Decorating the changing unit

The changing unit is the centrepiece of your baby's room. You and your baby will spend a lot of time there, especially in the first few months after the birth.

So why not turn this important place into a real highlight in your baby's room with a few creative ideas and lovely details that make nappy changing fun?

With these five changing table decoration ideas, you can make your baby's room more beautiful and practical in no time at all!

1. Cute wall decoration

Personalise the wall behind the changing unit to suit your taste!

How about a picture ledge, for example, on which you can display cute picture frames with the sweetest baby photos of your little treasure or small cuddly toys? Picture rails are not only practical for making efficient use of the vertical space above the changing unit, but also create additional storage space for nappies, care products and other important baby items. However, make sure that the shelf is firmly and securely mounted on the wall.

For the ultimate wow effect, we recommend adding a wall decal above the shelf! How about hot air balloons, playful birds or a colourful rainbow? Or maybe even personalised wall stickers with the name of your little darling? You're guaranteed to find the right design in our shop!

3. Clever storage solutions

Changing utensils, nappies, clothes - the baby's room can quickly become cluttered. But with clever storage solutions such as baskets and boxes, you can clear up the chaos and organise your changing table in no time at all organisation .

5. Small night light for nappy changing

A small night light on the changing table is particularly practical for providing gentle guidance in the dark. This way, you can find all nappy-changing utensils within easy reach without waking your baby - or yourself - completely. A discreet light is ideal in the nursery in particular, as it maintains a calm atmosphere.

Our tip: Small, cordless changing table lights can be placed directly on the changing unit and provide atmospheric lighting for every night-time nappy-changing session.

6. Enchanting baby toys

Baby toys simply belong in the baby room! It's important to invest in high-quality baby toys that will help your little one learn and grow.

Mobiles and music boxes are the perfect addition to the changing table. Not only do they provide visual and auditory stimulation, they also keep your baby entertained during nappy changes.

And have you heard of the Toniebox ? It's a small music box for children that stimulates their imagination and develops their auditory perception with a variety of stories and songs. It is very easy to use and the design is specially tailored to the needs of children. Even children from the age of one can operate the box themselves. And with a cute protective film from Limmaland, the box is not only protected from scratches and the like, but also looks great!
