Furnishing and equipping a nursery for a new arrival can be a very exciting and enjoyable project. Also, if one gives it some thought and invests careful planning, the nursery could well be a very comfortable asset for you and your new bundle of joy.

If you are one of those parents who want to make no compromises when it comes to their child, then Amish nursery furniture is something you are likely to be considering. Amish baby high chairs are probably something that you may want to leave off for a little later, because they will come into use when a baby is old enough to sit up and start solids, which is usually at about 6 months or more.

What you will probably need to furnish your nursery are the things that a new born will need immediately such as a crib, and there are many options of Amish baby cribs, which you can choose from. These make a lot of sense for a multitude of reasons: for one Amish baby cribs, like all Amish furniture, are made the old fashioned way using solid wood and few in any chemicals and none of the toxins that a new born may well be sensitive to.

Another reason why Amish baby cribs are a great idea is their versatility: many of these cribs are designed in a way that the crib can be converted into a day bed for use during the time when the baby is not sleeping. Also when the baby is older and does not sleep as much during the day, this will come in very handy. Other cribs may be limiting in that the baby will shortly outgrow them. An Amish baby crib however is a great investment for the future, since many have the option of being made to expand as a child grows and can even accommodate your child till he or she turns into a teen!

You can buy a set of Amish baby furniture or you can buy individual pieces such as Amish chests that are an excellent storage option for a nursery. Some Amish chests come equipped with a surface that can double as a changing table so that you don’t have to incur the extra expense of a changing table which is so essential for the first couple of years of a baby’s life.

Another excellent option for a nursery are Amish gliders: not only do they add a lovely cozy touch to the nursery, they are a practical option for rocking baby to sleep or even for a tired parent to grab forty winks while their baby is having a nice nap. Amish gliders are beautiful, comfortable and may even be ideal for bottle or breast feeding a baby, or just cuddling and talking with the baby for some great quality bonding time!

To all of these you can choose to make other additions such as a nightstand or a dresser or a hutch or an armoire, and you have a warm inviting nursery that is also practical and handy for the job of looking after a new born baby!
