Does white furniture seem too girly for a baby boy?

~*Bella*~ asked:

I’m having a hard time finding furniture for my son (without spending $1000+) I found the perfect crib and the perfect dresser/changing table combo, but they are two different color wood finishes and they don’t come in other colors. However, white furniture seems to match perfectly with any other white furniture.

I plan to do a monkey/jungle theme that has light greens, blues and browns..with sage green walls.

Would white furniture be too girly for his room or should I just shop around for wood color furniture?

    White would be perfect – With the colours you have chosen white would work excellent. It would keep the room light and airy and give the room a fresh look.

    Great choice!

    No it would not be too girly, especially once you incoporate the fabric and accessories to go with your theme, sounds like it going to look amazing!

    I think it would be fine for a baby boy, but do you plan on different furniture when he gets older. I spent a lot on my baby’s furniture, and kept in mind that I would want to use it for a while. I personally like the white for girls, and a wood finish for boys. The lighter finishes like an oak is cute for baby boys and carries over into childhood nicely!!

    No white furniture is not girly at all!!!
    I have had the white furniture for both of my boys and I love it!!!
    My room is not as exciting as your room is going to be

    but you can see that it is a very nuetral colour.

    Best of luck

    I like both, I don’t think white would be too girly but I do think a light wood would look better with the theme, since there are earthen tones in the jungle, both on the trees and the animals! :) Plus, white will get scuff marks so much faster and be a tad bit more difficult to keep looking clean.

    White would be fine!

    I really like the first set. :)

    White is fine for a boy. It’l look great with your colours, and when he’s older, it would look great with a navy blue or bright red colour scheme too.
