Shelves & Bedside Tables
It may seem a luxury to be considering such piece of furniture for a baby's room, but inevitably baby will grow into a child, who will have endless cuddly toys all of whom need to be kept close by, then all the special trophies that come home from each outing - special stones, shells etc.
If you were using a humidifier or night-light in the bedroom an ideal place to site either of these would be a bedside table - close enough to your child and solid enough to be secure. These small tables become a special to your child and will usually focus in room changes for years to come.
Coordinated Nursery Furniture
Once your child starts to become artistic you will find the need to display all manor of washing-up liquid bottle rockets, toilet roll castles to name but a few - all will need space on those shelves.
