You don't have to paint your baby boy's room blue anymore or your baby girl's nursery pink. House Painting Info says that nowadays even some girls have blue on their walls with clouds and rainbows; boys may have some pink in their nurseries as part of a tropical sunset theme. Whatever colors you choose, consider using low- or nonvolatile organic compound paints to promote healthy indoor air quality for your baby. - Home and Garden Television reveals the colors used for an elegant baby girl's room. Walls are painted pea green. Wall and ceiling trims are painted gold, as are fleur-de-lis and calligraphy monograms. Window trims are painted brown. Brown and white bows and teddy bears are subtle hints that it is a nursery.
- Using chocolate brown as the main color for a boy's room provides a warm, safe and calming ambiance. Paint the ceiling and trim white to bring light into the room and create more visual space. Accessorize walls and furnishings with green and blue blankets, decals and curtains.
- Alternate between bright orange and lime green to create a vibrant and welcoming girl's room. Paint two of the walls green with orange trimming and accents and vice versa. Use similar shades for choosing the bedspread, curtains, pillows, closet organizers and crib canopy. Hints of lavender or rose pink also work with this color scheme.
- According to Snugabub, a yellow room creates a cheery atmosphere and symbolizes hope. Create a boy's room by painting the room yellow with grey accents. Add hues of orange, brown and blue. These colors work well if you would like to incorporate a safari theme.
