New things...

 

Since I took a vacation break I'm just now getting

 around to posting a few new things I made..

 

 

 

 

This one says "Appreciate the little things"

along the rim.

 

 

 

A few new Bunny Ornaments

 

 

They were all drawn in clay and

then cut out by hand with a blade.

 

 

 

 

A few Jewelry Items...

 

 

Bracelets are a favorite of mine.

I have a bunch of ideas after making

these first ones.

 

 

 

 

Thanks for taking a peek

at some of my new items.

These are inventory

for a Art Market

I am doing in Nov.

 

 

 

 

Working Hard.....

 

 

I have been working hard.

I haven't had much luck with my Poppy bowls.

This is my 3rd bowl all my others

cracked.  I don't know why...exactly

Too many things can cause it.

 

 

 

I plan to take part in this artist market in Nov.

Above is a very detailed bird bath

 I just completed.  I am just praying

that it doesn't crack.

 

 

You never know until you try,

so I will see what happens. 

 

 

This is a large Santa plaque that

will be mounted on a wood tray.

 

 

Coneflower bowl

 

 

Santa walking through the snow.

 

 

This is a winter Blue Jay

 

 

A male and Female Cardinal

 

 

 

 

Of course I had to make a winter rabbit!

 

 

 

 

 

Bunny Love

I can remember specifically when my love

for bunnies started.  I was a young

 girl in Zwiebrucken Germany.  I used to visit

the pet store downtown because I loved animals.

I remember they had a big play area full of

little rabbits.  I was just drawn to them more

than any other animal.  I decided then and there

I would have a pet rabbit.  My Dad was in the Military

so we moved a lot.  Which meant extra expenses to ship

our animals with us when we moved. 

Even so  I got my first rabbit at 14.

Chippy! I got him from a neighbor

in Fort Stewart GA. for my birthday.

He had them in his back yard in

 a hutch in the God awful heat.

Lucky for Chippy he always lived inside.

My dad built him a big cage.

Back then house rabbit info didn't exists. 

Yet Chippy went potty in a bowl in his cage.

That dear brave rabbit traveled with

my family to Frankfurt Germany in

the cargo hold of the plane. Can you

imagine how scared he must have been?

I don't know how he survive but he did.

We traveled everywhere with him.

He would ride in my bike basket

and I would dress him up for Halloween..

He'd camp with us in our big

van.  He traveled back to the

US with us when my Dad

was stationed here in MI and he moved

out with me to my first apartment at 18.

Sadly Chippy only lived to be 5.

He got cancer because he wasn't neutered.

It just wasn't done back then.

Yet who knew one little $5 rabbit would

inspire so much in my life!  I still have

pet rabbits and as you can see rabbits

are often a theme in my art. 

 

All rabbits have their own

 personalities.  Likes and dislikes

 

 

 

They let you know what they want.

without making noise.

Here the big buns were letting me know

I was late with their dinner and they

didn't appreciate it.

 

 

They can be inquisitive

 

 

or Lazy!

 

 

They get along with other pets.

 

 

 

 

They can be house trained and live

in your household just like a cat or dog

once you have bunny proofed electrical

cords or things you don't want chewed.

 

 

 

 

They are affectionate and l want

to interact with you and need

attention.  The more time you put

into them the more you get back.

 

 

 

 

I am so grateful that my husband

supports all my loves.

They all love him!  Can you tell?

 

 

I love my crazy fluffy household!
