Nursery paint shouldn’t be bland or boring. It should stimulate a young child’s imagination, creating a fun and joyful environment. But when it’s time for a nap, the colors need to have that restful quality too – a difficult balancing act to achieve. The key is to find colors that perfectly partner, adding both happy, inspiring and thought-provoking influences as well as more tranquil elements. Start with a neutral base and then add colors to it to create your ideal nursery. Yellow is a sunny, joyful color that works particularly well with children’s wallpaper and wall murals. You can go down the traditional pink and blue route, but why not try something a little more soothing with a green theme?
Nursery paints don’t need to be overpowering – they should be subtle, gentle, soft colors that create a warm and cozy ambience for both mother and baby. Pastels in charming colors like lilac and lavender, beautiful duck egg or the subtlest of greens are an excellent choice for a modern nursery. Add some characterful curtains and cushions, and a touch of wall art and you have a nursery created with love.
