decal application
Please follow these directions to apply optional vinyl decal.
Make sure that the crib surface is clean and dry.
Vinyl is easier to apply before the crib is assembled.
Use invisible tape to attach
decal at the desired location.
Apply tape only on the top
edge of the decal.
Gently lift the decal up without
removing it from the crib and
slowly peel off the back layer
of paper. The adhesive on
the back of the decal is very
sticky. Make sure that the
back of the decal does not
touch the crib surface while
you are removing the back
layer of paper.
Once the back layer of paper
is removed, lower the decal
to make contact with the crib
surface.
Apply pressure on top of
the decal to adhere decal to
crib surface. Start from the
middle and work your way
out to the sides. Use a hard
and smooth object such as
a credit card to rub on top of
the decal. Make sure to apply
pressure on all areas of the
graphic.
Starting at one corner, slowly
remove the top layer of paper
and invisible tape.

injury or death.
Read all instructions before assembling crib. KEEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE.
