How to Achieve Hygge in the Nursery

I’m sure you’ve heard of it by now, hygge (pronounced hue-guh), the Danish movement that basically encourages comfort and coziness. It’s flooding the interior design world, and it’s certainly something we can get behind for the whole family and especially for baby. Now just because baby’s crib is supposed to be blanket free doesn’t mean you can’t make the rest of the nursery a super cozy space. Here our ideas for achieving the art of hygge in the nursery. 

Layering textures always makes for a cozy space just ready for cuddles.
