Help your baby get the best night’s sleep
There are so many decisions to make when it comes to creating the right space for your baby. Choosing the best nursery paint color is a major factor in creating a cozy, comforting space that’s restful and relaxing for both you and your baby. These seven paint colors will help you set the tone for your nursery and make a space you and your baby will love.
Muted tones of sage, mint, and moss bring a touch of the outdoors into your baby’s bedroom. Green is associated with relaxation, creativity, and serenity—and while you certainly want your little one to have a serene space, using a soft green can also help you relax. Keep your stress as low as possible by hiring a local interior painter to tackle the job so you can just enjoy the results. Continue the outdoor theme with botanical prints or low-maintenance plants.

If you’d rather keep your nursery neutral, soft browns, greiges, and grays can give you a good foundation for a neutral decor palette. Neutral walls also allow you to switch up the decor as often as you’d like without having to repaint, and can easily help bridge the transition from nursery to childhood bedroom with updated furniture and decor. Add warm wood furniture, textured accent pieces, and pops of color in wall art to keep a neutral nursery from becoming too bland.

Gone are the days of bubblegum pink walls—the modern pink nursery features muted pinks that are cheerful and fun without straining your eyes. For the parent who prefers a traditional nursery paint color, a soft pink gives you a pop of color that’s easy to accessorize. Want something a little brighter? Consider painting an accent wall in a complementary color that’s a bit more intense.

Love the look of white but want something a little softer for your baby to wake up to? A warm ivory gives the brightness and neutrality of white without the harsh glare, and makes an ideal backdrop for a wide range of decor choices. Starting with an ivory base allows you to mix and match almost any color palette with your furniture and decor accents, and is a great choice if you love to change up the look of a room but don’t want to repaint.

Test a color before you commit by painting large swatches on your walls and seeing how they look during different times of day.
Bring the tones of the sky and sea into your nursery with a soft, balanced blue. Whether you choose a pale tone or something a little stormier, the right shade of blue can evoke the calmness of a clear sky or a rolling ocean. Need an idea for an accent wall? For a little visual interest, a soft green can add the feel of nature to a sky blue room, while a sandy beige calls to mind a peaceful seashore.

Your baby brightens your day, so it’s only right to brighten their room with the color of sunshine. Long used as a neutral color choice for nurseries, today’s sunshine yellows are cheerful without being overpowering. Yellow acts as a great backdrop for many nursery themes, and will brighten your day every time you walk in—even by the light of a lamp in the middle of the night.

Glidden® Sweet Buttercup

Looking for an alternative to pinks and blues but still want some color in your nursery? Combine the two tones with a lavender wall hue. Lavender’s cool tones brighten up a room while still keeping a calming, cozy feel. This shade works well with white or wood furniture and a wide range of accent colors. It’s also a popular choice for children’s bedrooms, so you can avoid repainting it in a few years.
