Re: painting a crib?
You could, bu tit might be very hard cause you would have to sand it first. All those slats can be annoying.

Re: painting a crib?
It's doable. You would need to do a light sanding first so the paint adheres to the crib. Especially if it is a varnished finish.
You also need to make sure that the pain is not a "toxic" paint. Baby do put their mouth on all the edges of the crib.

Re: painting a crib?
I would not paint a crib unless maybe a professional did it. Even with that, you don't know if they will adhere to safety guidelines.
I would do some more research first
