Guest Picks: A Gender-Neutral Nursery

Arianna Belle says:

Thank you for including my pillow Dana!

Cathy Lara says:

Congratulations, Dana! I love the wooden toy and changing pad cover you picked out. But I have to admit that I am not a big fan of the crib color. It makes me a bit sad to think of a little one in there!

Alex B says:

Great concept, although I would think gender neutral doesn't necessarily mean neutral tone. Kids love colour! I'm sure there's a pop of colour up your sleeve.

madfoot says:

I agree with alex ... once the kid comes you're going to wish you had something colorful or high-contrast for him/her to goggle at

I've never understood the fussy pink vs studied blue concept. whatever happened to kids and parents who love yellow, green, orange, purple, etc!. Let's have a world where we celebrate our similarities and enjoy our differences. SA

Or, you can do what we did and have an interior designer/decorator (in our case, my aunt) learn the gender of the baby and do the nursery for you. She came up and spend an entire weekend painting, arranging, and decorating the most fabulous nursery in the world, then shut the door and locked it. We found out our baby was a boy at the hospital, and had another huge surprise in the nursery waiting at home. So fun!

Dana Miller says:

I really want the nursery to flow with the rest of our small home. We prefer a light and airy feel with pops of color against a neutral backdrop. Once baby is grown and able to voice his/her opinion, I can easily switch out some of the accessories (pillow, rug, etc.) for bolder options.
