8 amazing girl nursery decor ideas beyond pink
A nursery with moon and stars decorations.

Choosing a nursery theme is tough in part because we don't know who our infant will grow up to be. Will they like science, sports, or singing, or all of the above? There's no way to know yet, so it's best to choose nursery decor that you find calming to help with sleep or a theme that means a lot to you because you've always wanted to pass it down. This is your chance to get what you want in there before they choose everything themselves once they have their own opinions.
Since we only know the gender of a baby when they're born, you might be looking to steer away from the "princess pink" room for your baby.
So, what are some nursery ideas for girls that aren't focused on everything pink? Read on for eight themes with beautiful nursery decoration ideas.

Night sky
Bring the moon and stars into the nursery with decals, a mural, or glow-in-the-dark ceiling stickers. There's also the option to get decor that says sweet phrases like "I love you to the moon and back." This is a perfect nursery theme because it focuses on sleep, which is the primary thing you'll be trying to get your baby to do in this room. You'll have no shortage of decor options with this classic nursery theme for your daughter.
Woodland
A calming forest (maybe even an enchanted forest?) filled with cute woodland animals makes for a relaxing and adorable theme. Frame prints of watercolors of forest animals, get a leaf print on the crib sheet, and add in cuddly stuffed foxes or teddy bears. This option still can give a nod to the princess motif without the pink, since Rapunzel, Snow White, Aurora, and others are associated with living in the woods.
Strong women
If you're excited to be having a girl but don't want to go the stereotypical pink route, consider leaning into the "girly" idea but focus on strong women instead of fairy-tale princesses. You could put up posters of inspirational women of history. Put up Eleanor Roosevelt quotes, drawings of female knights, and affirming words like "strong" and "brave" around the room.
Underwater
Mermaids, starfish, narwhals, and dolphins will bring a cheery and whimsical feel to your nursery, and there are many decor options from murals and decals to curtains and mobiles. Friendly ocean animals bring a multicolor theme into the room without the focus on gender. This theme gives you space to be colorful and playful.
Coastal
Who wouldn't want a relaxing beach escape every time they go in for a midnight feeding session with their newborn? Think decor that shows seashells, birds, lighthouses, anchors, sky, and sand to bring a coastal feel into the room. You could go New England beach or tropical location with this one.

5 nursery hampers under $30 that’ll make your life easier
Mom with young daughter doing laundry

While you might think your new baby will hardly use any laundry at all, think again. Between spit-up, diaper explosions, spills, and just general wear, infants can go through a lot of clothes. A baby laundry basket will give you a convenient spot to toss those soiled items for later washing, without mixing (or losing -- let’s face it, baby socks are small) them among your family’s general laundry.

But you don’t want to choose just any nursery hamper. After all, you want something functional as well as stylish. Here are five nursery hampers under $30 that’ll make your life easier and look great in any room in your home.
MCleanPin Laundry Hamper: Simple, sweet, and functional
If you have a rather minimalistic nursery (think more color and pattern-focused than cartoon characters and animal friends), then you may want a nursery hamper that’s a little more basic. This simple and sweet hamper is a good pick for those who prefer functionality over fashion.
