12 Baby Girl Nursery Ideas That Are Not Pink

Pink is great, but it’s not right for every girl’s room. These ideas will inspire you to create a beautiful nursery with a color palette that isn’t all pink.

Natural Wood

Natural wood furniture and nursery decor are a timeless alternative to a traditional pink nursery. This design can adapt to your little girl’s changing style as she gets older and high-quality, wooden furniture can stay in your family for years.

Basic Beige

Try a neutral color scheme for your baby girl’s nursery. Beige and brown are an elegant combination that creates a warm and cozy atmosphere. This is also a great option for a gender-neutral nursery that doesn’t require a total design overhaul every time a new sibling is born.

Nature-inspired Accent Wall

You can’t go wrong with a nature-inspired room for your little one. Dedicate most of your nursery design to an accent wall with a painted mural, scenery wallpaper, or themed wall decals. Leaves, trees, or flowers will bring a calm ambiance into your baby girl’s room.

Pops of Color with Practical Decor

Piggyback on the idea of a neutral color palette and display colorful, everyday items in your beige nursery. Use children’s books or throw pillows to add pops of color to the nursery bookshelf and glider. These props serve as nursery decor and have a functional purpose.

Simple Scandi

The clean, minimalist design of the Scandinavian style has become increasingly popular. Furniture in white or natural wood tones, limited decor pieces, and a subtle pattern in a neutral color palette will provide the fresh and bright atmosphere that the Scandi theme brings.

Wall Art with Animals

An animal-inspired nursery works well for baby girls’ and baby boys’ nurseries. You could design a gallery wall of framed animal paintings or choose a few prints of animals from a woodland area, African safari, or the deep sea—animal decor pairs well with earthy colors like sage green, goldenrod yellow, and navy blue.

All White Nursery

When you select a shade of white as the predominant color in your little girl’s room, you have tons of options for nursery furniture and accessories. You could keep with the neutral theme and choose a white glider or rocking chair, or pick a baby crib that stands out in a statement color like navy or sage.

Custom Nursery Decor with Your Baby’s Name

Add a personal touch to your little girl’s nursery with her name as the focal point in the room. You can use stencils, wall decals, or a personalized plaque to paint, spell, or display your sweet baby’s name. Consider laying it on top of a decidedly feminine wallpaper for a pink-free yet girly vibe.

Baby Girl Boho

A retro color scheme and rattan accent pieces create a charming boho style in your little girl’s room. Look for eclectic decor and nursery furniture with bold patterns and deep earth tones that warm the room.

Muted Colors

A soft shade of any color can give a feminine touch to a baby girl’s room. Building the nursery around muted or pastel colors brings more personality than plain white walls, and still allows for wall decor without overwhelming the space.

Spectacular Lighting

For a glamvibe in your baby girl’s room, consider a stunning lighting fixture as the focal point of the nursery. A sparkly chandelier centered on the ceiling or globe wall sconces framing the crib put a spectacular spin on nursery lighting.

Floral Textiles

Blankets and throw pillows with flower designs can single-handedly complete a baby girl nursery theme. Floral textiles come in many colors and styles, from realistic red roses to elementary outlines of white daisies. You may even want to add a small splash of pale pink to complement this floral bedroom idea.

What Colors Should I Use for My Baby Girl’s Room besides Pink?

Maybe you want to keep your nursery room gender-neutral. Maybe you want an alternative to overused traditional styles. Or maybe you just don’t like the color pink.


No matter the reason for choosing a non-pink theme for your baby girl’s room, you can use these colors for nursery inspiration.

Khaki and Cream

Any neutral shade in the beige family will ensure a clean and peaceful nursery atmosphere. This color palette is perfect for a baby girl or boy nursery to accommodate your growing family’s needs.

Lilac and Lavender

Two softer takes on the color purple, lavender is a light pastel and lilac is a more natural shade. Both create a serene and whimsical atmosphere in your little one’s nursery.

Sage Green

This muted shade of earthy green brings the soothing effect of nature into the nursery. Sage green couples nicely with wood tones and animal themes.

Mint Green

Along the same spectrum as sage, mint is a brighter version of soft green. Mint green is a great accent color against dark gray or coral.

Mustard Yellow

Yellow, in any form, is a cheerful color. The depth of mustard yellow can help create a vintage vibe in your nursery design.

Peach and Apricot

These two colors are just the right amount of neutral and feminine. Taking on the natural hues of fruit as their names suggest, peach and apricot will add a light touch of sweetness to your baby girl’s nursery.

How to Create a Safe Baby Girl Nursery

You want your nursery to look beautiful, but more importantly, you want it to be safe for your little girl. Here are a few things to consider when buying baby items for the nursery.

Invest in a High-quality Crib

Although some days it won’t seem like it, your baby will spend much of their first year sleeping. A standard-size baby crib made of premium materials is essential to keeping your little one safe through every nap and bedtimeand giving you peace of mind.


Nurture& offers sustainably sourced, wooden cribs that are rigorously tested and built to last. Investing in a convertible crib is investing in a bed that will safely and comfortably hold your baby throughout infancy and into her toddler years.


Don’t forget to include a snug-fitting crib mattress to prevent gaps between the sleep space and crib rails and give your baby proper support as they sleep.

Design with Storage in Mind

Avoid tripping around a cluttered nursery by planning for nursery storage solutions. A large dresser with plenty of deep drawers and an ottoman with hidden storage will help you keep the room tidy and prevent your baby girl from getting ahold of anything she shouldn’t touch.

Choose Non-toxic Baby Products

From wall paint to nursery furniture, everything your little one comes into contact with should be non-toxic. Nurture&’s entire collection of furniture and accessories are made from non-toxic materials that are safe for your whole family .

Find Functional and Comfortable Seating

Steer Clear of Sharp Edges

Furniture and nursery decor with rounded edges will establish a safe environment where your little one can grow and learn. As your baby girl starts to crawl and explore her surroundings, you’ll be happy you excluded objects with pointy corners.

Anchor Heavy Furniture

Use wall anchors to secure large furniture like a dresser or changing table . Wall anchors can help prevent tipping accidents as your little girl learns to pull up and climb.
