As parents are choosing the perfect nursery furniture pieces for their highly anticipated new arrivals, a wide variety of beautiful and functional baby furniture options are available that will add beauty and value to baby's space and make parents proud to show off their little one's new digs. The choice are many and varied. Here are a few we love: For the tiniest babies, moses baskets are a great option to keep little ones close at all times. Usually made of strong basket woven wicker and completely portable, they are perfect for carrying along on day trips or for babies' first days at home when Moms don't want to ever be more than a few feet away. They can be carried to the kitchen when Mom or Dad is preparing dinner, to the bedroom at naptime, or to a home office when parents are checking email or paying bills. Cradles are also great for the smallest babies as they provide closer quarters that traditional baby cribs and help infants feel a bit safer in their surroundings. They can be placed next to a parent's sleeping quarters so that baby is never too far away at naptime or night time. Other baby furniture options may also be appropriate as your little one grows. Co-sleepers are a great idea that many mothers love because they provide the safety of a crib while keeping baby at arms length all through the night and allow some closeness that might otherwise be lost. Classic portable cribs are also often a very handy tool when families go on vacation or baby visits friends or extended family overnight and a regular crib is not a feasible option. Convertible cribs are an option many parents adore as well, because these cribs can be reincarnated from a classic baby bed to a toddler bed to a day bed and then often to a headboard that fits a full sized mattress and boxed springs, making it a truly versatile choice that saves money in the long run and they children grow to know as their own. Round cribs are a fairly modern twist on baby bedding and their circular style offers up some elegance and whimsy in any nursery. Many parents love the opulent and unique look of the rounded crib design. Of course, nothing may be the timeless nature of a classic crib and there are many of these to choose from as well. Traditional options include iron cribs that stand the test of time and look lovely no matter what the style or motif of the nursery they grace, sleigh cribs a new modern tradition that is sweet and elegant and that mothers often choose above all else, espresso cribs that are gorgeous and rich in their colors and add character and depth to the rooms they adorn, white cribs that are among the most versatile for both boys and girls and are always a sweet looking choice, black cribs that have a modern look and feel that add stability and interest to baby's space, and wood cribs, a true classic that will simply never go out of style.
