Furnishing Your Home to Create a Holiday Vibe

Types of Custom Furniture Options for Toddlers

11 August 2016 by Bonnie Cruz

There are a variety of furniture options when it comes to decorating your toddler's room. The problem with many of these options is their size. Most of the options are scaled to fit the average sized toddler with little consideration to the different sizes of children or growth they may face. For example, traditional toddler beds tend to be for an age range from 2 to 4 years old when, in fact, your toddler may have grown out of that. Other issues may be that the bed is fine, but other furnishings like tables and play sets are not. In these cases, you may look to custom furniture. Here are a few types of custom furniture options to consider for your toddler.

Personalized Furniture

Personalized custom furniture generally refers to furniture containing your child's name. This is the most common of custom furnishings for toddlers and is offered by most furniture companies both online and in store. If you are looking for a personalized option, you will likely be given the choice of the type of lettering, colours, and even design of the furniture. Personalized furniture can also include furnishings that fit your toddler's tastes. For example, hand-painted castles and dragons or dragon-shaped bookcases are considered custom furniture options.

Scaled Furniture

If you have a certain look you are trying to keep throughout your home, you may have a hard time finding toddler furniture that fits that look. For example, you may have a design plan in your living room, and a child's brightly colored play table won't do. You can go to a custom furniture builder and have them create a scaled down version of a table that could be used as a play table and match your decor or designer furniture themes you may want. This can be done with most of the furniture styles on the market and can help you keep your decor in the same theme or style.

Bathroom Furniture

You may have your toddler's bedroom and play area set, but the bathroom is a totally different story. You may find that traditional furnishings like chairs and stools for the sink, hooks, towel racks, and other items just aren't small enough. You can go to a custom furniture maker and have them make bathroom furniture that fits the theme and size of your child. This can actually make things like learning bathroom routines, hygiene, and toilet training easier since everything is on their level instead of yours.

There are many other styles and types of custom furniture you can have created for your toddler. The options are only limited to your imagination and your furniture makers abilities.
