Nursery Ideas - Neutral

I am stressing out a little...we are not finding out what we are having and I am not sure what to do with the nursery. I have been to Baby's R US and Target and don't really like any of the crib bedding they have.  Any suggestions??  I would like to get the room started but I feel like the bedding needs to be first...

Re: Nursery Ideas - Neutral

  • Look online at other places.  Here's some other places I've found online:

    www.rosenberryrooms.com

    www.babybedding.com

    www.etsy.com

    Also consider doing separates...you can buy a crib skirt you like and sheets.  Especially if you don't plan to do a bumper and use a blanket.

  • I am planning to find the sex, however we are keeping everything very neutral! We picked out a woodsy theme for our nursery. We live in the woods/rural area and love the outdoors. We picked out this bedding set. I really like it. You could always go with ducky's or monkeys and keep the nursery green or yellow. Also online has some very good selection. The websites the PP are good.. https://www.babysupermall.com is a good place too.

  • DH's cousin did a jungle theme and found some beautiful gender neutral bedding.

    If we weren't going to find out, we were going to pick a place in the world that we love and make that the theme. (Which we are stealing if we have a girl... the room will have a Paris theme because of the name we chose.)

    You could also just go with gender neutral colors and have two themes in mind for when the baby is born and then finish decorating the walls etc. post baby.  

    Good luck!

    We are going to find out the sex, but we are still going to do a neutral nursery.  DH's aunt is going to make us a quilt with animals on it, but we are not going all out with decor.  I am terrible at decorating. 

    I think the Bump had nursery ideas, or dont get a bedding set (only need sheets anyways) and do pastel colors or something.

    Look on Amazon, they have a lot of stuff there.

    My husband has picked this set as well! There is also a really cute one at BRU by Carter's.  https://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3500119

  • Find a coordinating fabric set and get pieces made. We're going to find out the sex, but that's what we're doing. I don't like any of the sets available at BRU and similar places.

  • For DS we were team green (as we are this time) so we didnt a jungle animal theme. We got the bedding at BRU and all the matching stuff there as well. We decorated the room with these little wodden animals I found at Michaels we stuck them on the walls (up near the ceiling) as a border around the room. I found a lot of different bedding I liked that could go either way when I was pregnant with him. I picked the animal theme then had about 5 different beddings I was going back and forth between. It might be easier if you narrow down your search and pick colors, or a theme before you go on your search it can be very overwhelming. I would just google the theme you decide on and go from there.

  • Regardless of the gender of our baby, we are still doing brown/green in the nursery and found a couple of cute bedding sets at Target

  • We found our neutral bedding at Target.com - they have many, many more options than they do in the store. And with people making most of their purchases online now, it works.

  • We got ours from Caden Lane (ordered through another site, Giggle Brush Designs) on Black Friday for 30% off (the only way DH would let me get this set).  They only have 2 gender neutral sets.  There was a couple I was checking out through Serena and Lily, but I liked ours through Caden Lane a bit better. 

    Here is the bedding:

    There were a couple places on Etsy I was looking at, but at the end of the day, it was the same cost as ordering it through Giggle Brush Designs.

    I also really liked some of the sets Land of Nod has and PB Kids has a new gender neutral elephant design that is pretty cute!

  • We decided on Noah's Ark for a neutral theme and I couldn't find anything I really liked until I found a Cricut cartridge with amazingly cute little animals on it. Now, I'm making our own "wall paper" and decorations out of these:
