I have been working on a new project this week, just in time for Easter! about 10 years ago my friends mom made these really cute bunnies.
I was looking at it the other day and thought, I wonder if I could make some out of burlap...So I started drawing out my pattern, and began sewing. now for those of you that have made things out of burlap, it can be kind of tricky, so it did take a few attempts, there will be no turning the ears inside out, trust me here!
Here is the gang! I had an antique cup that I put the first one in, and I am not gonna lie, I am keeping that one! 
Then I began looking around for other containers for theses cute little guys, I had an empty candle holder, and then I found my stash of sweet potato cans! SCORE! I knew just what i had to do to make them cute enough for the little bunnies to live in! Burlap, twine & wire! 
Tuck a little spanish moss inside and you are done! 
Now I totally have spring fever! I plan to decorate for spring this week! These little guys will be available in my shop a little later today!Now drum roll please......
We have 2 winners! I let my kids do the drawing, the 1st winner is:
