refinishing a babies crib?

i have been given a crib, i want to either paint it white or stain it a different color? which is best for the baby??

and whats the process you did?

First, you need to strip and sand the crib. (Check out the MinWax line at your local hardware) Make sure you get all the edges and work them down smooth with a fine grit sandpaper. Also, replace any loose or ill fitting hardware and use a good wood glue (I recommend Elmer’s Wood Glue) to help solidify the joints.
After that, you can use a latex paint to paint it white (Disney has a great line and so does Nickelodeon). If you use a stain, make sure it is water based. You can ask your local hardware what the best stain is for your application. Good luck!
