Interested in creating a nursery that's warm and welcoming? We are showing you how to add warm tones to a nursery.
If you are familiar with the color wheel, you'll know that there's the warm colors and cool colors. In a perfect scenario, there's the perfect mix of cool and warm tones, lending a sense of balance, dimension and depth to the space. If your nursery design leans more towards one tone, the design will inevitably come across as flat.
When the nursery design leans more cool than warm, you'll need to add some warm tones to the nursery to balance the cool tones and vice versa.

Here we share our favorite ways to add warm tones to a nursery and give it a cozy comfortable vibe.
1. GO WITH WARM PAINT COLORS
Whether it's an accent wall or all of the walls, painting is the easiest way to transform the nursery overnight. Granted, finding the perfect nursery color isn't an easy task, but with the right paint color, you can make the space warm and inviting.

Warm tone nursery paint colors will have yellow and red undertones, hence when choosing nursery paint colors look for creams, greiges, beiges, browns, pinks, earth tones and the like
2. CHOOSE WALLPAPER WITH WARM TONES
Wallpaper is one of our favorite and easiest ways add personality to the nursery with patterns, colors and textures. Choose nursery wallpaper with rich hues to bring warmth and depth to the space.

3.INVEST IN WARM FURNITURE
Earthy organic elements add both texture and warmth, so consider bringing in pieces that are made from wood, leather and other natural materials.

4. ADD WARM TEXTURES
Add more warmth to the baby's room with a few quick changes and bring in new textures that will make a big impact. Wool, velvet, knits, sheepskin, linens and woven materials are some of our favorite ways to infuse the nursery with warmth.

A few select nursery décor items such as nursery art or accessories can be brought in to the nursery to add warmth.
