Creating a Neutral Nursery Paint Colour Scheme
If you're looking forward to welcoming a new arrival but don't know the sex, you're no doubt looking to create a neutral nursery for your little one.Â
Soft shades like warm greys, gentle beiges, or creamy whites offer a soothing backdrop while allowing you to add personality through textiles, artwork, and accessories. Layer different textures like wooden furniture, woven rugs, and plush fabrics to bring warmth and depth. You can introduce subtle pops of colour with pastel accents or nature-inspired tones for a playful touch. With a neutral palette, it's easy to refresh the space as your little one grows, making it a practical and stylish choice.
You might want to consider painting your woodwork the same colour as the walls, often seen in period properties or painting them a lighter neautral or darker neutral as a nice contrast but keeping to a tonal look.
Don't forget the ceiling. Leaving it bright white can throw the whole scheme off so try a softer shade here or wrap the colour from the walls over the ceiling too for a harmonious finish.

Little Greene Green Stone light and dark combine to create a neutral nursery scheme with a hint of green. Pair with cream soft furnishings and wooden textures to complete the look.
Johnstone's Trade Birthday Suit is a neutral paint colour that has a fresh plaster look. A simple back drop to add pops of colour through furnishings and accents.
Using off-white colours in a neutral nursery allows you to add hints of colour with ease through soft furnishings, prints and bedding. It'll stand the test of time and grow with your little one too.
