Oh Hello Mommyhood: His and Hers

Kelly Zajfen, of Oh Hello Mommyhood, specifically chose this gender-neutral nursery décor so it would transition with her twins (George and Lily) as they grew older. Each bassinet has special touches to make it distinctly male and female. Don't forget to remove everything out of the cribs before you put your babies in them.

A simple white bookcase in Zajfen's nursery is a great place for the brilliant spines of baby books. She used blocks to spell out a personalized sign at the top.

This corner is filled with natural light, and the flowers add a colorful touch. The storage space next to the rocking chair allows her to stash personal things, since she'll be spending a lot of time in the room!

Britt, of Gus and Lula, named her blog after her adopted twins (a boy and a girl) from Ethiopia. She decided on a yellow-and-green color scheme when designing her nursery. Even the chandelier is green, transformed by some craft paint.

Magda Eddleman, of Life Through My Camera Lens, didn't want to stick to a single theme for her twins' (Lucy's and Reid's) nursery, so she created a cheerful room that works well for both genders. Yellow curtains and striped fabric-covered letter initials keep the room happy.
