Teddy bears are so much more than the cute and cuddly toys adored by little ones–they have become a nearly global symbol of childhood itself, triggering feelings of tenderness and compassion. Teddy bear baby bedding has been in residence in the nursery for over a century and, based upon its continuing popularity among decorators, it is not likely to disappear any time soon.
Those racking their brains for ideas that might work in the room they are preparing for the son who is on the way should give strong consideration to using images of teddy bears in the space. Some might jump to the conclusion that while a teddy bear theme will leave them with an undoubtedly adorable room, that room will be full of traditional designs that clash with modern decor.
In fact, teddy bear baby bedding is now available in a host of different colors and styles, ranging from homey patchwork collections you might expect, to surprisingly funky ensembles in a host of bright and engaging colors not conventionally associated with this motif. Baby boy bedding should be the first thing you buy when you begin to decorate, and a little browsing online will give you an idea of how many teddy bear designs are available.
Those who are interested in the idea of a minimalist space full of uncluttered surfaces accentuated by bedding with a decidedly simple approach to color will undoubtedly be drawn to linen collections like Bear Hugs by Little Fern. This solid colored deep azure ensemble is trimmed with narrow widths of plain white, featuring understated embroidered images of teddy bears.

This is only one example of the many options open to you if you wish to create a teddy bear themed room for your son. Crib bedding that makes use of the teddy bear motif is also available in unique designs whose liberal use of a neutral palette guarantees that they will fuse well with a number of different home decor styles.
Sweet Dreams by Jessica Breedlove highlights images of both brown and white bears interspersed with blocks of solid parchment and sage and a chocolate/white gingham. The charming set’s low key approach to color works well in a number of different home environments while affording baby all of the coziness associated with a teddy bear theme–which will, along with your love and care, nurture him through the important first stage of his life’s journey.
You will love the linen collection called Bear Hugs by Little Fern if your style of decorating uses clear cut lines, open space and a simple, non frivolous attitude towards accessories, patterns, colors and layout. Subtle embroidered teddy bears on a skinny width of white outlines the main area which is a rich colored azure.
The nostalgia and warmth engendered by teddy bears are enjoyed and appreciated by parents and children throughout the globe. Teddy bear crib bedding is a classic style that will maintain its fresh appeal, and not look dated in a year or two.
If you are expecting a baby boy and can’t come up with the perfect nursery theme then you should think about decorating with teddy bears. Keeping a teddy bear not only makes a room adorable but also keep the traditional designs that normally clash with modern decor is often what people conclude.
Today’s teddy bear bedding designs span a wide range of styles and colors; from the most traditional gingham patterns to radical color and fun teddy bear motif presentations that might make you wish they made these bedding ensembles in adult sizes! Modern baby boy bedding is the first consideration as you plan a nursery’s decor, and a brief search of the web will show that there’s no scarcity of items with a teddy bear motif.
