My Half Lop Love

All of the rabbits are special and amazing in their own very unique way, we love them all...

but my Misa, oh my sweet little half-lop love, she is a best friend to me, she's extraordinarily special.

Lydia & ALF

Lydia was reminding me of somebody...

The long nose...the big black eyes...the perfect hair swoosh..

and it dawned on me, she was reminding me of ALF, so I dug out my ALF doll to compare,

 what do you think???

Studio Sweetness

So this is what most of my days look like (besides the pain)...sweet, soft...joyful...

happy at home, in the studios, hanging with bunnies (and my honey)...what could be better?!

Some Kind Of Wonderful

We've done something wonderful and beautiful

(well Misa isn't thinking that it's wonderful whatsoever!)...

I hate my superstitious side but it's strong & present

so I'll just say for now that I hope I can tell you soon!!!!

Weekend Wishes

This weekend I wish for you a weekend that is

as cozy and sweet as a soft sleepy bunny XO

Weekend Wishes

My precious muse Miss Misa and I are hoping that your having a beautiful weekend

& that wherever you are we hope you can feel Spring in the air & that your feeling full of hope XO.

Zoey

My parents got a new little puppy, she's already healing their sore hearts & I am obsessed with her!

 

They've named her Zoey & she's the sweetest little bundle of furry sunshine, oh my gawd LOVE her!



Finding A Fledgling

We came across a bit of wild magic...

in the middle of a busy road,

being narrowly missed by each car barreling by,

we saw this little fledgling, peeping away, obviously lost & helpless.

 

 

I didn't think twice, I knew my hon bun would block traffic with the truck as best as possible

whiles I jumped out to try to help the little darling

(or rather I hobbled out cause I had my knee brace on!) 



 

I thought it would be enough to scoop her up off the road but when I did so,

she was obviously even more helpless than I originally thought...

so I followed her, she didn't know where to go poor sweet-ling.

So I called Jonathan for help, he came with a blanket, gently scooped her up and home we went.

We couldn't leave her there to starve or get squashed!

 

So afternoon plans now out the window...lunch gone bad from too long out in heat...

we sat in the yard with her for the rest of the day, thinking she'd get her baring's and be on her way.

But she wouldn't move after hours and finally when a chipmunk scared the bejeezus out of her,

causing her to get tangled up and stuck in a thorny rosebush...we decided to bring her in for the night.

 

She would let me hold her on my chest as Jonathan opened her mouth and popped food in.

Fresh corn kernels, fresh peas, little pieces of cherry and such.

If we held up a teaspoon to her mouth she would drink 2 or 3 spoons all in one go.

After eating, tucked against my warm neck, she'd fall asleep and nap away.

 

And so it went like this for a couple weeks...feeding her and her napping on me.

We researched online and it became clear that we couldn't let her go until we saw she could fly

and saw that she could recognize food on the ground and feed herself...

well little miss didn't do that for quite some time!



 Almost a month later, she is still here...we'll see what happens!

But this has been the perfect example of what I mean when I tell people to let their

sensitively and vulnerability shine through because it's through these
that we experience many of life's beautiful mysteries and magic's...

we refused to be just any one of the cars just looking but still zooming on by

and thank goodness for that because she's been some kind of magic in our little household!

Chantilly Swish In Progress

I haven't done one of my old 'Nubbin' doll characters in awhile

and even though I won't be able to actually make her into one of my decorative figures till summer

I am enjoying her (and the snowy landscape from my upper studio window)...

 

 

Want to be one of the first to see her when she's completed?

Wiesner

Everyone meet my newest little character

Weisner

He's a Black Chinned Yuhina and has quite the interesting story...

but guess what? There are only 3 ways you can hear about his intriguing tale

1) buy a print of him in my shop

2) be a recipient of my newsletters or sign up if your not already on my list

 or 3) buy my very first book of quirky characters when it comes out.

 

 

And my lovely friends, this is where I leave you for a very short spell.

I am going to take a short blog break to enjoy these last days of August with my hon and buns.

When we come back in September we'll be moving over to my brand new website...

I will indeed let you know all the details when we come back.

See you again soon...Happy End of Summer and be super duper well.

XO
