Five gender-neutral themes

Mixing It Up
'We were confused as what to do with the baby room because we didn't know if we were having a boy or a girl. So we decided to paint three walls lavender, one wall blue. On the purple walls our three-year-old put his handprints in blue. On the blue wall he put his purple footprints. It is so cute. Then to add to the colour dysfunction we put in light pink carpet. We added a dresser, which is cream with berry-coloured drawers. We love it so much, and it is fine for a boy or a girl.''

Antique Toys
'For our second child we went with an antique toy theme in hunter green, red and a splash of navy. It was easy to find the teddy bears, rocking horses, jack-in-the-boxes, blocks, etc that we needed to decorate the room. We put up a rocking-horse border and sponge-painted the bottom part of the wall in an antique red. We added antique-looking lace curtains and dressed the bears when we had our little girl. We are now expecting our third baby in November, and the same room will work beautifully because this too is a girl. The only thing I would change if it were a boy would be the curtains.'
