    I would say white, only because it kind of goes with everything...

    um plain, as all my kids have teethed on ours, so the paint would chip of. So if you do paint it make sure it none toxic paint.

    I would have said a colour that closest matches your tallboy....i like things to match....and i would want my cot to match my other furniture i.e the tallboy.

    Just a suggestion. GL....

    Could you maybe sand it back and stain it? I don't know whether the stain would be non-toxic though? I'm a big fan of solid wood - it's very classic. And it's something that will last if you have more kids, too. It won't go out of style.

    That is of course if it is a wooden cot... I'm kind of assuming here... lol
