Nursery Ideas

[gonnabeamum]

im trying to think of a theme to decorate our nursery, i dont want to do whinnie the pooh cause everyone does that and my friend has done it, we dont know the sex of the baby and aren't going to find out, so need something uni-sex and want something different x x

We've gone for NOSTALGIA by Mamas & Papas, it's a creamy white and mint green but with teeny accents of pale pink and blue so what ever the gender we can then accessorise with more pink/blue to make it for a little boy or little girl. We've started painting the nursery this past weekend and

Check out: www.mamasandpapas.co.uk under nursery interiors there are some adorable unisex nursery ideas in there.

Like you I didn't want to do pink or blue and I didn't want common themes like Pooh Bear or alphabets etc. I think Babies R Us do a grey/white theme too, again it's teddy bear related though. Something we wanted to avoid.

Good luck and do let me know what you come up with!! I love nursery interiors!!

Hi!

Ikea have some nice curtains and nice bed spreads. They are bright colours which I wanted with jungle theme, zoo theme, bright stripes etc. Quite unisex and quite funky too. Plus as it's Ikea it's cheap so we can change the curtains and stuff when I get bored of them!

I'm not a big fan of the pink for a girl, blue for a boy thing and i have always hated the colour yellow so mine is going to be an oatmeal type colour on the walls with dark wood furniture and maybe i love my bear or bears day out (i think it is called) curtains, and maybe some framed pictures on the walls.

It depends on whether you want to do a complete set or do it all yourself...
Next have a few nice bits & vertbaudet, i just had cream walls with mine with some lollipop lane bits in, very boring but looked ok. This time im going to find out the sex so can plan a bit better.

I quite like some of the green & yellow

if i was doing it again... i wud do all brights like a rainforest theme all bright and massive murals on the wall also its not sooo babyish that u have to redecorate too early xx

 

[sexyamy2005]

were team yellow and went for the jungle theme from mothercare,

i love it, hated the abuse we have got from people saying your decorating your nursery yellow and green, yup its a 13" square room, it can take bright colours, and we have decorated & furnished it all including cot, wardrobes, paint & cot for less than £250 so when babys here i can change it in a few years time when all they want is thomas or peppa pig or something,

theres a thread of how people have decorated there nursuries here:
