Distressed Nursery Furniture

Just as people with a past are interesting, so is furniture that looks as though it’s lived through some rough patches. Intentionally shabby, slightly worn furniture is in vogue, and we are obsessed with it. 

But just because it has that slightly worn look, does not have to mean that it is worn at all! 

Distressed furniture is meant to feel homey and that is exactly what Milk Street Baby is striving for. Distressed furniture also make for amazing statement pieces in a nursery. 

Check out some of the items Milk Street has come out with: 


Distressed furniture is such a work of art, and truly brings a piece of furniture to life. Milk Street takes pride in creating quality distressed items. 

Here are a few highlights of the products mentioned above: 

True Traditional Crib (on sale)! 

Our True cribs are in-stock and ready to ship now. Order soon.

This traditional crib boasts angular lines of deeply distressed Spruce with a cubist style, you will truly own a “one of a kind” piece of art! . Minimal. Efficient. Clean. Unlike most furniture classified as contemporary, our True Collection works well with all styles.

This is Milk Street's only “traditional style” crib, meaning it has no high-back so it does not need to be positioned against a wall. It can be floated in the center of a room!  The traditional True crib is ideal for that smaller space nursery.

How One Mama is Making the Most of Summer's With Her Babies

I feel like every kid should experience summer time in the South. I remember waking up every summer morning and being so excited to get outside!
