Changing The Baby

The expectant parents, awaiting the arrival of a newborn, often busy themselves with a multitude of activities in preparation for the big day.  Many of those activities revolve around the decorating and furnishing of the baby's room.  A wonderful item to consider during this process is the baby changing table dresser combo.

For most people the changing table dresser has more than enough storage room for most of the necessary baby items.  You can easily designate one drawer or cabinet for all your diaper changing needs and dedicate the rest to the most commonly used articles of clothing.

Though you can purchase the changing table and the dresser separately, a combination piece often fits better in the average home nursery and can be used effectively well beyond the diaper changing years.   There are a number of ways to go about finding the right changing table dresser.  From garage sales and internet classifieds to designer brand furniture sites and stores, you can find something for just about every taste and budget.

If you plan ahead, you will have plenty of time to explore cost saving strategies.  Plus, if you are a little bit of DIYer, you can take that garage sale item and spruce it up with your own creative flourishes.  Remember that as infants become little boys and girls, parents are more apt to see the baby furniture as garage clutter and less as sentimental reminders of the past.  For that reason alone, you can find some tremendous bargains.

But if you want something new and are set on creating from scratch a freshly decorated nursery, there is no shortage of options for baby furniture.  From discount centers to department stores to the internet, window shop until you find the right item for your baby's room.

For starters, take a look at the Double Castle changing table dresser by Rumble Tuff.  The topper changing surface is sandwiched between two higher ends that each contains a drawer and cabinet.  The construction is both attractive and durable as it is built to last for a lifetime of changing and storage needs.

Another absolutely gorgeous piece is the Emily 3 drawer changing table made by DaVinci.  This combination item is ideal for the design-conscious parent with limited nursery space.  Three easy gliding drawers give you ample storage and the changing station on the top includes a foam changing pad complete with safety strap.

Obviously the list of possibilities is enormous.  Look at these few ideas above only as a springboard for your own ideas.  But if space is tight and your nursery is in need of a final touch, get yourself a changing table dresser and then get some rest.
