Crib Sheets

1. As with all baby bedding, make sure that the crib sheets you buy are sized appropriately and fitted snugly to the crib mattress .

2. If you find a crib sheet style or color that you really like, you'd be wise to purchase multiples: wash day always seems to come quickly (or daily).

3. Our portable crib sheets offer durable, easily washable materials in reduced sizes that will perfectly fit the smaller mattresses of portable cribs.

4. Bassinet sheets can never be as soft and beautiful as baby, but our 100% cotton high thread count sheets come in a respectfully distant second.

5. For parents of young babies, we recommend having several sets of cradle sheets , as well as a plastic mattress cover for wetness protection and quick changes.

6. Cotton baby bedding isn't just soft and natural: it's also durable. Nylon sheets have a tendency to melt or shrink in the dryer.

7. One indicator of high-quality crib sheets is that the pattern has been sewn into the fabric rather than stamped on. Stamped patterns will peel and fade with washing.

8. Some toddler beds can actually use crib-size bedding, so don't be afraid to invest in high-quality crib sets; they'll still be useful as baby grows.

9. Parents concerned about allergies or the use of bleaches and dyes will love our plush crib sheets made from organic cotton.

10. Woven cotton sheets have a more luxurious feel than knitted cotton sheets because they're made from multiple sets of strands rather than one continuous thread.
