The People Who Lift Me Up

Nov 30, 2009

Someone is thumping to meet you...

 
I am so happy to say that Flake the Snow Bunny has decided to make his appearance. Actually he bullied and thumped his way into the spotlight to be honest. LOL

I suppose it's pretty obvious by now that I love sculpting  feet and big ones at that. Well Flake, has without a doubt, made wonderful use of his and my ankles have the proof to show of that ha. He was not too patient while waiting for me to reveal him.


This lil bunny was such a special treat for me to work on as he is the prize for my Christmas contest that I am throwing for my past customers as a way to say thank you and Merry Christmas.

Flake is so very proud to be the prize for such an exciting contest! He is such a happy bunny with super large chubby feet that are just perfect for thumping through the snow, which he loves to do!

I created Flake out of super soft white fur and craft velour. I hand sculpted his sweet little face then colored it using water color pencils and pens. His ears I wired for fun posing possibilities and he has a huge cotton tail to soften his falls when he thumps out of place.


Flake's arms and legs are sting jointed. He measures approx. 7 inches sitting (including ears) and approx. 9 1/2 - 10 inches with legs straight (including ears).



This darling bunny loves, oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, hot spiced carrot juice, and playing in the snow with his faerie friends.

  11. Hi Ree!! I was just looking out into our garden watching big Bunny and our cat, Ned, chasing one another. And your bunny reminds me of him. I always laugh at his huge over sized feet at the back are compared to his tiny front ones. It's really weird! I can imagine him thumping in the snow! He is terrific!!
