ANY nursery theme can be gender neutral, for a boy, or for a girl! That said, some are easier to be completely neutral, and some tend to lean one way or the other, so that’s how I categorized them. The gender neutral ones can easily be made with a boy or girl in mind!

How to start decorating once you’ve selected a theme?

Okay, so you’ve got your nursery theme, now what?! It can be a little overwhelming to know where to start.

A good place to go is Pinterest!

For whatever theme you choose, type into the Pinterest search bar “theme nursery”, so if you chose coastal, you’d type “coastal nursery.” A ton of ideas will come up! Pinterest will also give you search suggestions, which might be helpful as well.

If you’re wanting to go boy, girl, or some other direction, type that in too! Boy coastal nursery, pink coastal nursery, surfer coastal nursery, etc.

Another idea is to take your theme to Amazon or Etsy.

There are a ton of pieces that go into a nursery:

• Crib sheets
• Wall decor
• Shelving
• Lamps
• Storage baskets
• Lightswitch plates
• Growth chart
• Rug
• Drawer pulls
• Nursery chair pillow
• Etc.

Start searching for those items with your theme! Find pieces you love and slowly your nursery will come together before your eyes.

I hope one (or a few) of these nursery themes were winners for you! Happy decorating.
