This is a cradle I made for my niece when she was a baby. Well, now she is having babies and has a little girl of her own. She found it stored in her parents attic and it was in pretty bad shape. I took and sanded it down, it was a dark brown, and cleaned it up. Instead of restaining it, I left it natural and just put an oil finish over it. The wife made the blanket and is looking for a doll to put in it. We will give to the great-niece for Easter.

Looks great , a true family heirloom! Isn’t it great something you made can be used over again down through the years! :thumb:

I am getting ready to start a full size cradle very similar to what you made.
