Christmas & Winter

The Bears Are In!


Happy Friday everyone!

The bears are in thanks to all of you!  How could my husband resist after reading your comments?  He happily carried the bears back inside, and now I think I’ll find a place for them every year.  Tradition, isn’t it wonderful?

I’ve put them in a vintage pink cradle I’ve been saving for something special.  The cradle is large enough for triplets so the bears feel right at home.

This brown bear peaking out from the back is a vintage teddy bear.  He’s well loved, a bit saggy and I think he’s my favorite!  He found a home with me the minute I saw him.  He’s a shabby chic bear in every way!

How many bears can you fit in a cradle?  Lots, if they’ll share the space!

One bear (Arnold) lives  in my studio.  He’s handmade by The Vintage Magpie in Europe!  Maybe he should join his friends at Christmas but I can’t  “bear” to part with him even for a week or two!

As for those little bundles that I showed you in the studio?  We’ve packaged them up and the winners are listed below (if you’re on this list the random number generator loves you so email me your address at info@bunnyhilldesigns.com!):

    I am so glad your dear husband saw it “our” way and brought the bears in for Christmas. I love Arnold, by the looks of his nose he may have been sniffing a bit too often in the honey pot! Perhaps I can find room for my bears under or near the tree this year..I am sure when my grand daughter comes home from college she will want to help me play with that. Congrats to all of your winners..

    Anne, I am seeeewwwww, excited to be a winner. Thank you so much. I would say you just made my day, but actually, everytime you post there is something in it makes me happy…though there is a bigger smile on my face than usual just now. Congratulations to the other winners and please, don’t anyone get hurt doing the ‘Happy Dance’, LOL. Also, I am delighted that the bears are ‘in’. They look so snuggly in the cradle. Perfection. As for Arnold he is so adorable I can see why you don’t want to part with him. Oh my gosh he looks so loved! Thanks for sharing these delightful bits of your life with us. Thanks again for your generosity and now I’m off to shoot you an email. Big Hugs…
