When the old rules dictated that a nursery be decorated according to the child's gender, there were very few options for bedding in a little girl's room. Decorators used to be confined to a range of pink and white combinations, although there were the occasional adventurers into new color choices, including yellow and green.

Thanks to modern thinking the parents of baby girls are not locked into decorating their nurseries with only frilly things. Blue baby bedding is only one of the broad array of choices available to purchasers awaiting the arrival of a newborn daughter, and future moms and dads who want to use lots of blue for their baby's room will find there's a wide assortment of designs to select among.
