Guest Picks: Chevron for Children
— Andrika from Nursery Notations
Need a bedding set for the big sibling who has to share a room with their new baby brother or sister? This set is neutral and can lean toward a boy or girl with just a splash of color in some sheeting or pillows.
I like this set as an alternative for a boy's room. The touch of red gives the set a nice energetic punch.
If simple gray and white is too boring for you, opt for this set which adds in a subtle touch of yellow. I like this as a gender-neutral alternative.
I like the hint of pink in this chevron crib set. It's so sweet.
This pillow is perfect to throw on a glider, and the touch of light pink makes it into a sweet girl's piece of decor.
Large-scale chevron looks great on a bed. I love the patchwork detail on this pillow.
Owls and chevron are all the rage right now, so why not combine them? Light pink and gray is always a wonderful combination.
Who wouldn't want this as a blanket? Chevron? Check. The 2012 Pantone color of the year, Tangerine Tango? Check! I love this, and it is organic too!
Every room needs and extra spot to sit. Why not a custom pouf in a chevron pattern? It comes in an assortment of colors including gray, yellow and black.
Every child would love a mini couch is the room, right? And why not in chevron? It is the perfect size for two kids.
If you don't have room for the couch version of this, go for the chair. It is sure to make a statement in you child's room. This print is available in an assortment of colors.
I love the idea of having a rocker in a nursery instead of a glider. They're much more chic and less bulky. You can't go wrong with this one by Nurseryworks in chevron.
Even Target is on the chevron bandwagon. I love this chair, especially for the price. Every room needs an extra seat.
I love that this headboard is affordable and so full of style. It's perfect for any teen's room.
This pendant light would look great anywhere in the house. I like the pattern, and the linen texture of the lampshade fabric makes it seem more luxurious than it really is.

Make yourself happy by lining your drawers with a chevron drawer liner like this one. It's chic, unexpected and useful.
Go dramatic with a chevron wallpaper. I'd love to put this on the wall behind a headboard or a crib.
Everyone is always looking for accessories for bookshelves. Why not this chevron vase? Add a bright Gerber daisy, and you have a beautiful, natural, artistic piece for the room.
This is a new great rug from Company C. I'd use this in a boy's room or playroom. I like it because it would hide stains especially well.
Chevron rugs provide just the right amount of pattern to ground out almost any space. Urban Outfitters has created one for a great price in an assortment of colors to work in any decor.
Chevron does not always have to be bold and in your face. This rug creates an understated chevron pattern, and the natural texture brings a warm, earthy element to a space.
Now, if you have a chevron bedroom, why not a pair of pajamas to match? These are adorable and suitable for any baby boy or girl.
If you really love chevron, use it for your baby announcement. It's so simple yet still elegant.Next: Chevron — Is It Here to Stay?
