Theme Ideas for a Green Nursery

Gardens, Frogs, Clovers and More

Crystal Ray
A baby's nursery is fun to decorate, even when the sex of the baby is unknown. Many expectant parents choose green when they want a unisex color that is ideal for a boy or a girl, but even those that know the gender of their child often choose green and a corresponding theme. Consider the following theme ideas for a green nursery, and make it a fun and comfortable place for your baby.

Fun Frogs and Lily Pad Theme for a Nursery

When trying to come up with a decorating theme for a green nursery, consider choosing fun frogs and lily pads. If frog and lily pad baby bedding cannot be found, select various shades of jade, and decorate further with plush frogs and peel and stick appliqués for a wall. Choose light sea foam, pink, and yellow sheers, and tie them back with faux lily pads attached to ribbon.

A Tranquil Garden Theme

A garden theme is beautiful in a nursery, and it is fun and easy to decorate. Consider buying peel and stick flower and foliage appliqués for the walls, or try your hand at stenciling. In addition, mount a section of smooth vinyl picket fencing in a corner of the nursery, or mount enough panels to go around the entire room. Place some of the flowers on the fencing to make them appear to grow between the slats.

A Green Clover and Floral Meadow Nursery Theme

Green clovers do not have to include rainbows and sneaky looking leprechauns in green suits. They are ideal when displayed in a beautiful floral meadow. Think about a green clover and floral meadow theme when decorating a baby`s room. It can also include a large painted mural of a weeping willow tree and a tranquil pond. The bedding can be floral or solid in color and coordinate well with the theme. Best of all it is a style and design that can grow with the child.

Decorate a Nursery in a Green Patchwork Quilt Theme

Quilts are comforting, and when decorating a nursery in green, consider choosing a patchwork quilt theme. It can also include cuddly cats or puppies. This is a really cute theme, and this nursery bedding theme is really very easy to find. Decorate the nursery with plush cats or puppies and lots of patchwork designs.

These are just a few of the many theme ideas that can be used when decorating a green nursery. Shop online for nursery bedding, and take a look at the many green options. This will spark many more ideas for decorating a nursery with a fun and stylish green theme.
