Not for wallflowers: flowers on the wall! A gorgeous mural or printed nursery wallpaper makes a style statement in this nursery for girls. This mama-to-be went even further by adding faux taxidermy in flower crowns and chains. Some girl nursery themes are not meant to be subtle—and we’re loving this example!

The number one rule in decorating girl nurseries today? There are no rules! It’s a great time to ditch anything you ever thought about green nurseries and consider a shade of sage (or emerald! Or mint!) for your little lady’s corner of the casa. Bonus: pink and green look amazing together, as seen in this cactus-themed nursery.

Woah. That is the audible emission that first comes out when admiring this breathtaking baby girl nursery. The pull-out couch is genius; the balance of mint and ballet pink are darling; the llama is squeeze-worthy; and the cot art is divine. But that chandelier?! Make a space solidly hers with a loud, lovely lighting fixture like this and the rest will fall right into place.

If you’re not ready to whip out a can of paint (or two) to go all-out with your rainbow girl nursery theme, you can create a bright rainbow theme in subtler ways...a là the nursery for girls pictured here. An eye-popping pouf + multicoloured blanket + some strategically integrated pom-poms = a happy, sunny space for your babe to rest her head.

A transparent dollhouse bookcase that’s now for knick knacks will later become her most beloved toy. Every little girl’s room deserves a dollhouse and this lucite version is so special. 

Simple Shapes Girl Nursery Decor

A round mirror, boxy dresser, and other basic shapes in the structural elements of the room allow for creative additions down the road. For example, when your little lady turns 2 and insists on a dress-up rack in the middle of all this, it’ll be much easier to incorporate when the bulk of the room is simple in form.

Think beyond the pink! Purple might not be seen as often in a girl’s nursery, but it’s a beautiful, feminine colour that will bring on the ooh’s, the aah’s, and hopefully some zzz’s, too.

Never fear, shiplap-lovers, farmhouse is decidedly not over, and shiplap isn’t going anywhere any time soon! Give your cute baby girl’s nursery a wholesome, beachy, breezy feel with real or faux shiplap on one wall and bring in elements of your favourite pastels to round out the darling space.

It’s the simplest touch you can add to your little girl’s nursery, but might just end up being the detail that speaks the loudest! Invest in a pink or purple felt sign and switch out the phrasing when the mood strikes. Make sure to snap a picture each time you change it; she’ll love looking back on your words of wisdom and whimsy to her in a few—or many, many—years down the line.
