Looking for nursery ideas that will work for either gender? These gender neutral nursery ideas are perfect for repurposing and reusing for multiple children.
There are so many different gender neutral nursery theme ideas out there. It can get a bit overwhelming!
This post is about coastal-inspired gender neutral nursery decor. It includes shades of white, tan, blue, and green, woven accents, and classic pieces for the perfect nursery.
Gender Neutral Nursery Chairs
It’s time to shop for baby furniture! One element you don’t want to forget is a nursery chair. You’ll get so much use out of it, nursing, relaxing, or for nap times. Any of these classic options are perfect for any gender.
While blue is typically associated with boy nurseries, try mixing blue with yellow, green, and other soft neutral colors in different patterns and prints. This is a great way to make a blue color palette work for either gender!

If the chair doesn’t recline, consider adding an ottoman like this one as a footrest in the baby’s room.
Whimsical Lighting Fixtures
Spruce up your gender-neutral nurseries with light fixtures! You can add a fancy overhead light like an interior designer or keep it simple with stylish lamps.
As you can tell, natural materials and scallops are my favorite details on lamps. One tip I have heard from new moms is that cordless or touch lamps are easy to turn on and off during night feedings and early mornings.
You will probably want a small table with a lamp next to the rocker. I love this one in my living room next to an accent chair. It would work great in a neutral baby room!

I love using shades of blue regardless of the gender by incorporating other elements that work for both boys and girls.
Farm animals, trees and plants, hot air balloons, clouds, and sunshine are great options. Scallops are another sweet detail for both boy and girl nurseries!
Stylish Cribs and Changing Tables
Cribs and changing tables are must haves for a gorgeous neutral nursery. I prefer to keep it simple with white. These are the top rated white cribs and changing tables for a gender neutral nursery.
The best part? You can easily style a sleek white crib with any wall color, decor, or other home accents.

Style it with patterned crib skirts, sheets, or a pretty piece of wall art.
Bedding – Crib Skirts, Sheets, Pillows & More
Adding a scalloped bed skirt is one step that will upgrade the look of your crib. A bolster pillow is perfect for the crib, too!
Have fun picking out neutral sheets and baby blankets to style the crib!
Storage and Organization Picks
We all know how many baby products there are and how clothes can easily get piled up. Start with a sleek dresser in one of the earthy tones and opt for neutral toy storage solutions like these rattan baskets.
These are the ultimate definition of practical but stylish! Neutral shades make it easy to put these in any nursery.

You can easily hide storage solutions under the crib, too. Things like children’s books and baby essentials are great for this. Or, go for a large dresser to house a lot.
Artwork & Decor For Any Nursery
Don’t forget the finishing touches like artwork and decorative accents in a gender neutral nursery. Rattan is one of my favorite elements to incorporate!
Pretty photo frames are also a great idea. You can put newborn photos in these for a personal touch! Using a variety of textures can help add visual interest, too.

Especially if you have a white nursery, colorful wall art will keep things gender neutral but add some interest and personality to the white walls.
Wallpaper And Curtains
Consider a neutral base for the walls, regardless of your baby’s gender. It may make it easier to design the rest of the space, especially if you don’t want to go the traditional blue or pink route.
Looking for bedroom paint color ideas? We’ve got you covered!
An accent wall with a wallpaper print that would work for either gender could be a great idea! Or, simply adding curtains can add soft accents to your beautiful space.
