I really love the idea of b/g twins, until I started thinking about the nursery. I am so conflicted on where to even start.
Please share your b/g nursery so that I can get some inspiration.

Re: B/G Nurseries - Pls share yours
Thinking I might have b/g..i picked out bedding i really liked..& then went from there.. start looking at bedding for cribs & maybe you'll get different ideas
We went with Bumble Bees. We chose to paint the room a sky blue color with white trim and accent with greens, yellows, white and black. This is the pattern, from Babies R Us:

This is the set we bought.... still haven't finished the actual nursery yet!
Actually, our nursery looks very similar if you add a couple cribs and paint the walls orange
Before we found out the genders, I thought they were b/g and was already planning. : ) I really liked this one:

Don't base your decorating around crib bedding. You really only need sheets, and anything other than that and a crib skirt is a safety risk anyway. Look for rugs, wall art, and so on that inspire you.
Here's my first blog post about the nursery, but there have been a few changes/updates.
Have fun!
We bought this too! We painted the walls a dark khaki color and are in the process of adding a white tree silhouette in the corner. I also bought two T's (we are naming them Teagan and Tristan) and am painting them to match their blue or pink and brown polka dot sheets. We wanted to go with a simple look.
I totally agree with you, I dreaded doing my nursery and I didn't like it until now. And now I LOVE it!
I started with a fabric and based it off of that. I also agree with PP, that the bedding is not what you should base it off of bc most only/should use sheet and crib skirt. Anyway, here are my PIPs...
Sorry that the colors suck so bad! But the scheme was greens, yellows, purples, and browns.
