If you want to spruce up your crib on a dime, try grabbing some iron-ons from the Dutch Trade Shop and pick one item in your home as your science project. High quality, easy to use, and wayyy cute, I'm thinking a pillow for starters, or if you feel a bit daring, try cotton or canvas curtains. You can add a few birdies, maybe 3 flying up the panel from bottom to top, just keep the design on the bottom 1/3 of one panel only so it's cute and not overkill. An iron-on isn't just for tees 'n bags anymore! Just be careful, you can definitely destroy the vibe you're going for if you apply an iron-on to everything you own. Again, be selective (I'd opt for one item) and remember, we're going for an accent here, not the focal point of the room.
