Remove the movable side and make it a dog bed or make it an entry bench with bins underneath, for shoes.
I like the dog bed idea! Or you could remove one of the railings and convert the crib to a daybed or bench.
You can convert to a bench. Especially great for the child and if you enclose the bottom and hinge the seat it will double as a toy box.

Here's 20 different ideas Linda! I have made benches out of cribs, and used the short sides as Christmas card holders by attaching clips! Lots of fun things you can do!

I have seen them turned into a daybed , or lower the springs to the lowest setting , take off the front , add extra support to the bottom since the front panel is off . Then make it like a lower sofa or loveseat for your child . You can also paint the crib and use it in your garden for growing herbs , you can set the spring level to a comfortable level to work with , keeping the front helps to keep animal pests away from your herbs .
They make great swings or even benches!
