Baby crib bedding shoppers prefer Baby Supermall and for good reason: 1. Baby Supermall has many crib bedding sets in stock. Most Web retailers of baby crib bedding only sell their crib bedding on special order or to be delivered to you directly by the manufacturer - they do not order your baby bedding from the manufacturer until after they receive your order. You must wait weeks, sometimes even months, for delivery of your order. Be careful of Websites that do not clearly disclose their delivery policies - if they do not clearly state that they have your crib bedding in stock and ready for delivery, they probably do not. They are simply hoping for fast delivery from the bedding manufacturer and your patience in the event that does not happen. Baby Supermall carries over 70 different baby crib bedding sets (and many of the coordinating nursery accessories) in stock and ready for delivery to you. You can shop with confidence, knowing that your crib bedding order will be shipped immediately. Place baby crib bedding items in your baby gift registry with the knowledge that each item will ship immediately when ordered by your family, friends, and coworkers through our baby registry. 2. You dont pay Baby Supermall until your crib bedding order is shipped. Most Websites sell their crib bedding on a special order basis only. You must wait weeks for delivery of your order; but they charge your credit card immediately! This works very well for them - they collect from you long before they ship your baby bedding to you; but dont pay for the merchandise until after they receive it from the manufacturer. You should be uncomfortable with this policy: They can use this advance collection as leverage to impose order cancellation fees if you cancel your crib bedding order. It may be more troublesome for you in the event of future disputes if you pay your credit card bill before they ship you your order. They already collected from you, giving them less incentive to ship your baby bedding to you as quickly as possible. The only exception to this policy at Baby Supermall is in the case of orders of Glenna Jean crib bedding. Glenna Jean prefers that all Websites send their orders to them for shipment to you. We charge your credit card when we transmit your order to Glenna Jean. You can cancel your Glenna Jean baby bedding order at any time prior to shipment from Glenna Jean without penalty. whereupon we will process a refund to your credit card. 3. Baby Supermall has more pictures of the infant bedding for you to see. All Websites, including Baby Supermall, show you professionally prepared pictures of the infant bedding sets and nursery accessories that are provided by the manufacturers. But Baby Supermall does not stop there! These manufacturer-supplied images give an accurate depiction of the overall look you will see in your nursery with the infant bedding sets and accessories. However, they often fail to show the beautifully detailed colors and textures that make these infant bedding sets truly extraordinary. As often as we can, Baby Supermall examines each infant set very closely and provides as many as 40 close-up pictures of the pieces of the sets. Our goal is for you to be able to see for yourself the details that will make your visitors ooh and aah when they visit your babys room. You will almost be able to feel the textures of the infant bedding fabrics. 4. Fabric samples can be sent to you for many baby crib bedding sets. Baby Supermall can send fabric samples to you for many of the crib bedding sets. These will allow you to feel the textures of the fabrics and see the colors for yourself. This is particularly important for those nursery bedding manufacturers who use premium-quality fabrics in their collections. 5. Baby Supermall strives to eliminate any delivery surprises. There can be no delivery surprises with nursery bedding that we have in stock - we can normally ship your nursery bedding order of in-stock merchandise within 24 hours of receipt. As for special ordesr, we are in continual contact with the nursery bedding manufacturers regarding expected delivery dates and update our website to reflect the latest available information. However, any number of factors at the manufacturers level can still cause surprises. To be safe, we recommend that you allow extra time if purchasing special order baby bedding. Or eliminate any worries by ordering one of the many collections that we have in stock. 6. Baby Supermall has reasonable return policies with no restocking fees. Most Websites charge restocking fees (they do not refund all of your purchase price) in amounts ranging from 10% to 50% of your purchase price of the crib bedding. There are no restocking fees at Baby Supermall if you return your purchase unused within 30 days. 7. Baby Supermall provides easy-to-reach and knowledgeable customer service. Baby Supermalls customer service personnel are very familiar with all of our crib bedding and coordinated nursery accessories and can be of great help to you if you desire. Call us any time from 9-5 Central Time, Monday - Friday, at 888-276-6654. 8. Baby Supermall has the exclusive Baby Bedding Finder tool. We developed the Baby Bedding Finder to help you find the infant bedding set that is just right for your nursery decor needs. It allows you to select characteristics of the bedding that are important to you, saving you the time it would take to review sets that would not be of interest.

Pass along one of your own family traditions, such as bringing an iron cricket on the hearth for good luck, a wreath to symbolize hospitality, or a guest book to record events and celebrations.
Give the Gift of Memories
Bring a photo album of your special times together. On the last page leave a space for a photo of their new home and write: "To be continued..." This can be an inexpensive gift that will be treasured now and in the future.
Transform the Ordinary
Flowering plants, green plants, plant baskets, or fresh flower arrangements can be a pretty ordinary gift -- or they can be
spectacular
. Choose, make, or order something really lush and gorgeous, decorated with bows, balloons, or ornaments, and placed in a beautiful container.
One Big Beautiful
... take your pick: vase, bowl, basket, cache pot, coffee table book, pitcher, or tray . Most people can use another one of these. Choose simple classic shapes and colors, or make it something special for a current holiday such as a blue bowl decorated with white stars for July 4th or a vase etched with little hearts for a housewarming close to Valentine's Day.
The Bad
Scraggly plants
Never give a plant or floral arrangement that looks like it has seen better days. This can be an additional problem in very hot or very cold weather too, since fresh greens can wilt quickly in temperature extremes. And never give a plant to someone who will have no interest in looking after it.
Pets
Never give something so personal as a pet, unless you know for a fact that this would be a welcome gift. Pets will demand a time and care commitment that many people are too busy to give.
Food
Be careful with food gifts. Candy will be all wrong for someone watching calories, while fresh fruit will be wasted if the recipients have an out of town trip coming up. Only when you know the person well can appropriate food items be chosen that will be welcomed.
Don't Ignore Their Taste
Perhaps you love antiques but your friends love contemporary. Don't force your preferences on them with an unwelcome gift of something only you think they "should" like. Chances are the gift will be a dud. Better to go with something "ordinary" than to strike out completely.
Recycled Gifts
Don't ever (repeat after me) -- don't ever give a gift that you've already received yourself, then rewrapped for someone else. It's tacky, and eventually someone will probably figure out what happened, then everyone will be embarassed.
