15 Homegrown Farmhouse Nursery Ideas

Note: While these nursery photos are gorgeous, please know that it’s NOT safe to place stuffed animals, pillows, bumpers, or any loose items inside your infant’s sleep space until Baby is a year old. —Dr. Harvey Karp

Fans of the hit TV show Fixer Upper on HGTV fell in love with the dynamic husband-wife team behind its success, Chip and Joanna Gaines. The Waco, Texas-based couple and parents to five young kids know a thing or two about design; through their carefully crafted, cosy-chic curation of gorgeous spaces, they (inadvertently or intentionally?) created a design movement known ‘round the world as 'Modern Farmhouse.'

The style, heavy on homegrown detail, monochrome palettes with soft earthy accents, exposed wood, and the assembly of gorgeous found objects, has spawned a trend that works in every room of the house. Why should the nursery be any different? If you are planning to create a farmhouse style baby room for your bundle-to-be, consider these beautiful details and full-room inspiration to bring your farmhouse nursery vision to life.

Gaines-Approved Farmhouse Nursery Decor

For a prime example of a farmhouse style nursery, it makes sense to go right to the source. When Chip and Jo Gaines welcomed their fifth child two years ago, the stylish mama let TODAY in on some sneaks of her sweet baby boy room in the farmhouse aesthetic. We love the unique elements like this mid-century rocker made cosy with a chunky blanket and pillow, and the black floating shelves.

It is a staple in any farmhouse room, and whether you go the traditional route attaching actual boards to the walls or create a similar effect with wallpaper, shiplap walls are a perfect touch for the farmhouse nursery.

This is a bit of a different look, bringing in some eclectic pieces like the rug and baskets. But adding an antique dresser in natural wood as shown here makes the overall aesthetic decidedly farmhouse.

Farmhouse Nursery Wood Toys & Built-Ins

A big piece of the heart behind farmhouse style decor is the integration and display of personal family items. On Fixer Upper, you will often see the team repurpose or hang up family heirlooms throughout the space to create a unique touch. In the baby’s room, shelving in the form of floating shelves or generous built-ins is key, as it allows tchotchke a display place. The wooden toys reach back to a foregone era and evoke a sense of calm and excellent style.
