We weren't planning on painting the nursery (it's a neutral buttery yellow color), but there was a plaster incident and now one wall will have to get painted. We don't have any of the yellow color left.
H was hoping to not need to paint the whole room, which I'm fine with.
So my question is:
What gender neutral color would you paint one wall in an already yellowish room (I'll see if I can find a pic)?
It's going to be the wall the crib goes on if that makes any difference. We're probably going with dark cherry colored wood. I was thinking maybe a burnt orange? I really would like a gender neutral color even though we are finding out the sex.

No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
Re: BR: Nursery colors
This is a craptastic pic and the room is a mess, but this is the wall color
I think it's Behr Sandstone or something like that.

My go-to is the valspar.com virtual painter. It's fun! You can find a paint similar in color to the yellow, and then see what other colors go well with it....
However, my PERSONAL vote would be burnt orange. Our upstairs room is yellow, beige and orange. The orange is more pumpkin-y than burnt, but I like it:
You could always use that wall as an accent wall (they have a lot of inspiration on the Baby Room Bio blog, if you haven't been there yet, beware, it's amazingly addicting staring at so many different nurserys). Maybe thick green and yellow stripes with white between them? Some of those accent walls are crazy, they have damask or diamonds, but you can go as creative as you want!
Also, we're gonna need to see some pics when you end up doing it.
Well there goes my suggestion. ;p
Actually, I like Memily's thought... use it as an accent wall, with like the matching yellow, green, blue, orange stipes? Then it kinda can go with anything?
