(firmenpresse) - MISSION, KS -- (Marketwired) -- 10/23/15 -- (Family Features) Whether you're working on a budget or simply looking to infuse a little handmade love, DIY projects can bring a special heartfelt touch to a baby's nursery.
Themes for a nursery range far and wide: everything from bold patterns and shapes to animals and objects representing favorite pastimes. You can go completely DIY and make items such as the crib skirt, bedding and curtains by hand, or you can expand on pieces you purchase with creative accessories such as this wall art or mobile, both created by the crafting experts at Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores. Each can be fully customized to match the color scheme and theme you have selected to welcome your little one.
