Themes inspired by animals, forests, jungles, gardens, the sea, the sky and outer space, and travel imagery (remember travel and how much you used to love it before 2020 put a damper on it!?) are all visually stimulating themes that lend themselves to a variety of color palettes and can be cute and baby-approved as well as sophisticated. \u003C/span>\r\n\r\n\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: opensans-regular;\">Patterned wall paper, strategically placed stuffed animals (remember, for the sake of sleep safety, never put stuffies in baby's crib!), wall art, and textured rugs and throw pillows for your glider are all fun, affordable, and (most importantly for expectant parents) easy to find and install ways to achieve a nature-inspired theme.\u003C/span>\r\n\r\n\u003Chr />\r\n\r\n\u003Cdiv class=\"curalate-widget\" style=\"max-width: 900px; margin: auto; min-width: 240px; min-height: 240px;\">\r\n\u003Cdiv class=\"curalate-widget-container\" style=\"position: relative; width: 100%; height: 0; border-radius: 3px; padding-bottom: 100.0%;\">\u003Ciframe class=\"curalate-widget-iframe\" style=\"z-index: 1; border-radius: 3px; position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; left: 0; top: 0;\" title=\"Curalate Reveal: Interactive image with tagged items\" src=\"https://r.curalate.com/v2/widget/S37WSeXoeUjFWKpwzOMTvmsX69wCxO8w?replaceTabs=false&amp;spatialTagIcon=tag&amp;autoShowProducts=false&amp;shopButtonText=View Details\" width=\"900\" height=\"1079\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\">\u003Cspan data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">﻿\u003C/span>\u003C/iframe>\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: opensans-regular;\">\u003Cimg class=\"curalate-widget-image\" style=\"position: relative !important; z-index: 0 !important; width: 100%; border-radius: 3px;\" src=\"https://edge.curalate.com/v1/img/CEU5UQa8GVUFzYcTGPuVnRWaEu10xcWv9UA8rb6ZX_0=/d/l\" alt=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\" />\u003Cscript class=\"curalate-widget-script\" async=\"\" defer=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https://d30bopbxapq94k.cloudfront.net/js/curalate-widget-client-all-v3.min.js\">\u003C/script>\u003C/span>\u003C/div>\r\n\u003C/div>\r\n\u003Cp style=\"text-align: center;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: opensans-regular;\">\u003Cem>Click to shop!\u003C/em>\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\r\n\r\n\u003Cdiv class=\"curalate-widget\" style=\"max-width: 900px; margin: auto; min-width: 900px; min-height: 240px;\">\r\n\u003Cdiv class=\"curalate-widget-container\" style=\"position: relative; width: 100%; height: 0; border-radius: 3px; padding-bottom: 100.0%;\">\u003Ciframe class=\"curalate-widget-iframe\" style=\"z-index: 1; border-radius: 3px; position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; left: 0; top: 0;\" title=\"Curalate Reveal: Interactive image with tagged items\" src=\"https://r.curalate.com/v2/widget/F5utvUvmwKiKwAUXGT3LnH51B78F2mNw?replaceTabs=false&amp;spatialTagIcon=tag&amp;autoShowProducts=false&amp;shopButtonText=View Details\" width=\"900\" height=\"1080\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\">\u003Cspan data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">﻿\u003C/span>\u003C/iframe>\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: opensans-regular;\">\u003Cimg class=\"curalate-widget-image\" style=\"position: relative !important; z-index: 0 !important; width: 100%; border-radius: 3px;\" src=\"https://edge.curalate.com/v1/img/LZZw6bbB-L8Tt2Yag5JIVQpzIfxnungZW1GK5HsUARs=/d/l\" alt=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\" />\u003Cscript class=\"curalate-widget-script\" async=\"\" defer=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https://d30bopbxapq94k.cloudfront.net/js/curalate-widget-client-all-v3.min.js\">\u003C/script>\u003C/span>\u003C/div>\r\n\u003C/div>\r\n\u003Cp style=\"text-align: center;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: opensans-regular;\">\u003Cem>Click to shop!\u003C/em>\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003Chr />\r\n\r\n\u003Ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: opensans-regular;\">\u003Cstrong>Gender-Neutral Nursery Tip #2: Think Outside the Pink &amp; Blue Box\u003C/strong>\u003C/span>\u003C/h2>\r\n\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: opensans-regular;\">Just like nursery themes have a longstanding tradition of being somewhat narrow in scope, so do nursery color schemes, but exclusive adherence to pink and blue for baby's room is *so* two generations ago!

You may have ideas about brands and pieces you're interested from recommendations from friends and family--and that's a fantastic way to learn about what's out there that's beloved by real parents you trust--but if you're unsure, \u003Ca href=\"https://www.kathykuohome.com/designservices?utm_source=social&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=genderneutralnursery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">we suggest working with an interior designer\u003C/a> to  help you make the perfect choices.\u003C/span>\r\n\r\n\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: opensans-regular;\">One rule to go by though is to invest in versatile gender-neutral nursery basics that will easily fit into any decor or color scheme, but will also stand the test of time, ensure high safety standards, and even convert into toddler and big kid pieces as baby grows. For example, a rocker or glider in a shade like navy or cream is going to be easy to transition from a spot to rock and nurse baby to a reading chair for your child at any age; a convertible crib (that turns into a toddler bed) in a light beech wood tone is going to give you a neutral look and also last well into your child's preschool years; and popping a changer on top of a big-kid dresser is going to be much more versatile than buying a separate changing table. \u003C/span>\r\n\r\n\u003Chr />\r\n\r\n\u003Ch2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: opensans-regular;\">\u003Cstrong>Kathy Kuo Home Design Services\u003C/strong>\u003C/span>\u003C/h2>\r\n\u003Cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: opensans-regular;\">Feeling inspired?
