Caner Rachael South restores a beautiful wicker cradle that has been in use for generations. With a new addition to the family on the way the owner hopes to be able to pass this on to her grandchild and keep the heirloom alive. Meanwhile, Brenton West fixes a much-loved powder compact, made in the shape of a piano.
