01
White Washed

White Washed

White walls are anything but boring with pops of color. Cream or white walls go with everything, making it a perfect hue for gender-neutral nurseries. Opt for colorful furniture and wall art, and you have a fun space for your little one. Source: The Land of Nod

Accent Wall

Accent Wall

Select one wall of your child's room to use as an accent wall. Pick a bright shade of paint, like aqua, for a big color impact. Break up the color with wall decals, which are such a fun way to add something special to your child's space — without dealing with something permanent.

Get Traditional

Get Traditional

Pink for girls, blue for boys, right? Instead of opting for bubblegum shades of paint for your little guy or girl, think about going with a hue that is just a bit darker, creating a lovely space that isn't overwhelming. Decorate with different shades of the same color for a welcoming room. Source: Paidi

Something Fun

Something Fun

Get dramatic and go with a wall color that's a bit different, like chalkboard paint, which makes any room even cooler! You might think a superdark shade of paint, like black, would make a room feel overwhelming, but it actually makes accent colors pop. Source: Domino

Wall Art

Wall Art

Even if you aren't handy, you can create wall art that makes your child's room special. Use painters tape to create straight lines across walls or even curved lines like in this room. Use different shades of one color to paint a neat accent wall that really draws you in. Source: Asucssi.com

Keep It Neutral

Keep It Neutral

Sticking with a neutral color theme is so soothing, creating a calm retreat for your child. Neutral doesn't have to mean white — gray, cream, and sage are also gender-neutral and can be accentuated with colorful artwork or bedding. Or go with colors a shade lighter or darker for a unified look that's like an oasis. Source: Restoration Hardware
