Boy and Girl Twin Nursery Ideas incl. Black and White Polka Dots, Stripes and Lovely Sage Green Nursery Walls Decorated with Original Artwork

We came up with boy and girl twin nursery ideas to decorate our babies' room based on the possibility that we are having a boy AND a girl.


The decision to go with a black and white color scheme softened with a soft sage green on the walls was made in order to keep things gender neutral.


Boy and Girl Twin Nursery Ideas and Themes




We wanted an attractive nursery for our twins, but to keep our nursery decorating expenses down.

. In order to accomplish this
we had to become very creative.



Painting Baby Dressers


We took a dresser that we had on hand and painted it in black and white stripes and dressed it up with large crystal knobs.


Cribs for Twins



We bought two used baby cribs for the twins and painted one black and one white. These set the tone for the room and inspired us to blend traditional black and white prints and patterns seen in the room's decorations.

I made the crib skirts out of a Zebra print fabric that I found online and a friend made the bumpers out of elegant black and white damask fabric.

The framed art prints that you see in the pictures over the crib were actually part of our twins baby shower decorations. We thought they were so cute that we framed them and incorporated them into our boy and girl twin nursery ideas and decor.

The window valance was purchased through a local company as well as the swivel glider and matching ottoman.

As finishing touches, we added the black and white polka dot rug and white chandelier with crystals to top it off. The black and white table lamps were being used to light the guest room and the side table was also in a spare room. The lamps were perfect as they were, but we had to repaint the little table.


Once we had all the basics of our boy and girl twin nursery theme in place, we changed out the closet doors and replaced them with white louvered doors and added the same large crystal handles that we used on the twins' dresser.

It was so much fun to put together!

From the Webmaster:
I LOVE, LOVE, love your decorating ideas for your twins' nursery. The way you played the patterns off one another rather than to complicate the color scheme is pure genius!

Twins Nursery Theme
by: Anonymous

Your twins nursery theme is too precious! I wondered if you might have the name of the wall color that you used and a resource for the cute prints that you saved from your baby shower?

If you don't know where the hostess bought them, maybe you could see if you can read the name of the artist on the pictures?

The way that you decorated your twins' nursery is absolutely devine and has my vote.

The wall color is by Ralph Lauren, but I can't recall the name. I will try to find it for you though.

As for the pictures they were drawn up by a friend of mine for the shower. We loved them so much that we framed them. She also made the crib bumpers, my husband painted the dresser and cribs and my aunt and I made the crib skirts.

My friend said you could email her about making pictures her email is janicegoodman at skynetbb.com.

Thank you for your nice comments!

Fabulous Twin Boy and Girl Nursery
by: Anonymous

These are the most modern and fabulous twin boy and girl nursery ideas ever!

I just have to ask were the stripes chosen to decorate the baby boy's half of the nursery or was the are with a polka dot design chosen for the little guy? Or should I ask whether the white or black crib is for the baby boy? I was just curious. Kudos for a precious and original nursery design.

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS

SORRY FOR THE DELAY IN RESPONDING. THE STRIPES WERE REALLY CHOSEN FOR FUN. AND I USED THE POLKA DOTS TO ADD MORE DIMENSION AND CHANGE. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE FOR THE BOY WAS HIS CRIB IS BLACK AND THE TIES ON HIS CRIB BUMPER ARE WHITE. WE REALLY FELT THAT THE DIFFERENT PATTERNS WERE NEUTRAL FOR BOTH GENDERS AND THE VARIATION REALLY ENCOURAGES THE BABIES TO LOOK AROUND THE ROOM. IT IS TRUE THEY LIKE BLACK AND WHITE. THANKS FOR ALL THE WONDERFUL COMMENTS.
