Rocking Swan

I was at D.I. last night looking for some furniture I could refinish. Instead I found this awesome wooden rocking swan. I thought that one day it would look darling in a little nursery. It's missing the velvety plush body. Hopefully I can find a replacement or figure out something similar I can make. I was excited to find that my $8 purchase sells new for $475. Not bad.

    I'm positive you will be able to figure out how to make it even cuter than it was with it's old plush body! What a deal!

    That is adorable. Now that I see it I like it. It didn't sound too cute, but it is super cute. Good buy, you can't beat $8.

    We have exactly the same toy for our youngest son except ours is a dragon! It is so cute and sturdy and we plan to pass it on to our grandkids (our son recieved it from his great-grandmother). I'm sure you will be able to use your various, incredible talents to restore it and use it too!
