Colors to choose for a nursery room
With so many colors under the sun to choose from, a general consensus is to go with calming and relaxing colors. A nursery will be a place that you’ll frequently visit and can either become an eye sore or a place that you find joyful. Choosing paint colors for a children’s room doesn’t have to be difficult. It can be as easy as picking a color you adore, to thinking about which color would make the space feel larger or cozier.
Neutral Nursery Color Ideas || For those that don’t want to switch up wall paint often!
If you want a neutral feel to the room because you plan on having more kids and don’t want to change it later on, rely on the universal blues, greys, and beiges. It can have a more pinkish tint or a grey undertone and still be gender neutral.

Everything about this nursery is cohesive. The light neutrals, pinks, yellows, and tan, make a relaxing room that anyone would want to be in. The wall color is a great example of a neutral paint color that you can reuse with each child you have.

For those that like a little more color in the room, a relaxing blue with mixed undertones is a great choice! Add in a little wallpaper and a trim to balance a deeper color to prevent overwhelming yourself.

Greys, tans, and the lightest of blues will coordinate perfectly together like this photo. This wall color is such a clean look and you can add in almost any decor to the nursery that will match without having to worry.
Popular Color Choices
Upward

Upward is the top color according to online retailers: This is a beautiful light and airy blue color. Use it from the bottom to the top of the wall. Use this on a few walls or create an accent piece with this color.
Agreeable Gray

Similar to the number one color, this similarly trendy color is a light airy feel.
Alabaster

An off white color can be used for the entire room. Sometimes when you use only white, you have a very sterile and uninviting look unless you decorate it. Using an off white can definitely help fix that issue.
Peach Fuzz Patone

My personal favorite color are the lighter pinks. This might not be everyone’s first choice, especially those that are going for a more gender neutral look.
Other Lovely Paint Colors to Use in a Nursery or Children’s Room
Try using: olive green, tan, browns, and light orange or yellow. Any of these colors can be broken up by using them as an accent piece on the wall or by using wallpaper. Soft, simple, and sweet wallpapers will blend in well with bold colors that would otherwise be extremely overwhelming to use for the entire room.
