1. Enhance with Architectural Details
Not every house comes with fancy moldings, but that doesn’t mean you can’t spruce up your nursery. This idea involves creating an accent wall with a gorgeous color, like our best-selling shade, Current Mood, and adding statement molding. Check out our step-by-step guide for a full breakdown on how to achieve this stylish look.

2. Embrace the Unexpected: Go Monochrome
When most people think of monochrome, they imagine shades of white or cream. But why not try something bolder for your nursery? This delightful room uses one of our boldest pinks, Pop, to paint the walls, trim, and even the ceiling. The result is a surprisingly sophisticated space that both you and your baby will love. Using the same color on all surfaces creates the illusion of a larger room.

3. Combine White Walls with Bold Wallpaper
White paint is a timeless choice that never goes out of style. Painting your nursery with our truest white, Fresh Kicks, ensures that the paint will grow with your baby while creating a bright and cheerful space. For added fun, consider adding a bold peel-and-stick mural to introduce a splash of color.

4. Highlight with an Accent Wall
If committing to one paint color for the entire room feels a bit overwhelming, why not start with an accent wall? Take inspiration from this classic and preppy nursery, which features our most sophisticated pink, Wing It. The addition of this color adds warmth to the entire space and complements the navy and white floral wall art perfectly.

5. Have Fun with Two-Tone Walls
Double the fun with two shades of paint! If you’re torn between two stunning colors, there’s no need to choose just one. This woodland-themed nursery successfully combines two colors, Chill and Headspace. Not only does this creative combination make the ceiling look higher, but it also adds a fresh and airy feeling to the room.

6. Create a Pattern with Paint
Dreaming of wallpaper but working with a paint budget? Don’t worry! You can still achieve a unique pattern using paint. The pattern on the walls of this nursery was created with a brush and a little bit of our Seize the Gray paint. For best results, choose a pattern that you can apply freehand, giving it a handmade and non-uniform look.

7. Make Your Nursery a Multipurpose Space
Short on space? It’s disappointing to lose a guest room just because a baby is on the way. But don’t worry, you can have the best of both worlds. Paint the nursery with a sophisticated color like Wing It and keep a bed in the room. This way, it can serve as a cozy spot for overnight visitors and a perfect sanctuary for you to relax in after those late-night feedings.

8. Embrace a Boho Vibe
Keeping your nursery gender-neutral is a breeze when you embrace a boho aesthetic and add a coat of our Fresh Kicks paint. Using a bright white color helps create a clean and vibrant space that’s ready for a baby boy or girl. To enhance the boho style, incorporate colorful accents and rich textures to make the room feel warm and welcoming.
