A dolly Moses basket

Since Serene has taken to being a little mama to her baby, I've been looking for vintage doll furniture to foster her nurturing instincts (ha!). When it comes to doll beds, I wasn't loving the majority of cradles out there (except for this one). Serene observes me place Valor into the Moses basket, so I thought I would try to find one for her baby. On a recent thrifting trip, I scored a large basket for less than a dollar that could be repurposed into a perfect dolly Moses basket. I cleaned it well, padded it with a vintage patchwork cushion to serve as a mattress, put her baby in it, and covered it with a doll-sized muslin blanket. Serene was exceedingly pleased with her new toy and can now often be found lugging the dolly Moses basket around the house if she is not wearing her baby in her sling.
