From cherry cribs to painted varieties, there is a wide selection for you to choose from when putting together your baby's bedroom. You do not have to spend a lot to get something that look unique. If you are willing to put in a little time, you can purchase an inexpensive crib and add accents to it to create something completely different. Whether you love cherry cribs or prefer oak and mahogany, you can choose an attractive look or create your own!
Wood Grain Baby Cribs
Oak Convertible Crib
Wood baby furniture has a very classic look that many parents love. If you prefer, purchase cherry cribs or other wood grain variety that is convertible. Although you will pay a little more, you will also get more use out of the crib. Convertible cribs can be slid apart and include an extension that turns it into a regular child's bed. This is an ideal choice, especially when you have purchased matching furniture to go with your baby's oak, mahogany or cherry cribs.
Painted Baby Cribs
Painted baby cribs are another good choice for a unique bed for your infant. These cribs are most often found in solid white but can also have playful accents and flourishes painted on. If you are having trouble locating a crib that is attractive and suits your baby's room, consider altering one. This is often a less expensive alternative to finding a special made crib. No matter which type of wood you choose, from cherry cribs to oak, a few painted accents can make a huge difference.
Tips for Adding Accents to your Baby's Crib
Even if you are not the best painter, you can easily add attractive embellishments to your child's crib. For example, if you choose cherry cribs, find paint colors that compliment that hue. The paint color should be bright enough to be seen, but not so bright it looks out of place. Also keep in mind some paints look slightly different dry than they do wet, so consider a test painting. If you can, find a wood sample in the same color and use it for practice painting. This is also highly recommended before beginning any work on the actual crib.
If you have trouble painting in the lines, then consider using stencils. Keep it easy by using a very simple shape that includes little to now tiny sections. You can take it one step farther and create your own stencils using oak tag or another heavy paper. Always test your stencil out first to make sure the shape looks as you want it to. Take your time and allow time for drying between each paint session.
Whether you buy cherry cribs, oak cribs or painted cribs, you can find an attractive model that will compliment your personal tastes. If you want something personalized, try adding your child's name to the headboard or a small accent along the rails. With a little practice and patience, even an amateur painter can create a beautiful crib!
