Young American Crib Choices

Choosing the perfect crib can be a long process, especially when you don't know what is out there or where to begin. It's definitely something you need to research, because face it, whether you have one child or twelve, your little one will spend a lot of time in their crib and you want to make it the best as possible without spending way too much money.

I've broken down the process into three categories for you to find your perfect crib:

style, color, and features.
Style: What kind of style are you looking for in a baby crib? What kind of style would you like in the baby room? If you want to go for a more modern style maybe you want to consider clean, minimal lines. For me, I am more traditional so I love the cribs above and below which fit my style so well. These two cribs are pretty similar, do you like the full wooden back or do you like the slats all around the crib?

Here is a similar crib as well with a higher arched back with wood across the entire back. Do you see the detail in the back? Do you like something more decorative or do you want something more conservative. As you can see in this beautiful Young American crib, there are many more curved lines throughout this design.

Here is something more streamlined that you may prefer. This crib has straighter lines, as you can see, on the back and on the ledges.

Color: Keep looking at the following styles and see what aspects you NEED to have or would LIKE to have. Crib color can change the entire feel of the room. Do you like the basic crib colors (white, browns, black) or would you rather have a colored crib that is blue, green, red, purple, or pink. The options are endless, it's just up to you and how you want to style your cute baby nursery.

Wow, look at this bold-colored crib. The emphasis is on the ends of the bed, instead of the back, because of the higher side panels. You need to think about what kind of bedding you will put with the colored crib and if it will match.

Features: The last thing you need to remember when choosing a perfect crib is its features. Some things to keep in mind are should you have wheels on the crib or is the crib going to be stationary? Lastly, do you want the option to convert the crib into a toddler bed? (Most of these cribs have that option when you purchase a Stationary Toddler kit). These are some good things to decided on so you can make a wise purchase.

Good luck! Make sure to figure out what you like and would think is best for your little one. First, find out what styles you like, then choose a color, and then decide what features are essential to have with this crib you will use for years and years.
