Recently I’ve noticed more and more grey bedrooms for kids and I’m loving it. I’ve always been a fan of grey for both kids and baby rooms and when combined with lots of white and a pop of colour, it can look quite stunning for boy or girl or even unisex shared rooms. It’s a colour scheme you won’t tire of and you can always add in more of any colour to brighten or change the room if you want to. For Anya’s new room I had decided to go black and white with hints of pink but now after coming across so many beautiful grey kids rooms, I’m torn. These rooms have really inspired me and so I thought I would share a few favourites as they may just inspire you too:
This is one of the prettiest grey bedrooms I’ve come across recently. There are lots of different shades of grey in this room but using so much grey just makes the other colours and decorations really stand out. The little hints of pink, the white and the pastel touches all come to life against this sea of grey.
From a girly grey room to a more boyish grey room – grey works so well for both sexes and any age. Here the shades of grey used are much darker and are complimented with even more grey decorations. Paired with lots of white this room is very cool for a boy and makes such a nice change from blue!
This mostly white shared kids room uses grey in moderation. I like the soft, fresh vibe of this room and I love how you could practically add any colour in to this room to add a pop of brightness if you wanted. This is a unisex room that kids won’t outgrow quickly and will be very easy to update in years to come. Simple and sweet.
Grey works just as well in large doses as in small doses like this quirky girls room shows. There’s no hiding from the grey here with completely grey walls and floors. Some may find this a bit dark but I think its an enchanting and imaginative room. And the bright pink as well as the unexpected touch of turquoise balance the grey really well.
If I ever have to do up a nursery or advise anyone in future, grey would be my first choice. If you don’t know what you’re having, there is no better choice than gorgeous grey and you can always add colour accents once the baby arrives. Grey is a calming colour even when using lots of it as this grey baby nursery shows.
Most of the rooms above have used lots of grey with a hint of other colours but this room shows that you can easily add as much colour as you want in to a grey room. This girls room has all grey walls and some grey decor mixed with the brightest accessories and it looks so fun. Grey doesn’t mean no colour – it just means as much or as little as you want and any colour you want. Here we’ve got bright pink, yellow, turquoise and more and it all comes together so well.
If you ever thought grey was boring, I hope you’ve changed your mind. It’s a timeless, ageless shade that can be combined with as much or as little colour as you like. There are so many shades of grey to play with and so many ways to use grey in a kids rooms – from hints of grey to lots of grey. Now back to my dilema – go with grey for Anya’s new room or to stick to the original plan of black and white. What would you do?
