White Furniture

Has anyone used white furiniture for a boy's nursery? We may not be finding out what the baby is, and i really like white for a girl, but not sure for a boy. Do you think it is too feminine? I'd love to see pictures. Thanks!

  • We have white furniture, sorry no pics on this computer. We have tan walls and tan carpet, with white trim, white blinds, etc. We used chocolate and pale blue (trendy colors, I know) for bedding, accessories. I think it looks masculine.

  • It completely depends on the theme of the room, and the bedding you choose. Nautical themes look awesome with white furniture, and are good for a boy. Pastel colors and bunnies will match the furniture, but would scream GIRL.?

    If you stick with darker colors, you should be fine if you choose to not find out the gender. Just beware of very baby-cutesy stuff, because those tend to say girl a lot easier than boy. ?

  • I am ordering my white furniture as we speak and I do not know if it is a boy or girl yet.. I think it goes either way.

  • i don't think it's too girly at all. white works for both IMO
  • I was going to go with White furniture, but then thought about the crib going into the different stages.  I thought the crib and Toddler bed would be alright in white, but then when he reached the age to be in a fullsize bed he eventually, I didn't think it'd be very boy like.  Pretty far down the road but just what I was thinking about...

  • I have a girl with white furniture, but we plan to use this furniture for our next child regardless of sex.  A friend of mine has a little boy with white furniture and his nursery is adorable!  She used chambray blue with darker blue accents.  I wish I had pictures to share with you because it looks straight out of a magazine.  To me white is a neutral.
  • We're using white furniture for our boy's nursery and it's not too feminine at all, considering the other colors in the room are lime, chocolate brown, and navy blue.  No pics yet but will post some soon!

  • Ours is an antique white so it has a little brown in it.  I think it's okay.  Like PP said, the only thing I thought about is when he's bigger and it can be converted to a full bed.  Maybe we'll have a girl by then ;)
  • We are using white furniture in our baby boy's room. I don't think it matters as long as it looks nice. Once he is big enough we will be getting him a different bed. There is a pic in my siggy.

  • We are not finding out the sex and we have all white furniture.  Our nursery theme is rubber duckies.  The walls are dark and light yellow stripes and the accent color is blue (soap bubbles).

    I think it works well - perhaps not forever, but certainly for a baby and even a toddler.  I think by the time the child is maybe ready to go to kindergarden, we will change out some of the furniture.  The furniture was all really inexpensive (from Ikea), so that won't bother us.
