Choosing nursery room decor can be one of the more fun things to do during your pregnancy journey. Picking a theme and deciding on colors and furniture is all a part of the magic that leads up to the moment it all comes together. And if you’re looking for minimalist nursery ideas then you’ve come to the right place.
Elizabeth Rees, founder of Chasing Paper, says you might think about adding some of your own style to the room—maybe some framed photographs or touches of the same colors you’ve used in other rooms, to make it an extension of your home. Looking for a quick and easy piece that can change as your baby grows? Think: wallpaper. Rees says, “Removable wallpaper is a great way to personalize a space for your little one without making a permanent decision.”
However you decide to dress up the room, we’ve got you covered.
