In the Garden Lives a Bunny



Once upon a time, in Nana's garden, a bunny lived in a little house.


She has blue eyes and loves to wear her blue checked skirt. Adventures await!
 

Her favorite toy is a carrot, almost as big as she is. She has a pillow, soft and pink, on which to lay her head.
 

At naptime, she is tucked into her little house, with the blanket pulled up snug and her beloved carrot beside her. 
 
Little Miss A is going on a road trip soon. Inspired by Pinterest and Altoids tins, I created this little play thing to take along. It's so cute I almost want one for myself. I might do a tutorial on this - it was fun to make! I'm mulling Bunny names - can you think of any?

  2. That is adorable, Lorrie. How fun that car trip is going to be now.
    I, too, would be interested in a tutorial.
    As for names, I'm drawing a blank.

  3. No, but I think that your granddaughter is going to be completely charmed by this and will certainly name her little bunny companion. Please do a tutorial. It looks like such a fun creation for many ages.

  13. It is just darling! I want one! I have thought of doing something like this from times to time. You did a beautiful job and what a perfect travel gift. I would call the bunny Honey.

  16. C'est mignon comme tout :) Même les plus grands joueraient encore avec... je suis sûre que Laure adorerait et inventerait des tas d'histoires. Elise s'est fait une poupée en tissu récemment et elle ne la quitte plus (je croyais qu'à 11 ans elle aurait d'autres préoccupations !)
    Pour ce qui est des noms de lapin, nous avions un Popotte, et un Carotte (mais là comme il a une carotte, je ne crois pas que ce soit une bonne idée)... Sinon en anglais je ne vois pas, désolée.
