Gram’s Guinness beer can hat

There isn't a pattern on this post, but if you search Google you'll find some. This was made by trial and error for my small head. This project took a lot of time, and was fiddly with the bulk of the cans once they were joined, so I don't think I would make it again.…

Easter in the bunny hutch

Just some photos of teaware and bunnies that came out today. Tomorrow already feels like a tea and cake day. Lefton Irish Lace teapot @ 1990s among some unmarked pieces. Grace's Teaware teapot + egg cups, Pottery Barn bunny plates, unmarked vintage handled s&p bunnies. I always try to find the whole service. It's fun…
