A ballerina nursery is loveliest soft rather than sugary. Skip bright pink for gentle, muted tones and a graceful birch scene of ballerinas, swans and drifting blossoms — a calm room that grows up beautifully alongside a little dancer. Here's how.
Keep it soft, not sweet
Muted blush, oat, cream and natural wood read graceful and grown-up where bright pink can feel juvenile. Let the theme whisper.
The wall
Anchor the room with a Ballerina wooden wall art set — birch ballerinas, swans and blossoms you arrange above the cot or a little dressing corner. Real birch with a watercolor finish stays soft and lasts, unlike decals. Add a shatterproof mirror for a gentle dressing-corner touch. (See how to decorate a nursery with wooden wall art.)
Grows with the dancer
A soft, muted ballerina room moves easily from nursery to big-kid bedroom. Rearrange or add pieces as she grows.
