In the same winning format as Kids' Rooms, Baby's Room is a brightly illustrated guide for parents looking to create the ideal room for a new baby. Part inspiration, part how-to, the book's photographs and clear descriptions show that preparing a room for a newborn need not be difficult or expensive. The front half is a discussion of the various components of a nursery. Here the author considers basic elements such as color, lighting, and furniture, and covers everything from cribs to diaper disposal. The second half profiles 15 examples of great nurseries and offers 10 step-by-step projects.

Projects but no great ideas
I was somewhat disappointed in this book in that it was really geared towards girls' rooms. Some of the ideas were helpful. But in looking back, I don't think that I should have bought this book. The photographs were very limited as well. I was looking for ideas and I didn't find them here.
classy baby room ideas
okay, i admit, i'm very picky when it comes to decorating. i recently had a baby and when it came to designing her room, i was in a quandry as to how we ideally wanted to decorate it. I'm a designer, so i prefer to stray from the pack and create a unique environment, yet still maintaining comfort and class. This book brought it all together! The colors, themes and choice of furniture were ideal to what we had in mind. No corny ideas in this book. The rooms are designed so that they can grow with the baby for a while as well. I'm hoping our little girl will enjoy her garden theme for at least 5 more years :) If you're one to do projects, the book instructs you on how they created a few of the room accents...a floral coat rack, for example.
Great ideas, great photography, great book.
