Gold adds glamour to a sweet nursery
If your design aesthetic leans toward the ornate, gold is the metallic to add luxurious touches to your nursery. Warm colors work best with gold, and a nursery awash in gold and pink easily becomes a nursery for your little princess. The Project Nursery Pink and Gold Gorgeousness Nursery is a glamorous room featuring gold and pink wallpaper. If you aren’t sure about the commitment of wallpaper in your nursery, look to gold accessories to add a luxe touch to your decor.

Invest in metallic nursery accessories
Metallic nursery accessories can be splurge pieces for your baby’s room because of their decorating versatility. Silver and gold are classic accent colors, and the pieces you invest in for your nursery can be repurposed in your child’s room as he or she grows older. Some of the pieces are so gorgeous, you might find that you’re tempted to repurpose them in other rooms in your home!
