On a Bunny Kick!
Lately have been obsessed with bunnies!
Made a rust painted bunny using a Dollar Tree rabbit. Ended up gifting it to my co-worker's daughter and she loved it.
Bought two more DT bunnies and painted them rust as well.
Grabbed an empty plastic bottle, covered it with foil and masking tape, then covered it with air dry clay. Once dry, painted it with acrylic paint mixed with baking soda. Created a nightgown out of old flour sack, added velvet ribbon, and it became the cutest thing ever!
Yesterday created a rabbit pattern, cut out some heavy muslin, then sewed and stuffed another bunny! Added pantaloons and socks from my craft bag along with the last of the velvet ribbon. Love it!!
My rust and fabric bunnies are now hanging out in the bathroom.
Something bit me in the butt today and I ended up doing four loads of laundry, cleaned up the craft corner and office, performed industrial bathroom and shower cleaning, baked a batch of brownies, dusted all the glass tables in the living room, organized the dresser top, including hooking my earrings together on a small, mesh metal basket, sorted my clothes and gifted Candy two bags along with brownies to Jordan, then celebrated my accomplishments by taking a nice long shower! Phew!
