Gender-Neutral Nursery Ideas

If you’re preparing the nest for a new arrival and have resist finding out the gender of your baby, you may be in need of some nursery decorating inspiration. Or perhaps you simply aren’t excited by traditional colours. Either way, forget outmoded ideas of blue for boys and pink for girls and make life easier by choosing a colour scheme that will suit either gender. With a clever use of paint, prints, accessories and the right furniture, you can create a room you’ll feel proud to bring your baby home to and that will work for your family for years to come.

Create something truly unique with Modern Nursery Décor! Sometimes it's the small things that make the whole room...like a Modern Rug or some Modern Wall Stickers can really pull your design together. If you need it, we at #custardandmustardcraft can help out, just send us an email on custardandmustardcraft@gmail.com and we can explain all the options.


Introduce subdued pattern - A nursery decked out in bold printed wallpaper might not sound conducive to a peaceful space, but rest your eyes on this pale palette and see how the star pattern whispers “chic” thanks to the subtle beige. Quiet lullabies in the comfy rocking chair might make sleepless nights feel a little easier too. Available at custard and mustard craft... Read more on luxury rocking chairs in our previous post.


Preserve your interior style - For those allergic to bright colours and busy patterns, look beyond the paint shades typically associated with gender-neutral nurseries (such as yellow and green) and instead choose versatile sludgy shades, such as taupe or grey, more complementary to the rest of your home. Pair with a white cot, pastel accessories and soft muslin curtains for an understated nursery you’ll be happy to spend time in.


Stick ’em up - For parents-to-be in need of quick makeover solutions, or those creating a nursery in a rented house, wall decals could be a clever choice. Available in a vast range of designs, they’re so quick to apply you could even wait until your baby is born to choose an image that suits them. Just unpeel, stick and go!

Choose clever colours - Duck-egg blue is a soothing shade with just the right amount of saturation to add interest to a room without shouting for attention. It suits both genders and can be introduced in layers, to create a contemporary nursery you won’t quickly get tired of.

choosing nursery furniture

Having a baby is such an exciting time, but it is a long 9 months waiting for your little bundle of joy to arrive.  In that time however there is lots to prepare - baby names, baby groups, work and most importantly the nursery !  Looking for your dream nursery suddenly makes everything seem a lot more real.  I waited until the last possible minute before buying cot beds and changer for my twin girls (I wish I'd launched this blog/website before!), because there are lots of choices out there so a bit of preparation will hopefully make the decisions a bit easier! Firstly, there is the decision as to whether or not to buy a moses basket.  I did not buy one firstly because I felt a cot bed and a moses basket in the same space was going to cloak the nursery and would not have fitted well and I felt that my new born babies would outgrow it fast! Don't get me wrong, a moses basket is great as it is portable and can be used in your own bedroom during the...

Newborn Essentials – The "ALL"important baby checklist

Having a baby is both a daunting and exciting time.  Changes to your body can be scary and some find the pressures of pregnancy hard to cope with, while others are lucky enough to sail through having that ‘glowing’ look throughout.  Here I was at 33 weeks pregnant with my third child, finding pregnancy harder to bare the second time around.  Juggling my toddler twin girls, business and career took a toll on me at the end of the day! With my first pregnancy I was super organised and had my baby list organised well in advance with many items bought for the nursery and my hospital bag packed!  This time I realised I have not done anything – of course I had the twin’s old nursery furniture and clothes but was rather complacent with regards to everything else thinking I will never need that much really…  But I had to do some research and created that all important newborn checklist ! Lots of lists out there seem to omit, as far as I’m conc...

The Transition from Crib to Toddler Bed

This is my current situation as my girls are only 12months and are already attempting to make a jailbreak. This is so scary and I know its also scary for new mums and in order to avoid any domestic accident we tend to rush to switch up the beds. In my opinion, don't rush right out and buy a new bed the day your toddler first climbs out of the crib. He or she may not be ready to move to a new bed, and it may not be safe for him or her to be up and about during the night when everyone else is asleep. Buy yourself some time by lowering the crib mattress as far as possible, so the side rails are relatively higher and more difficult to climb over or buy a convertible crib that turns into a toddler bed with the removal of the front panel, this can make the change seem less drastic to a toddler. This is what we offer at Custard and Mustard Craft, making easy to transition for your toddler. Another reason parents make the switch to a toddler bed is the impending arriv...
