Most parents decorate a baby girl’s nursery in a very feminine style. When choosing a color and theme for a baby girl’s nursery many parents first thoughts are something pink, and while a pink nursery is a wonderful choice, there are several other colors that are equally ideal for a little girl. Let’s take a look at some of the color choices, including pink, that work well for a feminine nursery for a baby girl.

All white is a wonderful choice and can be made to look either feminine or masculine according to how it is accessorized. Since we are talking about nurseries for girls, we want to go the feminine route. There are several nursery crib bedding selections that are solid white that feature lace and ribbon embellishments that would be absolutely stunning for a feminine nursery. White bedding for a little girl is also pretty when it’s trimmed in another color. Depending on the look you are after that color can be either pastel or bright.

After pink, lavender or shades of purple are some of the most widely used colors for little girl’s nurseries. Purple or lavender baby bedding can be found in both solid color fabrics as well as various printed fabrics. Many bedding sets that feature some type of garden or flower scene use lavender as a main color. Lavender combines well with pink, white and with several shades of blue and green.

While blue is traditionally the color for a little boy, blue can also be used for a girl. Shades of periwinkle blue and teal or peacock blue are especially suited for a little girl.

Green is a soothing color that like blue can be used for either gender, but can be made to have a feminine appeal. One of my favorite, extremely feminine uses of green is in the Storytime bedding collection by Glenna Jean. This set combines green and pink in satiny fabrics for bedding that is all girl.

Pink of course is great. Combined with other colors or alone, when you use the color pink, there is no mistaking the room as meant for anyone but a girl. If you like ultra girly, there are lots of bedding sets that will work for you. If you prefer something more tailored, but you want to use pink, you will find lots of choices as well. Pink and brown is a hot combination and there are quite a few bedding choices using this particular color combo.

Yellow or shades of orange deserve a mention as well. In fact almost any color can be used to create a feminine nursery for your little girl.
