I just ordered fabric from fabric.com for the skirt and some curtains! They also have a curtain DIY tutorial :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-on-the-ikea-gulliver-crib#post-558158 Sat, 09 Feb 2013 17:18:43 +0000 mlm2934 558158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@maybebaby: so glad for that link, great idea for DIY! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-on-the-ikea-gulliver-crib#post-558132 Sat, 09 Feb 2013 16:23:01 +0000 maybebaby 558132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: Ohh I see what you mean. LO is so cute! I am planning to make a DIY crib skirt from Young House Love which is just panels of hemmed fabric that are actually velcroed to the crib--I wonder if you could rig your existing crib skirt to velcro it under the mattress to get the look? <a href="http://www.younghouselove.com/2010/03/nursery-progress-skirting-the-issue/" rel="nofollow">http://www.younghouselove.com/2010/03/nursery-progress-skirting-the-issue/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-on-the-ikea-gulliver-crib#post-558128 Sat, 09 Feb 2013 16:19:39 +0000 mediagirl 558128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@maybebaby: the angle isn't the best but you can see a slight gap. The mattress fits pretty snugly in there, it's just not as square as the crib. </p> [attach=251/13/mhz1ws.600x450.CameraZOOM-20130209114438642.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-on-the-ikea-gulliver-crib#post-558075 Sat, 09 Feb 2013 14:48:12 +0000 mrsmate 558075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't have a crib skirt. Do you mean you can see the wood when you look down at the crib? If so, it possible your mattress is too small for the crib? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-on-the-ikea-gulliver-crib#post-558065 Sat, 09 Feb 2013 14:33:08 +0000 MsMini 558065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just took the crib skirt off and packed it up for baby #2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-on-the-ikea-gulliver-crib#post-557992 Sat, 09 Feb 2013 12:58:19 +0000 winniebee 557992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No suggestion, but we have a Pali crib and our crib skirt is too long on the lower setting, too. Meh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-on-the-ikea-gulliver-crib#post-557913 Sat, 09 Feb 2013 11:43:13 +0000 maybebaby 557913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you have a picture of what you mean? I feel like I've seen it around the web with no skirt when it is on the low setting, but I can't see wood peeking out. <a href="http://www.housetweaking.com/2013/01/22/a-crib-review-with-special-guests/" rel="nofollow">http://www.housetweaking.com/2013/01/22/a-crib-review-with-special-guests/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-on-the-ikea-gulliver-crib#post-557909 Sat, 09 Feb 2013 11:41:13 +0000 maybebaby 557909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We plan to purchase this--I would be interested to know as well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-on-the-ikea-gulliver-crib#post-557905 Sat, 09 Feb 2013 11:35:04 +0000 mediagirl 557905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We dropped the crib to its lowest point today. Uh, now there's nowhere for the crib skirt and you can see the wood under the mattress. Anyone else have this problem on the lowest crib setting? What did you do to remedy the situation? </p>
