Why choose a rainbow nursery theme?
There are a lot of different rainbow decorations available, with some being more vibrant and others neutral. Rainbows can fit in with a lot of home decor styles too. However, if you're expecting your rainbow baby you might want to celebrate them with a fitting nursery theme.
Do I need to finish the nursery before baby arrives?
A lot of parents choose to have the nursery finished before baby arrives so that they can just enjoy the baby bubble, rather than having to finish decorating. Some parents enjoy having it completed so they can sit in there when baby arrives and so they have a place for all the baby items.
As your baby will be in the same room as you for the first six months, it doesn't matter if you don't get it finished before then.
