Were not finding out...

We have decided not to find out what the sex of our baby will be. But on the contrary I'm having trouble trying to deciding on how to decorate the nursery. I love the idea of not finding out but finding it hard to decorate so...Do you have any ideas or pictures that may help?

I didn't decorate according to gender, I just picked out stuff I liked.  Paddington Bear :) and then some other bear stuff since he's hard to find.  

Green and yellow are considered "gender neutral", though I think blue and pink are fine too.  

You could pick a theme that's not as gender specific, like forest, or bears, or ocean...in neutral colors like tans and greens, yellows...

We never found out with all three of the girls. I did Suzie zoo for the first baby and left it like that since I got pregnant 8 weeks after having my first and they shared a room until we moved 3 weeks later. Then I did one in Dora and the other in care bears.

You could do animals. There are lots of jungle, farm, and rainforest bedding sets. Babies r us has a pretty cool rock star theme.

Okay, I searched "gender neutral nursery", and a lot of them are white, which I could take or leave.  Blue seems to be pretty popular too.  I know that's stereotypically boy, but it doesn't have to be...

Do like a monkey or frog or Barney theme. Something that can go towards both genders!

I did turtles for the first, ocean for the second and the third (not pregnant yet) will be zoo themed. Then again all I did really was put some decals and wooden animals from hobby lobby on the walls. My furniture is all light brown. My mom did make some curtains (blue and kinda looks lime water) and a cover for the rocking chair.
