You may or may not know, just like any other convertible crib, Dream On Me Violet crib comes with lots of stickers. And trust me, it’s so annoying and difficult to remove them with bare hands.
So, this is what experienced parents did. As per their advice, use WD-40. In case you don’t know about it, it’s a penetrating oil and water-displacing spray. Set the WD-40 on stickers for a minute and use something like a credit card to remove those stickers.
Hold on… I know another solution!
Instead of WD-40, you can use a warm wet towel on those stickers for a minute and remove them!
