Newborn Angora Bunnies Beat Tax Deadline!

Nine angora bunnies were born April 14, 2008, in time to keep the tax man in our good graces. We are blessed to have five white, two black and two different shades of gray angora bunnies.

Enjoy the photo's we could not resist taking.

Springing Into Action


I have been a busy bee as of late. Designing juices have been flowing like a river! Easter had me busy making about 36 little bunnies for special orders (only one made it to etsy, and still remains - go figure).


I have created several scarfs from golden retriever yarn for customers, which was quite a bit of fun. And now I find myself utilizing some intriguing yarns - made from plastic grocery bags!


I cut the bags, spin the strips into yarn and use the wound ball to make little coupon holders. I just put one on etsy, so we'll see what the hand-madesters there think, but locally they seem to be a bit of a hit. I am working on a purse since I personally think that would be fabulous! I actually hate plastic grocery bags, so this was more of a mental project than anything. Now I find myself begging friends who have not yet found it in their hearts to go green for their grocery bags. Nothing like free fiber, ur uh, plastic grocery bags (did I just say I'm thankful for plastic grocery bags?)!
