This little fellow was a quick project the other night, made from bits of plastic and wood, four snaps, and a plastic bunny. I sprayed the whole thing gold (the only color I had on hand, truth be told), then used red/pink, green and blue acrylics to accent the toy. Finally, it all got a heavy antique brown wash and a thread pull . He's about 1 inch tall in all.

ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful toy! I bet it will look great in your child's bedroom.
ReplyDeleteIt is gorgeous, the rabbit looks so delicate, like the old fashioned bunnies, it is so sweet!
ReplyDeleteThank you Cristel, Josje and Margaret! I have to say, this was a very and easy project. He came together really quickly, despite some really silly mistakes that I made at first!
