Do-it-yourself round baby crib

Most likely if you want to do do-it-yourself round crib for a baby, then primarily because you like its appearance. Round cribs are certainly unique and can be designed in different styles, from modern to classic look, complete with posters and awnings. But I must admit that this is not the most practical choice for a children's room. Round crib requires round accessories. You should find a round mattress, bedding and more. These materials are usually more expensive than standard bedding and cribs. However, if these difficulties do not stop you, here is an example, how to make a beautiful round crib for a baby do it yourself.

Do-it-yourself round crib 100 photos

Round cribs are certainly unique. Their main advantage, attractive style and look just great. But if you decide to opt for a round crib, different points to consider, can be considered their shortcomings.

• First of all, additional costs, you will have to buy non-standard accessories, difficulties may arise here.
  
• Secondly, round cribs will occupy more space in the nursery. If you have a nice large room, then perhaps this does not concern you. But for a standard bedroom this is a very uncomfortable piece of furniture.
  
• And thirdlyYou may have difficulty reselling. If your crib is a family heirloom (bearing in mind that the use of an antique crib is not recommended), then the cost of reselling the crib will not matter. But, if you want to ultimately want to resell it, it will not be so easy to do. Most cots don’t like round cribs. Many prefer a practical classic option.

Bumper for a crib withwith your hands

Here you will find out how to make a wicker bumper for a cribThis is a cute and trendy decor for a kids room. You can make it monochrome or use any color you like.

4. Continue until you fill the entire tube of fabric. Make sure it is evenly filled.
5. Leave a few centimeters at the end, then secure with a pin.
6. Insert a roll of paper on the other side and fill in the rest.

8. After that, take a needle with a thread, hide and fix the ends of the tubes on the back of the braid.

The finished bumper has a length of 2.75 m, but this is a little because it is soft and fluffy! Now you have a unique and individual decor for the children's room.
