Finding the Right Round Crib Bedding Set

Round Crib Bedding Set Challenge

Fortunately, most round crib mattresses are the same size, so most round crib bedding sets will fit a round crib mattress that's approximately 42" in diameter. There are some exceptions to this rule, but I'll discuss those a little later. The hard part is finding round crib bedding. It's not something you can just run to your local super store to get. You'll need to do some research to find a store that sells bedding sets for round cribs. You'll also want to measure your baby's mattress to make sure that you get round bedding that fits snuggly.

Your round crib may have come with a baby bedding set and if that's the case then you can search for a basic round sheet set that matches your original crib bedding and order a few sets so that you always have extra clean bedding around. I'd also recommend finding a store that sells your specific round crib and asking one of their customer service agents to direct you to the round crib bedding sets that are designed for your specific round crib model. This way you're sure that the crib bedding fits just right.

Exception to the Rule

There are some round cribs, like the Stokke Sleepi Crib and Mini that aren't made with standard dimensions. In this case I'd recommend you find a manufacturer that sells crib bedding sets made for Stokke Sleepi and Mini Crib. It's important that your baby's crib bedding set fits the mattress snuggly and isn't too loose.

If you're having twins and have opted for a twin round crib then you'll definitely want to measure those mattresses to get a crib bedding set that fits. Since you're having two babies you'll need double the crib bedding as well, so order several sets for sure!

What you get depends on your baby's type of round crib and how fancy you want it to look. Round crib bedding sets can come with any or all of the following items: Fitted Sheet, Dust Ruffle, Comforter, Bumper, Drapes or Canopy and ties.

Recap: Things to Consider When Getting a Baby Bedding Set for a Round Crib

1. Know your crib mattress dimensions. Look on the mattress for dimension information or measure the mattress yourself.
2. Decide if you want simple baby bedding or if you want the "works".
3. Find a company that makes round crib bedding for your baby's specific model crib or specific crib dimensions.
