Last week was my lucky week!!

I was one of the lucky winners from the Folkart and Primitive Artist Team giveaway.  
Click HERE to see the team blog.  
I won 5 wonderful creations!!  
I will be featuring them each by the order I received them.  
I won this FABULOUS bunny with his carrot from Carol of Buttermilk Creek Farm. 
 He is exquisite!
She had this little sweetie bundled up nicely in this fun tissue paper with such a sweet card.
This is how Carol described him to me: 
 He is a very sweet little bunny made of aged muslin and he brings with him his favorite carrot made of polymer clay and sweet annie. He sits upon a cushion made from an antique wool army blanket that is filled with crushed walnut shells to help keep your pins and needles sharp. There is also a Civil War era "bone" button attached with straight pins for embellishment.
Once he came and I explained to my son about the Civil war bone button and the military blanket....next thing I know he has decided it is his-NOT!!
As we all know photos just do not do the creations justice and this one is no exception...just to fabulous!!
I cannot Thank Carol enough for this wonderful creation!!
THANK YOU!!
Her talent is beyond compare.
