sleep.

Why Wooden Furniture Is Popular For Nurseries

Wooden nursery furniture sets are timeless pieces. Not only do they provide the necessary storage and convenience for parents to put all of their baby's things, but they also bring a certain aesthetic charm to the room.

The top three reasons we find parents opting for wooden nursery furniture are:

  • Quality: Wooden furniture is durable and will last for many years. You won't have to worry about repurchasing furniture when your child grows up.
  • Aesthetic Appeal: Wooden nursery furniture is totally versatile. It doesn't matter what nursery style you go for, there is a wooden piece that will fit in perfectly.
  • Natural Materials: Wooden furniture is typically more eco-friendly than other nursery furniture made from plastic, for example.

White wooden nursery furniture has become particularly popular in recent years due to its versatility and ability to match just about any colour palette.

Parents appreciate this type of furniture because of its classic style that never goes out of fashion – making it a perfect investment piece for their little one's first bedroom!

Tips For Decorating A Nursery With Wooden Furniture

When decorating a nursery with wooden furniture, there are a few tips and tricks that can help you make the most of this classic style.

Colour

First off, pay attention to colour. The colour of your nursery will play an important role in how your wooden furniture stands out. Try to find pieces that will either stand out boldly against a white background or blend in with a darker palette.

You may even consider adding in pops of brighter colours like yellow or orange for an eye-catching contrast.

You might not realise it, but the colour of your nursery can even play a part in how well your baby sleeps whilst in it, with some nursery designs proving to create a much calmer atmosphere than others. Colours like grey and white are known to promote a sense of calm, while brighter colours like yellow can be stimulating.

Accessories

Don't forget about accessories! Adding small decorative items can help tie together your space and give it personality – think throw pillows, wall hangings, and art pieces inspired by nature.

With these pieces in place, your nursery will become a serene haven that’s both comfortable and stylish.

Layout

Once you’ve chosen the furniture and accessories, it’s time to think about the nursery layout. The way in which you arrange your wooden furniture will greatly influence the overall look and feel of your space.

For instance, if you want to create a calming atmosphere for your little one, try placing the furniture around the edges of the room and leaving plenty of space for play in the middle.

We recommend that you position your baby's sleeping space away from any windows or heaters, and place them close to the nursery room door. This way, they won't be affected by any draughts or too hot heaters while they sleep. Having their crib by the door also makes it easier for you to check in on them throughout the night.
