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!):

Ready?

Congratulations to all of you who won, and thank you to all who entered.   I’ll be back with the final Snowbound block on the 5th!  Have you been keeping up?

Hugs,

    The bears are darling and definitely need to be out for Christmas. I have a small sleigh that I put some of my bears in but trust me they all get out somewhere. I too loved doing the snowmen and am planning on taking on Tisket a Tasket next. Bears would definitely be a fun one to do :)
    Thank you for all you do!!

    oh my goodness, oh my gosh, I think I am #312! I am SOOOOOOOO excited, I can’t believe I won. Oh thank you! I have been under the weather the last few days, but now suddenly, I feel sunny and warm. Thank you for being so generous. Your blog makes me happy EVERY single time I visit! I just learned we are having another grandchild. The fabric will be perfect!

    So…I guess this means the hush money didn’t do me any good??? Or do you think it was because I didn’t answer my phone today??? Hmmmm. Oh well, congratulations to your winners anyway. All those bears sure look happy to be in such an animal friendly home!
