Choose an Eco-friendly Coat of Paint

Freshening up your nursery with a new paint color? Pick one from Lullaby Paints. You can shop online (great for those end-of-pregnancy nesting days when you don't want to leave the house) including ordering free paint sample cards. But most importantly, the paints are some of the safest available, made with out toxic chemicals that will emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into your baby's environment. Find colors ranging from pastel blues, pinks and yellows to bold reds and easy neutrals.
