Just the rail cover — a bold true red with a soft white ruffle beneath it, cut and sewn by hand in our Alabama studio.
Gathered white ruffle along the bottom edge, slim white ties that slip between the spindles and all but disappear, and a solid red panel doing all the work in between. The red is Santa's coat rather than a fire engine: warm and deep enough to feel like a holiday, plain enough that nobody has to take it down in January. Against a white crib it is one clean band of color, and it is the cheapest way to change the whole look of a nursery without changing the nursery.
Details:
- Solid red cotton with a gathered white ruffle and slim white fabric ties
- Ruffled construction — the ruffle runs the length of the bottom edge
- Covers one long crib rail; crib skirt and bows sold separately
- Optional custom monogram, stitched on the rail cover itself; any color can be changed — leave a note at checkout
- 100% cotton — soft, breathable, machine washable
- Handmade to order in Alabama
Good to Know:
- Cherry Red is our name for this bright, true red. It is a different red from our Country Red, which is darker and deeper — the two are meant to be chosen rather than mixed
- Monogramming goes on the rail cover, centered on the solid red. White stitching on a solid ground is the easiest monogram to actually read from across a room
- This listing is the rail cover on its own. It is also sold with the matching white farmhouse crib skirt, with or without two large white bows
- Red and white earns its keep three times a year — Christmas, Valentine's, and the Fourth of July — without reading as a theme in between
- Ruffled means a gathered ruffle along the edge; our Tailored, Scalloped and Farmhouse rail covers are the same fit in a different edge treatment
Coordinates With:
- This rail cover with the matching white farmhouse crib skirt
- The same pairing with two large white bows
- The folk deer rail cover — the same red story as a print instead of a solid
- White fitted crib sheet — the sheet shown here
- Christmas Crib Bedding — the rest of the holiday nursery
Fits: The crib rail cover rests over the top rail of the crib only. It does not go inside the crib and does not cover the crib sides, slats, or interior openings. Made for a standard crib's long rail; leave a note at checkout for a mini crib or a short-side cover.
Made to Order: Sewn when you order, in our Alabama studio.
A standard crib mattress is 28" × 52", and our pieces are cut to match it — 52" long rail covers, 28" short rail covers, and fitted sheets sized to that mattress. If your crib takes a standard mattress, no measuring is needed.
Crib skirt drops — farmhouse skirts are 20", ruffled skirts are 22". To find your drop, measure from just under the mattress support straight down toward the floor. Want a different length? Tell us your measurement at checkout and we'll make it to that, at no extra charge.
Rail cover drape — approximately 20" down each side of the rail, inside and out.
Mini cribs — sheets fit a 24" × 38" mattress, and most pieces can be made in mini sizing on request.
Antique, imported, or non-standard crib? Send us your measurements — everything is cut to order.
Every piece is made from 100% cotton sourced from American mills — no synthetic blends, no flame-retardant treatments, no chemical finishes.
Pre-washed before we cut. Every yard is washed and dried in our studio before a single piece is cut, so your bedding arrives already soft and won't shrink on you at home. That relaxed, lived-in texture is the washed cotton at work — and it irons or steams to a crisp finish if you prefer that look.
Washing — machine wash cold on gentle, separately. Skip bleach and fabric softener; both break down natural cotton over time.
Drying — tumble dry on medium, separately. A quick toss in the dryer is the easiest way to release wrinkles between uses.
Ironing — optional, on medium heat. Avoid starch sprays. A handheld steamer works well too.
Every piece is sewn to order in our Alabama studio, so nearly every detail can be changed.
Color changes — swap any color on any product: ruffles, cording, accents, bows, ties, or the body of the piece itself. Mix and match across a set however you like. Most color changes are free of charge.
Monograms and personalization — add initials, a name, or a meaningful date, with your choice of font and thread color. $30 per piece.
Style and sizing — prefer a tailored look without ruffles? Need mini crib sizing? Both are available on request.
