Soft Shades of Blue

Soft shades of blue are a classic choice for a calming and serene environment. Blue hues are known to lower blood pressure and slow down breathing, making it an ideal color choice for nurseries. Light shades of blue, such as powder blue, will create a calm and relaxing atmosphere for your baby.

Stay Away From Bold or Bright Colors
