the sweetest little bunny with it's carrots
For this sweet antique inspired bunny, egg and little carrots I formed them by using the antique spun cotton technique.
A little history of spun cotton: The making of Spun cotton ornaments originated in Germany in the 19th century. Cotton was spun around a wire frame and sealed with a natural glue or starch.
Bunny is painted white and stained with a Grimm-mix to give it an antique vintage feel. Bunny has pink bead eyes. Bunny is accented with pink ribbon bow.
The carrots are painted orange stained with a Grimm-mix to give it an antique vintage feel.
I made the egg with spun cotton, painted soft blue and sprinkled with clear German glass glitter.
The carrots inside of egg basket can be removed.
The carrot bunny is holding is firmly attached to bunny's hand and can not be removed.
Egg basket and Bunny are firmly attach to mossy base and can not be removed.
The base is embellished with vintage millinery flowers and little eggs.
Piece measures 3 1/2 inches x 4 inches.
