14 stylish, affordable rocking chairs - nursery decor

• 6.14.2018

I have been excited to decorate a nursery for a long, long time now, and we will finally be moving into our house in a few weeks! We've made it this far (8 weeks with Otto) without one--we store extra baby stuff in the hall closet, and his changing table/dresser is in a corner of the living room--and it's been fine, so I was questioning recently about what else we'll need.

I picked out a rocking chair months ago when I was making mood boards, but now I was questioning if we needed one more big thing and if it would be useful past the newborn stage. I shared that question on this post on Instagram and the response was overwhelming--YES!!! So many people said they loved theirs and use it every day, even for bigger babies and toddlers.

But I've also seen comments that it's hard to find rocking chairs that are more affordable than the chicest $800+ ones... lucky for you, I've been comparing options for months for our nursery and I have lots of ideas!

There are lots of options for stylish rocking chairs under or around $300, if you know where to look. I found all 14 of these and linked them in the graphic below at the lowest price sources I could find. There are a couple splurges on there, but nothing as expensive as the ones you see in designer portfolio nurseries.

Only problem is, I was sure I was set on rocker #1 for Otto's nursery, till I did some more research for this post and found a few more choices!

Rocker or glider? Exposed wood or hidden base? Some of these even come with ottomans! Lots of choices. Many come in several colors, but I chose my faves in beige and grey below. So versatile.
