How Can I Cut Down Crib Bedding To Mini Crib Size?

in Babies, Uncategorized

I purchased a “emily” mini crib, and I couldnt find any bedding that I liked that fit a mini crib, I found regular sized bedding on sale and sprung for the purchase and was hoping someone could help me w/ the “how to” cut it down (the sheets and baby bumber not the blankets) to fit the mini sized crib. I have 1 sheet that fits the crib can I use that as a pattern?!? I’m a bit clueless help!!

Well, forget the bumper – they are dangerous and increase the risk of SIDS in newborns.
Can’t you wrap the sheet all the way round the mattress and fasten it securely underneath, possibly tying the corners together? Then when your baby grows into the big crib you can still use it. Seems a shame to cut up a favourite design.

You’ll want to be really careful on the sheet because it needs to fit snug. You can use the sheet that fits as a pattern and then if it’s still a tad bit loose, you can buy sheet smoothers that hold the sheet in place. As for the bumper, I would recommend taking measurements of the crib, and then cutting in the middle of each side, however much you need to cut, and then sowing it back up. The reason I suggest doing it that way is because you’ll want to keep the strings that attach to the crib in tact that way you don’t have to worry about your baby pulling it and them breaking.

When it comes to crib bedding I would probably not try to cut it down to the right size. The sheets need to be very snug fitting… if you can do it great. Just make sure it fits perfectly. (which I would never be able to do.)
