Default rocking dolls cot

i have been asked by my partner to make a dolls cot for our daughters birthday.....this has been going on since christmas and i finally got my finger out and got it started a few weeks ago....again this is more aless bits of wood thats been laying around the shed before it gets chopped for firewood, i did have some help on this one from my dad as he had the tools to finish the edges off better etc....this is how it turned out....
all good intentions were for it to rock but when it was finally put together it fell over as it was top heavy hence the extra bits on the legs....now it rocks really well and just put the finishing touches to it the other day by painting it....i know our daughter will love this....

Lovely work. Now that it's finished your partner can make the bedding ;o) Lucky birthday girl!
I actually like the 'extra' legs it makes a really good design feature.

Hi there, well done, this is beautiful and great use of bits and pieces without great expense. I love the pink hearts--can just picture the cot with little pink gingham pillow and cover!! Eibhlin.
