An Idea-Packed Nursery

Charm, function, and staying power -- what more can you ask of a nursery? This colorful room has the whole package, with plenty of ideas you can apply to your baby's special space.

Color Connection

There's no fear of "here today, gone tomorrow" in this room, thanks in part to the homeowner's color bravado. Sure, it's blue and pink. But instead of baby-boy blue, it's turquoise. And rather than little-girl pink, there's bold magenta -- used sparingly but with impact. Sans the stereotypical pastels, the room will easily transition to a cheerful room for an older child.
