I could be wrong, but I can't imagine ever finding any Easter decoration I love more than these old spun-cotton bunnies.
They're perfect in every way. I found them at a sale (kind of a perpetual estate sale) a couple of years ago. They were a dollar each. I left the little price tags on the bottom just to give me one more thing to love about them.
Each of them has a little spun-cotton basket with a pipe cleaner handle and forget-me-nots.
They each have velvet ears, too. The face has faded on the other bunny, but you can still just barely make out this bunny's happy expression.
We've only got another week together, until Easter. Then they'll go back to their burrow for another year. I'm always sorry to see them leave.
Oh I must agree they are perfectly Vintage Loveliness!
Darling find.. Thanks for showing them off! Hugs & Kisses, Diane

How lovely they remind me of the christmas decortations that are made the same way. I dont believe I have ever seen any like them in my travels.

Those are adorable bunnies and they would also have a special spot in my heart. I also keep price tags on the bottom of items - makes my heart race to know the good deal I got on some of my stuff!

Those bunnies really are the best! I always thought my Mom was a crazy person when she would leave a price tag on a particularly good find. But now I do it too. I think I need to go call my Mom and apologize...

Oh these are just so adorable. I dont think they should be put away until next year! Amazing that they are still together and happy I'm sure.
Happy Easter Greetings!

They are special bunnies indeed! And how endearing that you left the price tags on for a reminder!
