Review
The most stylish nurseries aren't inspired by the Disney movie du jour. They're inspired by imagination. New mother Jessica Strand explores what makes a nursery special in "Baby's Room: Ideas and Projects for Nurseries"
In it, she combines practical advice with decorating ideas to help parents create nurseries that are safe and functional as well as attractive. The book discusses the basic components of a baby's room, including lighting, walls, windows, floors, storage and furniture selections. Strand also gives instructions for projects that can personalize a nursery, such as a mobile of family photos and an easy-to-make crib canopy.
The last part of the book looks closely at 10 nurseries and the elements that make them special. The rooms represent a variety of styles. -Chicago Tribune
