How old are they? What does the bedding look like? What color does your daughter want?

Yes, ask your daughters...Usually, it will be a great big mish mash of color...but it will be THEIR great big mish mash of color and they will love it!

Pick or have your daughter pick the bedding first. It's much easier to match paint to bedding than the opposite way.

How old is she? Old enough to ask for what she wants?

I agree with cat this is decided by your daughter not you.IMO a childs room is their space and should be decorated that way.

We do our kids rooms white and they can pick whatever bedding they want so we aren’t constantly painting and repainting...

That was always my Moms solution to the problem and my Dad made huge cork boards so we did not constantly need to nail more stuff on the walls. New bedding in the new favorite color is a great way to handle .

Hello my daughters are one and two... the bedding is pink the crib is white. I had a grey nursery downstairs but we are moving both girls upstairs and the two year old has a pink room with white bed and accents my youngest had a grey room which was the original nursery.

What you have sounds good to me. In four years you can change existing to something they like.

Yes, If she wants pink ... if not, get her input. ( lol ) ,

Several thoughts:

Yes to painting it whatever color the child wants. I definitely buy into the school of "this is a small way for the child to express her desires and give her some control over her world".

Painting the room white (or another very neutral color) and accessorizing with bedsheets, etc. in her current favorite color is equally good ... and easier than painting.

When my girls were both very small and I was buying clothes, sippy cups, blankets, whatever, I often gave one pink and one purple. My oldest started asking for the purples, so it kinda became purple-for-her-pink-for-the-baby.

I think my girls were typical: when they were very small, they were pinky-pink-pink girls ... then about the time they hit 1st or 2nd grade, pink was O.U.T. OUT. If you paint pink now, expect to repaint when they hit this next phase.

Incidentally, my oldest never came back to pink; she thinks it doesn't suit her skin tone and greatly prefers "cool colors", whereas my youngest now adores pink again ... mixed with neutrals.

Thank you. I think I will go with classic white and see what she likes later on.

cat_ky SO TRUE! I just painted my oldest daughter's room cream. Not something I would have chosen for her! She loves it (for now) and really its only paint so it can be changed as her preferences do. My youngest I am picking the color because she is 3 and doesn't really have an opinion. I will probably go with pink because that is what I like for her....who knows what she will actually want when she is older.

Mildred Gomez classic white is safe but you could also do a neutral beige/grey/greige they will give a little color to the room without clashing with any bedspreads/art she has over the years

well, except for extreme colors, I agree. When mybdaughter wanted a very deep sea blue at 15, I consented. With the advisory that when she tired if it, she would have to prime and paint.
She did, and she did.

This bedroom we painted a hot pink for a 5 year old girl.
