We’ve partnered up with Gugu Guru to bring you a beautiful Sophisticated Safari Nursery!
With the enormous amount of products in the market and the highly visual and design-centric mom of today, the bar has been set high for brands in the baby category when it comes to aesthetics. These days, moms are looking to add products to their registries that will fit within their existing home decor and baby gear that generally looks less babyish.
Long gone are the days of primary colors and playful almost cartoonish illustration styles. New moms and moms-to-be are looking to up the level of sophistication when it comes to their baby registry product selections and nursery design.
From accessories to nursery centerpieces, here are some examples of how brands for all budget types are using the historically popular nursery theme – Safari – but taking it up a notch in terms of style.
Animal Kingdom 3 Piece Crib Bedding Set
The muted gender neutral color palette of this crib bedding from Just Born is a far cry from some of the bolder safari colors of the past.
Restoration Hardware Animal Bust
Restoration Hardware has always offered upscale decor with a nod to the past and the brand’s RH Baby collection is no exception. This wool felt animal bust is sophisticated but with a sense of humor.
This portable baby bed / co-sleeper / infant lounger has taken the baby world by storm. The brand offers fun covers and accessories, like this zebra “So Safari” print.
This rattan hamper gives a great global eclectic touch to any nursery. It comes in three different shades including white.
This rug from Pottery Barn is playful but not babyish and is a great accent to a modern nursery – especially for those who don’t want to go overboard with the safari theme.
Monica Banks is the mother of two children and founder of Gugu Guru – a new online baby registry that makes highly personalized product recommendations based on a mom’s lifestyle and personal style. When she’s not helping expecting and new moms, you can probably find her dancing and singing with her two kids and husband in their Long Island, NY home.
