  2. Absolutely adorable! Now I need to go score more buck bunnies! Wish I could send you a pic of what I did last year with a similar bunny and angel wings, both from Dollar Tree. Thanks!

  3. I love it! To protect it outdoors you could cover it with some gift basket wrap some how. Just a thought.

  4. You can’t go wrong with bunnies and puppies! As much as I love the dollar store I haven’t noticed the wire wreath frames, thanks for the heads up. What you’ve done with the bunnies opens up tons of possibilities!

  5. Yep, you got our attention all right! Those are precious and such a neat idea for something different on a door. Is there a way to send you a picture of a wood chickie I’ve made?

  6. I used your idea but flip flopped the bunnies head and feet ever other one. Also glued some easter eggs in kind of a mound on the inside of the wire wreath frame. Thank You for the idea.
