Safe Recycling Ideas for Recalled Cribs

As you may or may not know, drop side cribs have been a topic of conversations regarding the safety of children. Tragically there have been several fatal cases involving the drop side since 2001.  Millions of cribs have been recalled and there will be a federal ban on producing and selling (including resale) drop side cribs starting in June 2011. Read more about this here. Now, if you do have one you have two options: destroy it or find other uses for it. Not sure what I mean? Here are some of my favorite creative uses for crib sides that don't put your baby in danger. Check out these DIY projects:

This one is an easel crafted from crib sides!


A kitchen organizer for all those miscellaneous kitchen items.

This one is awesome! Keep all your crafting supplies on this wall organizer!


This one might take a little more expert craftmanship- but you can get as creative as using the legs on another table top!
