I think the idea is lovely! Me, personally, I would play up the vintage angle by using as many opportunities as possible to bring in color, design and details that look antique. I poked around online to see how these desks look and found a nice pic with the basic bare bones of converting a crib to a desk. (I feel the modern chair and random desk accessories are good examples of NOT playing up the "vintage" angle.Helpful Reply -
