Day 198: Bumble bunnies

OK.  So, last week Kim posted the directions for these cute, little bees.  Aren't they the sweetest little things?  We were going to make them together, but Julia said that it was EASTER, and we shouldn't be making bees out of the empty plastic eggs.  We should be making bunnies, of course.

So we did. 

Using Kim's directions, we altered things a little bit, and made bunnies.  The ears are felt with a bit of wire inside to make them bend.  Whiskers are pieces of fishing line taped together in the middle but then glued down with a daub of hot glue with a pom-pom nose on top.  But they look kind of silly, flying through the air the way they do.  I might need to think up some rabbit feet--for luck.

And YES I will tell you guys all about the Maple Festival.  But I have a photo yet to take of some of the maple goodies from the festival, so I'm going to save it for another day this week when I have nothing else to photograph.  Which will probably happen sooner rather than later--especially if it keeps raining.

Nighters!
