warm neutrals for children’s rooms

warm neutrals kids rooms
Lately my eye has been drawn to children’s rooms made up of warm neutral tones. Honey, clay and rose. Plaster pinks to peachy oranges. Skin tones, nudes. Dusty reds and warm ochres. Mellow wood features heavily, as well as other natural textures like rattan, wicker and hemp. I love the offset with cooler green-blue-greys. PS: note the on-trend wall hangings in the gorgeous children’s room above. Rainbows are popping up all over Instagram.

  1. I really like the warm tones in these images, there’s something really comforting about them. Also I adore the car rug, my son would love this!
