As you come to write the shopping list for your babyâs nursery, itâs understandable to feel a little overwhelmed. Â With any interior design it can be tricky to stick to a budget, especially a nursery where safety, longevity and versatility are of utmost importance. To give you a helping hand, weâve put together some of our top tips so you can save money on your nursery without compromising on quality.
Quality Furnishings
As you may have guessed already, we think quality should be at the top of your list when sourcing products for your nursery. Yes, these products might be slightly more expensive at face value but when care and consideration is put into the manufacturing of a product, you can be confident that itâs going to last. This in turn means youâre not going to need to purchase a replacement in the not-too-distant future!
âHow can I tell if a product is good quality?â we hear you say. This can be tricky, especially when the majority of our shopping is online these days! As with Boori furniture, premium quality doesnât always come with a premium price tag so itâs important to look at other factors. Check if the brand youâre shopping from offers a warranty, see if you can find information on how their products are made and more importantly, what theyâre made from! Here at Boori weâre extremely proud of our craftsmanship and use sturdy, natural materials to ensure our products stand the test of time. Thatâs why we can confidently offer a 3-5 year warranty on our core range of products.
If youâre looking for a budget-friendly cot but donât want to compromise on quality, take a look at our range of solid wood compact cots. Theyâre slightly smaller than our traditional cot beds so are easy to move from room to room, some even have lockable castors too. They are considerably larger than a bassinet and have two base-heights so they can be used from birth to toddler age, offering fantastic value.
Neutral Nursery DĂŠcor
Opting for neutral nursery dÊcor means you won't need to totally redecorate should you wish to change things up a little. As the key to a neutral nursery is to create a clean and minimal aesthetic, this theme doesn't take much effort to execute and you won't be spending your precious budget on endless themed decorations! Needless to say, this doesn't mean your nursery is going to look dull as you can easily add pops of colour to suit the season or play around with texture to add interest and personality. 
Furniture that Adapts to Your Needs
Just because your furniture is going to start life in the nursery, doesnât mean that should be the limit of its usage. To give you better value for money and to avoid purchasing again later down the line, look for furniture that can last beyond your babyâs bedroom. For example, all Boori cot beds have the ability to transform into a toddler bed and some can even become full adult-sized beds.
Our Expandableâ˘Â cot beds convert into a full adult-sized single bed and our Convertible Plusâ˘Â cot beds take it a step further, converting into a full adult-sized double bed and cosy sofa at the same time!
Itâs not just our cot beds that are designed to grow with your family, our storage furniture is full-sized and our 3 Drawer Dressers come with a removable changing station so they can be used as a beautiful chest of drawers anywhere in your home.
Skip the Change Table
If your budget doesnât allow for a freestanding changing table as well as storage furniture, donât panic. As well as using a chest of drawers with an integrated changing station as weâve mentioned above, some change pads are designed to be used on any surface so you could transform your storage furniture into a change table instead.
Our Cloud Comfort Change Pad has clever anti-slip silicone pads, making it safe to use on a range of surfaces. Place it on a chest of drawers, bed or even the floor for fuss-free changing without the need for a change table.
We hope this inspires you to create your dream nursery (within your original budget!).Â
