Monday Bunday: Foodie Bunnies

  Hope you are having a great Easter! Today’s Monday Bunday is a real treat found via Pinterest. But try as I may, I cannot find any information on the original artist. How sweet are these foodie bunnies? The artist has expertly captured a specific type of bunny. I love the downturned mouths, short ears and compact shape and I can tell that the artist loves bunnies and food very much. I don’t know if these were posed and drawn from life or fictional scenes but I wouldn’t let Tofu the bunny within a metre of a whole croissant. He loves baked goods and would gobble it up without batting a third eyelid. I still remember one Easter when he stole a hot cross bun from my handbag. If you thought that rabbits couldn’t commit a crime, I can assure you, if there are baked goods involved, they are ruthless. If you recognise the these illustrations or better still, if you are the artist please comment below. Back to work tomorrow. Le sigh.

Monday Bunday: Stars by the door stitching

I positively squealed when I saw Emma Hall’s cuddly stitched bunnies (she also offers bears). I’m head over heels in love with this sock bunny. If I adopted this, we’d be best friends and have matching outfits and spend our time drinking sweet tea and bunny shaped biscuits. How cute is that chubby bunny shape? You can find these and many more at her Etsy shop here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/starsbythedoorstitch  

Monday Bunday: Star Wars loves bunnies

Rabbits, a.k.a. lagomorphs can melt the hearts of the cruelest fictional characters. Even the villains of Star Wars have a soft spot for lagomorphs. Don’t believe me? Here’s the proof! Kelly Kerrigan painted these tributes in memory of her late husband. Who was either was a rabbit supporter or a Star Wars fanatic. Maybe both. I imagine these are highly collectable from a pop culture or animal lover points of view. You can claim your very own little piece of culture over on Kelly’s Etsy store: Tramp Lamps.

Monday Bunday: Ham Made

It was inevitable that someone like me – a ham fanatic – would fall deeply in love with anything bearing the name “HAM MADE”. Jo Robinson – a farmer’s daughter, fine artist and designer from East London is behind the genius of Ham Made and these sweet illustrations are simple but give us a glimpse into a whimsical world. If you ask me, I think the rabbits are quite the thrill seekers, but not in a suicidal bunnies kind of way. “HAM captures unexpected moments from the contented lives of a pig, a horse and a rabbit.” You can purchase Ham Made products directly from their website http://www.hammade.com.

Monday Bunday: The Welsh Rabbit Cheesery

This restaurant branding for The Welsh Rabbit Cheesery by Candy Coated Universe is smart and sassy. I love the nod to vintage design as well as the twee rehash of classic tattoo art. The limited colour palette with touches of red is very chic these days. I hope this look is here to stay. The twine and brown paper packaging with rubber stamp make me pine for cheese. Oh no wait, I pine for cheese just fine on my own. See more work from Candy Coated Universe at their website here. This project was designed for Tenfold Collective who I’ve blogged about before and are also tickled by bunny shapes.

Tofu Tuesday: Tofu and the white rabbit

I’ve been meaning to share this white rabbit with you. On my birthday last month, some friends held a fair at their place on Beresford Square. Another friend, Nick Rule, hand sculpts characters and casts them in wax and resin. Naturally, The Koala got a resin rabbit for me for my birthday. The detail is stunning and the pocket watch really works. I keep this bunny on my bedside table. There is a special Christmas fair this Sunday at their place again so if you’re around and looking to shop for Christmas or just to treat yourself to some lovely things, the next fair is promising to be bigger. More info on the fair here.
