Use grey in a gender-neutral nursery

There are many reasons parents choose to have gender-neutral nurseries. Before you have your baby you may not know what you’re having or you may not want to shower your baby with pink or blue.

If you want a gender-neutral nursery do not make it yellow. Yellow nurseries are out of style. A grey is a much softer and much more modern gender-neutral colour option.

 Finally, think of your nursery beyond the first year

As much as you want your baby to stay young they will not be a baby forever. Don’t make their nursery a zone that is only suitable for a newborn. Instead, purchase furniture that they can use for years to come.  For example, have a changing table that can be converted to a dresser and a crib that can be converted into a toddler bed. Good luck!
