Ideas and Inspiration to Create a Cheery Baby's Nursery 

Often described as happy and stimulating, yellow in all its variations is a great color for a baby’s room. From hues with just a hint of color to almost shocking sunshine shades, it is conducive to just about any decorating style you may have. If you have a nursery theme in mind, you can probably find a yellow paint to go with it.
It’s easy to get started decorating a nursery in yellow. Just pick a shade at the paint store and put it on all four walls. The great thing about yellow is you won’t mind looking at for a long time, and it will adapt to different décor as your baby grows. Here are three ideas for a yellow nursery.

Yellow and Gray Nursery

This color combination is a recent favorite among design buffs and fits in with a more modern decorating style. If you want something different from standard-issue blue or pink, why not try this combo? A wash of lemony yellow on the wall pops against cool, calming gray accessories. For girls, look for pieces with stylized floral prints. Modern designs like stripes, polka dots, and shapes work if you’re decorating for a boy. You’ll find several bedding lines incorporating this color palette, or look for yellow mix and match items in different patterns.

Yellow and Blue Nursery

Like a clear, sunny day in spring, the combination of yellow and blue is a fresh alternative for your baby’s nursery. Adaptable for a boy or girl, you could pair sunshine yellow walls with a ceiling treatment designed to look like clouds in the sky. Then, continue the sky blue accents in the bedding, window treatments, and other accessories. Brighter turquoise works equally well with a yellow background. Draw attention to the color contrast with turquoise wall stickers—find them at crafts stores or online—in fun designs. You can use them in an under-the-sea theme or simple flower silhouettes for a more girly look.
