Nursery furniture help...
So DD will have to share a room with the baby. We had bought dd a bedroom set that converts to the full size bed. So now when the baby comes we decided that instead of spending $200 or so on a crib for the baby we would just covert DD's toddler bed now back to the crib for the baby and buy DD a little toddler bed. Her furniture now is espresso colored, would you get the toddler bed in the same color? Or do White? I know its going to be hard to get an exact match to this espresso color. I've seen some companies say its espresso but looks more like a dark honey oak color. What would you do?
Re: Nursery furniture help...
honestly, I'd buy a twin or full sized bed, otherwise, you're going to have to buy another crib mattress too and she'll probably outgrow the toddler bed quickly.
IF you wanted to just convert the crib into a full sized bed and move the mattress to a new crib, totsy has a childcraft standard crib in espresso for $114
would a twin size bed fit though? or is another toddler bed your only option? You can get just a twin frame and mattress set for the same or maybe a little more than it'll cost for a new toddler bed & mattress.
IDK. I just keep picturing J in a toddler bed and can't see how she'd last to long in it.
If you've got to get another toddler bed, I'd go with something that matched
Knowing that we were going to have another baby, we bought Peter a captain's bed (is that what it's called?) in the same color as the crib. He and Charlie have to share a room, so they look matching, and Peter's has drawers underneath. Perfect!

But if I was going to get a toddler bed, I don't think it needs to be exactly the same color. I believe in mixing and matching!
