Decorating with a Baby Ducks theme.

A Baby Ducks Theme

Everythings just ducky . . .

This is a great theme for a baby's room, whether it be for a boy or a girl.

This is also one of those themes that can use a color scheme that will go with many themes making it usable as your baby grows older.

When you think baby ducks, you naturally think yellow for the ducklings and blue for the water. But don't forget green! It works too.

On the right, the Ducky Love set from KidsLine uses a soft green along with the blue and yellow. But if you're into that limey green that's so popular right now, the Lil' Ducky set from Lambs and Ivy will work perfect!

The first set of wallpapers below has a red ladybug in the border which is great for pulling in a little bit of a bright color for contrast. This gives you artistic license to add some lady bugs or just some red accents to your baby ducks theme.

These wallpapers, wallborders and wallies can be found using American Blind and Wallpaper's Search Engine Just cut and past the pattern number into the search box, or just type 'ducks' into the search box.

This first set can be found with Pattern No: DZB1352. If you go with the blue wallpaper, use the yellow border and vice versa.

Little Suzy's Zoo is always popular. Even if you use the baby ducks wallpaper above, you could still use this small wall mural as an accent for the baby nursery.

Beds, Bedding and Accessories for a Baby Ducks theme room . . .

The bed and furniture . . .

If you paint or paper the walls with blue, yellow or green you can get away with natural wood tones or even white bed and other furniture. If however you leave your walls white, I'd pass on the white furniture idea. It's just too much white, and your furntiure gets totally lost in the room.

In one of the newsletters I mentioned that painted furniture with a natural wood top was popular. This would work great here.

Ducky Round Crib - Produced in the southeast United States by furniture experts this baby ducks theme crib is constructed of native hardwoods and features tapered legs secured by mortise and tendon joints which may include a canopy extension. The metal brace crosses under the wood mattress support for your peace of mind.

The leading mattress company in the juvenile industry supplies the mattress. Round Cribs Are Safer By Design: No Concussion Points, Increased Child Visibility, No Corners To Endanger Children. The Duck Round Crib Bedding coordinates beautifully.

Sweet and Simple Yellow - by Cotton Tale would work great for a baby ducks theme for boys or girls without getting too ducky! Add some soft blue, chambray or denim and you're set. (They also offer a Sweet and Simple Blue by the way.)

This would be the way to go if you're into the 'natural' baby ducks type of theme, rather than the cutesy baby ducks like the sets by KidsLine and Lambs & Ivy below.

"Ducky Love: 4-Piece Crib Bedding Set by KidsLine" - Includes: quilt - 4 sided crib bumper - fitted crib sheet with all-around elastic and dust ruffle with 12'' drop. Also has other coordinating accessories for the baby's room.

"Lil' Ducky: Baby Ducks 6-Piece Crib Bedding Set by Lambs & Ivy" - Set includes - quilt - bumper - dust ruffle - fitted sheet - diaper stacker and valance." Also has wall shelf, lamp, border, upholstered chair and several other matching items.

The Lighter Side's Sunshine Duck - Bright and perky duck in yellow plush moves her head, flaps her wings, and sings "You Are My Sunshine" when you press her wing. She would make a great accent and can sit on a shelf until baby gets a little older.
