Baby Lamb Theme Nursery Décor Ideas

Baby Girl Lamb Nursery Theme

A little lamb themed room works well with many color schemes including pink for a baby girl, blue for a boy as well as a green gender neutral color.


A crib quilt with an appliqued sheep is an easy craft project and can be used as bedding or as a wall hanging.

Lamb Baby Bedding

The cornerstone of any lamb nursery is the lamb baby bedding. Lambs are a popular motif for baby quilts, blankets and comforters possibly because of the practice that insomniacs have of counting sheep until they finally drift off to sleep.

Rugs with pictures woven into the design or that are in the shape of sheep are an excellent way to create a cohesive lamb theme nursery.
