I’m buying a mini crib for my daughter and I want to make crib bedding myself. I need the measurements of fabrics I’ll need to make a bumper, ruffle/skirt and quilt/blanket. Anyone wanna help out? To be exact, I’ll be getting the Da Vinci Mini Crib from Babies R Us…. Thanks!!!

I’m on a tight budget, and a friend of mine told me they we’re giving me a crib. Turns out, its a cradle. Its beatiful and I’d love to use it, even though I know I’ll have to buy a crib eventually. But can I use the cradle in PLACE of a crib until the baby is actually big enough to need a crib? Would this be safe all the time? It also rocks, but I thought if we didn’t want it to rock I could wedge something under it to keep it solid. Just wondering if its worth it to buy the bedding for a cradle (which is MUCH cheaper than crib bedding) or if I’m wasting my money and should just go ahead and spend it on a crib?

I just want a quilt. I had gotten a whole crib bedding set as a gift when I was pregnant with my daughter. We don’t use the bumper pads, so getting it as a set is a complete waste of money (and space, because you have to still keep the bumper pads…what a shame to just throw them out!)

Even though I didn’t use the quilt on her bed, it still got a lot of use (it was nice to lay her on it when she was really little, and even when she was just crawling. It’s just nice to have something soft between the baby and the floor). Now that my daughter is older, I’m going to have an extra piece of fabric put around the boarder of the quilt to make it larger so she can keep using it into childhood.

I want my next baby to have his own now, especially since our daughter’s will be kept with her as she grows. Any place I can get one, just the quilt? (Keeping in mind, I’m not crafty so I can’t just whip one up, and my mother’s sewing skills are limited to that of adding the piece of fabric to my daughter’s already existing quilt…

Where can I find mini-crib bedding?




I had no idea there was such a thing as a portable crib so, imagine my surprise when I realized my daughter’s crib was just that! It’s a really pretty crib, though, so I don’t want to return it. So now I’ve got a problem… Where can I find portable crib bedding? I’ve checked BabiesRUs, WalMart, and Target, but I don’t like any of the bedding there and it’s mostly just playard sheets…

I have looked online etc… and the main one I have found is this satin set. I had a satin comforter set as an adult and I did not like it because I slid so much. Her bed is a convertible crib so I could get a crib bedding set, but I have yet to find a brightly colored one. Any help or ideas would be appreciated!

We’re having a girl!! But I’d like to find some crib bedding that has a small amount of light blue in it, as well as pinks or purples of course. Something with dragonflies, turtles, frogs, snails or ladybugs…..anything like that. I have been to tons of .com’s and have looked around so if you could post a specific URL link to a picture of what I am looking for as opposed to "try babies r us" that would be much appreciated!

for some reason i’m at a complete loss this pregnancy. everything is different with this pregnancy than it was with my first. i am definitely not prepared for anything, i don’t even feel like i have the motivation to get prepared!!! i have lots of clothes (onesies, sleepers, etc) left over from my first son that are in excellent shape, and we have bought a few clothes– but i don’t even feel like buying many clothes because i feel like with the clothes we have the new baby will have plenty to wear. we went and bought a package of pampers, but i didn’t want to buy many because the dr thought this might be a right large baby, and i don’t want to spend my time returning/exchanging diapers. we have a few packages of wipes, receiving blankets, spit up rags, etc. we did buy one package (3) avent bottles 4oz (i know we need more bottles) and bottle brushes.

i decided not to have a baby shower this time, because i’m not close with any of my friends any more and i feel bad having a party just to get gifts (yes i’m very weird). i also had many things left over from my first son that we could use (clothes, baby bed, crib bedding, etc).

so what else should i get before the baby gets here (outside of more bottles)?

Here is my dilemma. I’m due to have my baby any day now and I had placed an order with a particular company that dealt with beach theme for the crib bedding awhile back. To make a long story short I never received my order and they never got back to me in a timely manner like they said they would. In my opinion they are very unprofessional and it is a shame because they have cute stuff. Anyway, I know now if I order the bedding it will probably be here after the baby is born but can someone give me an idea where to go and who is very professional? Also, I don’t want to spend 3-4 hundred dollars on crib bedding.
