Most of this was from my birthday shopping spree at the antique mall, thanks to Jas and Suzie. ;o)
Bunny planter $3.00, giggling bunnies $1.00, and yellow 'marble-like coloring' bunny $1.

Brown bunny trio, they were $1 each, so of course I had to buy the whole set. ;p)

Bronze rabbit bookends, from Pier 1 not the antique mall...LOVE these! I had seen them several times in decor settings online and wanted them. But not if shipping involved, they are super heavy! (great weapons if a burglar should break in. LOL)

Rose plate and vintage crackled bunny planter. I don't normally buy rose plates for myself, but because of Luvs, I'm always looking at them. She has a wonderful collection of them and they are so pretty. This one told me I had to buy it, LOL. It was made by Bradford in 1994. The old bunny planter is so sweet I think. And I like crackled bunnies a lot.

Dedham bunnies.....you've seen my sitting up bunny and the candleholders before. I think the Dedham bunnies are really neat, and they are crackled too. But they are also on the pricey side (for me anyway). I watch for bargains on eBay and once in a blue (purple) moon find one as you can see. My friend spotted the tiny one with the lettuce and didn't have a clue what it was, and I shocked her with a 'yelp' of glee. This was $6, it is usually online for $20-$25! Woooo Hoooo, SCORE!!

Rabbit Lamp....funny story with this one. I've often seen rabbit lamps in magazine vignettes and online, but didn't want to pay the prices asked. The less expensive ones were for nurseries or little girl rooms, and ones more like this type ranged up to $100. So I was thinking, with all my gazillion rabbits, I could just MAKE MY OWN. Yeah!
So for a LONG time I've watched for a lamp in GW or the antique mall. Needed one with the 'right' kind of base to attach a large figurine. No luck, for a year now. While looking at an online lamp I liked, I noted how the base was done and decided I could make that myself out of wood....IF I could find the RIGHT dang lamp type I wanted.
When we got to the mall, I told my friend I was on a Lamp Mission! Well halfway thru, she suddenly says "How about this rabbit lamp instead?" WHAT???? Oh yeah, definitely! $15 and that baby came home with me! Its perfect on the little chest in my sage green 'sitting room' (Dad's room). Bless my friend's lil pair of eyes, I would have missed BOTH the lamp and the Dedham bunny for sure. (you'd have to see that mall to understand how easy it is to miss stuff. Right, Luvs? Over 500 dealers and over 2 hrs of walking thru it.) Sensory overload, LOL.

Vintage lamp table that I didn't need. Saw, wanted, bought anyway. If you look close, you can see four little cut-outs (like handles). The sides all fold, makiing it become smaller and square instead of round.

Little Fairy with ducklings and kitty. Showing this for no reason other than it always makes me smile. Its not new. I found the little girl fairy quite some time ago at GW, and another time found the lovely little piece with the 5 ducklings. Again....case of saw, wanted, got. Kitty was at Dollar Tree one time. All were in my garage cabinet with no "home" for many months. One day while looking at them as I was going thru the cabinet, it struck me that the little fairy was shushing the ducklings so the kitty could sleep. Voila!! A sweet vignette that makes me happy. I put it on a mirror base and its also in the sage sitting room.
