Available at the Little Fashion Gallery, this unique crib is actually a Customizable Cardboard Cot. The bed, designed by Album Di Famiglia is made from cardboard so you can draw your own designs on the outside. As a result, you can take pride in your Baby's cheap looking bed... The only catch is that the bed will cost you roughly $300, so it's not actually a cheep. And you thought this was just a cardboard box!
