Clever Ways to Upcycle an Old Crib

Turn an old crib into a cute bench {and adding a fabulous paint job makes it even better!}.

Transform a crib into a quail or chicken coop.  I absolutely love this idea and just wish I was allowed to have chickens in my yard here in the suburbs.

Turn a crib into a toy bench with storage.  Furniture that multitasks as storage space is about as good as it gets, right?

An old crib makes a sweet reading nook, especially when paired with comfy pillows and a canopy. {Sorry, I can no longer find a live link for this project so you’ll have to take the inspiration from the photo.}

With a few small steps, a crib can be turned into a unique wagon.  Adorable, isn’t it?

Turn a crib into a shelf for books.  {We’re always needing more book storage space.}

Transform an old crib into a beautiful plate rack.  I could really use this in my dining room!

Repurpose a crib into a fun art station for the kids …

Turn the side of a crib into an organizer for any room.  I love that this idea can be adapted for any space in the home.

And finally, upcycle a crib into a sandwich board chalkboard …
