| The Classic Oeuf crib
My first featured product is the Classic Oeuf Crib. I have one so I know that I like it and it seems to be the breakout modern crib.
When I was pregnant with my son I preordered this crib, sight-unseen, for the nursery. I searched for a place to see one in person before ordering it, but they were nowhere to be found. I loved the design and most importantly, I loved the changing table platform. Our nursery is too small for a lot of furniture and I already had a bookshelf that I wanted in the room instead of a separate changing table. I couldn’t find anything that could compare to the Oeuf crib in that price range and took the gamble. We waited several weeks for the crib to be released and when we finally assembled the crib it was perfect.
They have come out with a matching dresser and a walnut stain base as well. I have spotted them on television (I believe Extreme Makeover Home Edition, one episode of Bringing Home Baby and I think Samantha Bee and Jason Jones on The Daily Show have one in their nursery) and in magazines.
Oeuf's other lines of furniture, are the Sparrow line, includes a crib, twin bed, night stand, changing table and wardrobe. (check it out) and the Robin line with crib and dresser.
