reinvented


David and I spend the last couple days painting this cradle that has been in his family for years. I feel privilaged to use it now, as David slept in it as a baby along with all his siblings and the grandchildren. I think the pale yellow turned out pretty dang cute. Now all we need is the baby...

(oh, and thanks Lori for the paint color suggestion!)

A.d.o.r.a.b.l.e! And, David once slept in it too? So stinkin' sweet. (It even made me a little baby hungry- just a little.)

I really love the color- so clean and refreshing! Violet's going to love it.

That is one cute little cradle! But I am guessing what is going to be in the cradle is going to be a lot cuter.

Allison I love it! It's just soooo perfect for your new baby, and the color great too.

That turned out SO good. I love it. And I love it with the white bedding. Really cute.

Allison.. the cradle is amazing! I can't believe how good it looks. I've learned that anything you or David touch becomes gold....even an old piece of furniture off the street, and aging apt., or a family heirloom.
Voilet is a lucky little girl.

Ditto to what everyone else says. Can't wait to see Violet in it!
