Earthborn’s eco-friendly range of paints makes choosing a nursery colour scheme dhild’s play

Decorating a nursery or child’s bedroom and creating a warm, inviting space is a joyous thing, but when it comes to choosing paint, it’s not just the colour that needs careful consideration. Conscious of this, family-owned brand Earthborn has developed an eco-friendly alternative to conventional paint, with no hidden nasties, recyclable packaging and an inspiring palette of 84 colours. And opting for a low VOC paint that’s fume free means that you’ll be protecting both your child and the planet that they will one day inherit, without compromising on beautiful colour.

When it comes to picking a suitable shade, Earthborn suggests opting for a scheme that creates a calming, positive environment. It says neutrals are a great starting point as they’re relaxing and easy to live with. Warm neutral hues such as Hopscotch and Mittens are softer alternatives to white, which can appear cold and harsh in some lights. While adding splashes of colour to the mix will add personality and individuality – shades such as its creamy pink Ballet Shoe or the powder blue Bo Peep are ideal for this.

What’s more, with little ones around, Earthborn has developed its Lifestyle range to keep your walls looking as fresh as the day that they were painted, so marks, scuffs and sticky fingerprints are a thing of the past. Great for kids’ bedrooms and high-traffic areas, this hard-wearing emulsion paint will help to create your dream home and a space to be proud of in more ways than one.

For more information on Earthborn paints, visit earthbornpaints.co.uk or follow on Instagram: @earthbornpaints. Readers of The Simple Things can enjoy 5% off online by using the code SIMPLETHINGS5 at checkout. Valid until 31 December 2022.

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
