Halloween Nursery Inspiration for Fall

With Halloween right around the corner, now is the perfect time to give your little one’s nursery a sweet and spook-tacular look and feel! Even if they are not yet old enough to enjoy trick-or-treating, you can incorporate fun, festive, fall elements into their nursery that will help them experience the joy of Halloween for the first time.

Here are some Halloween-themed design ideas for your baby’s nursery that have us absolutely bewitched:

The Crib 

Your baby’s crib is the feature point of their nursery. When you have a specific theme in mind, the crib can pull it all together. The Child Craft cribs we recommend below lend themselves perfectly to making your child’s nursery BOO-tiful!

Cranbrook 4-in-1 Convertible Crib in Ebony  

The Cranbrook 4-in-1 Convertible Crib in Ebony is great if you want a modern flare in your child’s nursery. The dark Ebony color fits a moody fall theme, but still brings an air of sophistication for year-round style. Since this crib is convertible, as your child grows, the crib evolves with them -- converting into a toddler bed, day bed, and full-size bed. This means that for many seasons to come, you can incorporate your child’s bed into a fit-for-fall design.

Denman 4-in-1 Convertible Crib in Midnight Gray 

For more of a transitional feel in your baby’s nursery, we suggest the Denman 4-in-1 Convertible Crib in Midnight Gray. The paneled headboard, stepped molding, and square spindles give this crib a sophisticated, luxurious look. If the name Midnight Gray hadn’t given it away already, this gorgeous, cool-toned gray color resembles the nighttime sky. Incorporating this color into your little one’s nursery invites cozy, nighttime vibes indoors. This crib also features 4-in-1 convertibility, so upgrading your child to a toddler bed, daybed, or full-size bed is only a simple conversion away.

Jordyn Euro 4-in-1 Convertible Crib in Biscotti  

The Biscotti finish on the Jordyn Euro 4-in-1 Convertible Crib just SCREAMS fall! The orange-brown hue evokes pumpkin spice, fall cookies, and acorns—basically, everything there is to love about the season. The crown molding and shaped side rails help solidify this crib as the stylish centerpiece to your baby’s nursery. As another convertible option, this crib can remain a focal point of your child’s bedroom for many years to come.

Dressers, Toy Boxes, and More 

No one has ever said they have “too much” storage—especially with a baby around! Despite their small size, they have a lot of blankets, toys, and clothes that you’ll need to find space for. We have three recommendations that provide the storage you need without compromising on style.

Denman Chest in Midnight Gray 

For a sophisticated, dark look that is suitable for Halloween, try the Denman Chest in Midnight Gray for your little one’s nursery. With features like large drawers, stepped molding and ball-bearing glides, this piece of furniture is both pretty and functional. Though the color will look good year-round, it especially lends itself to the palette of Halloween. Additionally, the space on top of the chest gives you lots of room for spooky décor!

Harmony Toy Box in Cool Gray 

The Harmony Toy Box in Cool Gray is a perfect, easy-access solution for all the toys and décor in your little one’s nursery that doesn’t need to be to be displayed 24/7. Store extra blankets that your little one will need as the fall weather gets chillier. Plus, once your child is old enough to access the toy box on their own, the lid has soft-close safety hinges to protect little fingers. Aesthetically, the Cool Gray finish provides the cool, fall tones you’re looking for, while being easy to mix-and-match with other pieces for year-round style.

Finishing Touches 

One of the most fun things about Halloween is the DIY décor, perfect for those who want to make their nursery look batty on a budget. Use black, orange, and purple construction paper to create cute paper decorations like pumpkins, bats, and candy. Tape these around your little one’s nursery to create a cute, fall-themed look without the high price tag.

Another idea is using strands of string lights to decorate with. When on, these lights look like little stars! Opt for lights with adjustable brightness and color so that they aren’t too bright for your little one. Combine these with other Halloween decorations for an alluring nighttime aesthetic. You can even repurpose these lights for the winter holidays! 

Our final suggestion is to visit your local craft store for some tiny decorative pumpkins! These come in a variety of styles, so it’s up to you to decide which pieces will fit best with your baby’s nursery. These usually cost between $1-$5 dollars, so you can budget more easily than with bigger, more expensive Halloween décor. You can place these on your child’s bookshelf, dresser or windowsill, for a unique fall nursery look.

Have a fang-tastic fall!
