XP- purple or green nursery?

blueandgray · April 2013

XP on the nursery board, but i have to make a decision by morning and figure i may get quicker responses from you guys up with your LO or pg insomnia tonight

I was team green turned pink! Our house is in the final stages of renovation and my fil is here this weekend and offered to paint the new nursery for us. I have given it zero thought, was just planning on keeping it the neutral tan the upstairs was being painted. But now that we know girl, I want to take him up on it, but means i have to buy the paint in the morning. I've been looking at pictures and think ill get a cherry blossom branch/tree decal for one wall, but otherwise keep things pretty simple.

Would a muted dusty lavender color or soft sage green wall paint be better? I don't want it to be too purple. The carpet is a neutral light tan, lots of thick white trim work. Thoughts? Or if you have a green or lilac nursery, share a pic!

Personally, I like neutrals as I'm not a fan of pink or purple walls for little girls. You can add and switch up colours with bedding and decor as she gets older. Just my opinion tho.

I also like green. My little girl's nursery is green with a cherry blossom tree decal, and it came out looking great IMO.

I love lavender and sage together... Though green walls seeing is easier to find matching greens than matching purples that dont clash.

Another vote for green. It seems like it would be more versatile and will grow with her better. Congrats on your little girl!

In think the sage would be really pretty with a cherry blossom decal. Are the blossoms pink?

I love green for a nursery and think green and pink are a great color combo. My baby's room is a bright green that I love. Sorry, tinypic isn't letting me upload right now.

Our nursery is green and I love it! It's very soothing and versatile.

I think sage green would look very nice with the cherry blossom decal :]

Ours it's actually a sageish green for our DD and I really like it. It already was that color and we just kept it because I think of it as a pretty neutral color that you can do a lot with!
