When I was designing my daughter’s nursery I went all-in on a pink and floral theme. If it was girly, I wanted it for her room. I don’t regret the pink explosion that her room turned into, but as I go into the design process the second time around, I’m taking a more neutral approach.
Because your registry isn’t just a checklist, we’re here to help you choose what’s best for you. From moms and experts who have been through it all, these are our winners for The Everymom’s 2025 Baby Registry Awards.
And neutral definitely doesn’t mean boring or bland. Neutral earth tones can bring a calming vibe to a little one’s room and can avoid making gender-stereotyped decisions when selecting colors (though I still have nothing against a very pink or blue room!). Additionally, you may get a bit more bang for your buck with a neutral design. As your child grows and defines their favorite color and their own personal style, more vibrant accents can be easily added to the room without doing a total overhaul.
Here is a roundup of 25 of our favorite décor elements for a beautiful neutral nursery.
