Choosing The Right Baby Crib
Choosing a baby crib is a wonderful moment. You are choosing something that your new child will spend a lot of time in so you want it to be right. You might want to have a simple yet functional one, or you might want to go for a real furnishing statement with your crib.
There are a number of different style cribs available and the one you choose will depend on your budget, your space available and of course your taste. Let's look at the different styles available
Firstly there are bassinet cribs. A bassinet baby crib is sometimes known as a basket or Moses basket crib. They are the style of a carry basket and can be put on a stand. Sometimes they are rocker cribs and the basket can usually be taken off the stand. This is great if you are travelling as they can be put anywhere for your baby to sleep. They do not take a lot of room so a bassinet style crib is an ideal solution if you have a small space.
Secondly there is the standard crib. These are quite large and have either panel or bars on the side. Either one or both sides drop to make getting your baby in and out easier. A lot of people like this style of crib because it gives a lot of space for your baby to grow and you won't have to replace it so soon. Similar to this is the convertible baby crib, where the sides can be removed to make a bed for a small child, so it can last you even longer.
If you want a baby crib to be more decorative, you can look at sleigh type baby cribs. These are similar in style to sleigh beds, with a kind of troika shape to them. They can often be expensive but they look great and can often be personalized by hand painting. You could then have a truly unique item of furniture.
Another kind of baby crib you might like to consider for decorative reasons is an iron baby crib. Iron beds are really popular but iron baby cribs are a little more unusual but can look fantastic. You can also get canopy baby cribs which are like four-posters for babies. These can be with a base of an iron crib or a wooden one.
If you like the romantic decorative look of a canopy baby crib, then have a look at round baby cribs. These can look absolutely adorable and come in a variety of colours and dcor. They are best in a bigger room, as they look better when not up against a wall.
If your tastes are simpler than lots of fabric for your little prince or princess, then you might want to consider a log baby crib. Think of a beautiful log cabin and turn that idea into a baby crib. Then you the get the picture. Log baby cribs look really rustic and can add a lot to the look of your nursery, whilst still being sturdy and practical for your child.
Whatever style of baby crib you get, make sure it is safe your child, and then you won't go far wrong.
