Get started with these football nursery decorating ideas.

For a stylish take on the football theme, we love an old-school slant on the classic sport. The industrial vintage feel is hot right now and would look fantastic in a nursery that could easily transition from toddler to teenager as he grows.

Industrial metal furniture can serve as a changing table while Baby is young and can hold toys for when he gets older. A muted color palette of gray and blue gives the space a sophisticated spin (because let’s be honest, the nursery is really for Mom anyway). Every future sports fan needs his own chair to kick his feet up and watch the game with Pop, so don’t forget this touch.

Our picks:

If you’d like to make a bold decorating statement in the room, start with a large wall mural of a vibrant game. The bright colors will stimulate Baby and give him something to look at while he’s hanging out in his crib.

Personalized wall art and a growth chart are fun ways to document his milestones, while colorful locker-style baskets can help keep toys stored now and stash sports gear later. A shaggy football-shaped rug is perfect for tummy time and practicing his crawl.
