One of the
most difficult decisions to make before your new baby arrives is deciding how
to decorate the nursery, especially when the gender of the child is a surprise.
Instead of
opting for a traditional gender-neutral color such as yellow or green, try a
sleek shade of gray on the walls. Incorporating a splash of another color such
as a pale sky blue or a mint green into the bedding fabric can add a bit of
life to the room as well.
A gray-toned
wall graphic of a larger-than-life dandelion can be the solution for a parent
torn over the idea of wallpapering the nursery. Its simple design creates a
calm feel to the room and the flower's symbolism brings hope and wishful
thoughts into the new baby's living space without overwhelming the room with a
busy pattern.
Of course,
children grow fast and they outgrow not only their clothes but the style of
their rooms, too. Luckily, a vinyl wall graphic can come off the wall as easily
as it goes on, so parents can replace outgrown wall decor with new illustrations that
the child will love as they get older.
