Taking up the conversation from my last post, I promised to share photos of my rabken egg project. The egg is about six inches tall so I had a task ahead of me.
If you remember from yesterday, the eggs a rabken leaves as gifts are hollow. I began by drawing an oval on one side.
Then I cut an opening in the rabken egg.
A bit of primer was next.
Some pink paint since Spring is nearly here.
Tinsel, must have some tinsel . . .
and some Dresden trim too – in silver.
Added some flowers here . . .
and there. Added a banner too.
But it’s missing something. What is it missing?
Oh, I know, it needs a little Spring bunny.
Like this one:
A bunny home! There now, the rabken should be very happy.
Maybe, if I keep the garden untended, she’ll leave me another egg. (Not a problem!) I think this bunny needs a condo for a friend. Oh that’s right, I already have another egg. Hm-m-m-m. Guess I better get busy!
It’s rabken season!
Oh what a sweetheart.
ReplyDeleteAdorable!!! Such a sweet shade of pink, love her!!!

Oh, so darling! :)
ReplyDeletePerfect!
Просто здорово!!!! Зайчик замечательный и его домик-яйцо такое нежно-весеннее!
ReplyDeleteOh, Ginger! Beautiful bunny, gorgeous egg! Just perfect!
ReplyDeleteNice job done! :) I like it, both the egg and the bunny! Super idea!
ReplyDeleteI love when you do these, so gorgeous and spring like!
ReplyDeleteThat is just too, too cute...
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of the little sugar egg diaramas my mom made us once as kids. She told us they weren't edible... but they were made of sugar, we were sure she was wrong.
Turns out she wasn't wrong, they tasted horrible, and years later we have little sugar eggs filled with a magical scene inside, and nibbled slightly on the outside.
Hopefully no one wants to nibble rabken eggs!
Now that is adorable!! I have a pedistal egg I'm re-doing, it is a bethany lowe but it wasn't all that pretty when I bought it...I have a picture of it in an earlier post..yours is gorgous! hugs, Jennifer
ReplyDeletewonderful!! What a happy home for a bunny.
