Dirt Bike Nursery Ideas

Parents-to-be who are die-hard dirt bike enthusiasts will desire to incorporate their favorite sport into the life of their newborn child. Though he will be too young to attend an actual race, you can encourage his interest while he is still a newborn. Create a dirt bike themed nursery for him and as he grows he will learn to love and appreciate the sport just like you do.

  1. Walls

    • Adorn the walls with dirt bike accents to give an eye-catching appeal to the nursery. Paint the walls a light solid color such as sky blue or a soft yellow to enable wall accents to stand out. Border the walls with dirt bike wallpaper exhibiting bikers in motion atop a dirt mountain. Place large dirt bike decal stickers across the walls or hang framed pictures of dirt bikers. If you have strong artistic abilities, consider painting mud splatters or a dirt bike scene on one of the nursery's walls.

    Floor

    • Though the floor will not be the main focus of the nursery, it should still incorporate aspects of dirt biking. Consider picking carpeting in hues that resemble dirt or mud such as a dark tan or a rich chocolate brown. Coffee-colored or mahogany hardwood flooring will serve as an alternative to carpeting and still offer the dirt bike vibe to the room. Regardless of the type of flooring used, place dirt bike themed area rugs featuring racing bikers or dirt bike industry logos on the floor.

    Furniture

    • The nursery will not be complete without the proper furniture to coincide with the dirt bike theme. Rustic brown furniture will be a fitting touch. Enhance the room with a cherry wood or dark oak crib and matching furniture such as dressers, nightstands and a rocking chair to offer a masculine sports-minded appearance. Place dirt bike themed lamps on the nightstands and night lights in wall sockets. Consider positioning a bookshelf against a wall containing dirt bike-themed children's books that he will be able to read one day.

    Bedding

    • Encourage sweet dreams for your newborn with comfy dirt bike themed bedding. There are a plethora of ready-made themed bedding sets including the comforter, sheets and bed skirt. If you have adequate sewing skills, pick dirt bike themed fabric and consider sewing your own bed covers and shams. Hang a themed throw off of a rocking chair to keep handy for chilly nights or a themed quilt across the wall. Place checkered black and white pillows resembling dirt bike racing flags on additional chairs.
