white cribs

I am having trouble finding a black crib set that has a dresser/changer with a hutch and is also a convertable crib so, the bedding would also go great with white furniture but do you feel white furniture is ok for a boy? I plan in using this furniture for awhile?

    We're having a boy, and we found a great deal on a white crib at BRU. The room is painted light blue and it looks really nice IMO. All the other furniture in there is white too, and we figure it'll be great next time if we have a girl.

    I got a white set at BRU as well- the Babi Italia Eastside- and we are team green.  I liked it because it isn't too "girly" like some of the details on white sets can be, so it can be for a boy too.  Just change up your bedding.

    The one piece of advice I'll offer is what I was told by a saleswoman that stuck with me... be sure that the white set you select is well-crafted because white is paint, unlike wood-colored sets that are usually stained.  Paint can peel or chip, especially as LO begins to teethe on the railing or throw toys when they're older.  A well-made white set will not, and even if it does, it will not be harmful to baby.

    We went with white for DS and it looks great; we would've gone white regardless of the gender since our house is decorated coastal/pottery barn.  Plus, I loathe oak and cherry/mahogany is too "grown up"  for a nursery.

    FYI - we have black furniture throughout our house and while I love it it shows every speck of dust, cat hair, etc.

    I used a white set with DS (Davinci Emily) and love it.  He did chew on the rail (before I got a chance to put fleece over the railings), but it was nothing a little paint didn't fix.  I find that is is very easy to cover up dings or any scratches with the furniture being white, considering we moved three times since we've had it.

    We went white, wejust received the Catalina crib from PBK...and LOOOVEEEE it.  We live at the beach so it is very beachy in my opinion.  Looks great with the white trim on the walls and white shutters.  Also makes colorful bedding pop!

    I love white furniture for a nursery, regardless of sex. And just FYI Amazon is having a great 40% sale on Davinci nursery furniture!

    If DD had been a boy, we still would have had white furniture.

    We are using white furniture for our baby boy's nursery and I find it to be very gender neutral overall.

    Although we are having a girl, the crib we found (baby cache heritage at BRU) is not girly IMO. I think it would work for a boy too.

    I think you?ll like the Tuscany 4 in 1 crib and changer. It looks elegant, made of birch and it can be converted from a crib to a toddler bed, a day bed and later to a full-sized bed. There?s a detachable dresser/changer which is very convenient. The storage unit has plenty of storage space. We got this from aBaby.com in coffee brown ? but you can get it in white or cherry. I think white baby cribs look lovely ? and it?s fine for a boy!
