Gender Neutral Baby Nursery Reveal for Our NYC Apartment

/

As we patiently await the arrival of Baby S, who is running fashionably late (just like his or her mama), I thought I’d share some pictures of the little nursery space we have put together for him/her. Since we live in a one bedroom apartment in NYC we had to get creative and work smart with our space. This babe won’t need much in the beginning anyway, so this little one will be rooming bedside us for the first few months.

We chose a gender neutral whimsical theme that went with our pre-existing furniture and space. We’re reusing our dresser for the changing table and will transition it into a baby’s room eventually so I switched out the hardware with gold that matches baby’s crib. Since I’ll be off through summer as a teacher, we actually have our crib upstate for now, so we have it when we visit both of our families.

We had registered with Pottery Barn Kids (PBK) for most of our nursery needs. I like how versatile their pieces were and most of their products take into account baby safety and health. The furniture is Greenguard gold certified and they offer a range of organic cottons for bedding. We picked out this crib for baby and our family gifted us this adorable crib skirt and these metallic star sheets from PBK.

This little babe will be sleeping in the Snoo in the beginning. We had heard some great reviews on this form of bassinet and loved the science behind it, with safety it’s top priority we will be giving that a try. I’ll definitely create a Snoo review blog post later on to review how the it works for us.

I styled this bookcase after being inspired by Kendal Kramer’s for her little’s nursery. It was the perfect gender neutral minimalist blend. If you don’t follow her blog, Styled Snapshots I recommend you do. As another NYC blogger she has a great balance between baby products, recipes, and fashion for mamas out there! I liked the leaning book case design and it fit perfectly right next to our dresser along with a wooden wall hanger for baby’s towels.

Now all we’re missing in this little space is the baby! We cannot wait to find out what he or she will look like! I’ve done some deep cleaning and nesting to prepare so it’s been a waiting game to say the least. We’ve had plenty of time to get set with everything happening in regard to the pandemic so enjoying our last few days just the two of us best we can and getting lots of rest!

Hope you enjoy these little details as much as I did coordinating it all. I’ve linked all of our items in the widgets below. If you have any specific questions please leave me a comment below!
