The Best Baby Room Ideas

When decorating a nursery with a baby's gender in mind, typically you'd opt for soft pinks for a girl, or pastel blues and greens for a boy. If you're in a rented property or just not wanting to paint the walls, why not explore our coloured nursery furniture? We have a range of pink, brown and green options that are a good jumping off point and will bring a fresh feel to your setup, without any major DIY needed.

Once you've decided on a colour palette, you can introduce more character to the room by adding patterns such as florals or woodland creatures through wallpaper and decorations.

Now you've got to the fun part: decorating the nursery. Add personality to your space with vibrant wall art, like East End Prints' Cosmic Kid or London Bus Zoo graphics. Or, keep the vibe of the room serene with painterly foliage artwork.

Then, you can add softness via cosy rugs and atmospheric lighting – anything that dims is perfect for those nighttime feeds. We're loving this checkerboard lamp with its scalloped shade and patterned base.

Finally, add shelving and decorate with sentimental keepsakes like a framed photo from their first few weeks. This bobbin-style frame is great for introducing texture and depth to a book shelf.
