Monday Bunday: Top 5 Bunny Banks

I couldn’t stop at showing you just one bunny bank.  I know Tofu the bunny isn’t good with money, but perhaps if you look at a rabbit as a symbol of exponential growth, then bunny banks are a positive way to save. Top 5 bunny banks from the interwebs: 5. Bunny Money Bank R217 ($31.50US / $38NZ) from Egg Junior. 4. Lucky Forest Bunny Money Bank $18 from Liapela. 3. Two’s Company Bunny Bank $5.25 from Tender Treasures. 2. Rabbit Money Bank £14 from Oliver Bonas. And the winner goes to: 1. Grass Flocked Rabbit Bank $22 from Greener Grass Design.

Monday Bunday: Father Rabbit

This logo exudes class and tradition with a touch of whimsy by the looped ascenders, suggesting lagomorph ears. Did you like my typography design geek speak? Too much? Yeah, maybe… Father Rabbit is an online shop run by Nick and Claudia out of their Grey Lynn villa. This is a store for the discerning rabbit friendly home. They stock a good mix of overseas and also local designers like Bunnyinabirdsuit (Auckland), Bianca Lorenne (New Plymouth), Workroom Design (Auckland) Being an online shop, it really doesn’t matter that they were just a few suburbs over from me, but it’s nice to see and appreciate the aesthetic of locals. I want just about everything from their shop for our villa. These gift sets give you a good idea of the items they stock. Some other pretty pics from their gallery… They even have a fledging recipe section. And of course I love the Belle & Boo cushion they have. It’s double sided! Lots of lagomorphs on the back. Swoon. http://www.fatherrabbit.com

Monday Bunday: Dust Bunny and OCD Chef

Adorable Dust Bunny by Fred and Friends. Inside every home cook is an OCD chef just dying to get out. Get this The OCD Chef chopping board for the OCD chef in you. Marked out on the board are medium dice, small dice, julienne and fine julienne. Unfortunately it looks like the measurements are in inches so maybe not for the metric OCD chefs. This chopping board makes the OCD chef in me squeal in delight and then laugh maniacally. You can get it from Fred & Friends www.worldwidefred.com. I’ve been a fan of Fred Flare since forever. Their quirky, whimsical yet useful accessories and knickknacks are right up my alley. Their newer brand Fred & Friends has some awesome kitchen and house goodies. Great for gifts and for yourself. Can be found online or also at your local Living and Giving store.
