Show and Tell: Spring Bunnies

Every now and then I enjoy taking part in Kelli's Friday Show and Tell. This Friday, I wanted to share my rabbits with you. I know it is past Easter, but I enjoy my rabbits into the summer. I do have a few of what I call "cutsie" rabbits, but my favorite ones are much more realistic. (I am also including a quote about a rabbit from Little House on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder.)

And sometimes there'd be a great gray rabbit, so still in the lights and shadows of a grass clump that you were near enough to touch hime before you saw him.

His round eyes stared at yours without meaning anything. His nose wiggled, and sunlight was rosy through his long ears, that had delicate veins in them and the softest short fur on their outsides. The rest of his fur was so thick and soft that at last you couldn't help trying, very carefully, to touch it.


Then he was gone in a flash and the place where he had been sitting was hollowed and smooth and still warm from his warm behind.


I hope you have enjoyed my Show and Tell. All of these bunnies were bought at my favorite store in recent years. (I am just waiting for the Easter stuff to be marked down more... there are a couple of bunnies I have my eye on!) :) Drop by Kelli's blog to see more Show and Tell and just have a look around, she has a beautiful blog!

Have a good Friday!

Blessings!
Charity

  4. I have an old stuffed rabbit that is a special favorite, and out in the garden, just now peeking out from winter, are three stone bunnies in the garden. When I was a little girl, along with my ktties, I had a pet bunny that roamed the house with the cats, even used the litter box!

  6. These bunnies are adorable.
    I am doing my genealogy and I found a Great-Aunt whose name was Charity Catherine. I only knew her thru stories as Aunt Kitty so this was quite fun for me. Also found the Great Grand Mother's name was Missouri Josephine. I only knew her as Grandma Jo.
    Interesting stuff! I am going to have to get some bunnies. I love the cup and saucer also....I am a big ME fan.

  7. That's a great collection and I love that you use them throughout the spring for decorating. I think I'll let a few of the more realistic ones out too! Thanks for the tip. Stop by and visit sometime!

  9. Oh, I just love your little rabbits. I particulary loved the two in your bottom photo. Very sweet!

    I love muslin bunnies, and real bunnies too. My daughter has four rabbits which are just the sweetest pets ever.
