I found a cute post by Ashley at Lil Blue Boo of taking a pair of knee socks and turning them into cute bunnies! Of course I pinned it on Pintrest and the next day ran out and picked up 10 pairs of knee socks from Target, 'cause that's where Ashley got her's from.
Each pair of knee socks normally goes for $2.50 but they had a sale going on and I ended up saving 50 cents per sock!! I already had batting on hand for my cloth dolls that I make and I already have needles and thread and a sewing machine so I figure each bunny cost me about $3.50 each to make - mind you there is almost a full sock left over so I am thinking of turning the left over socks into mini bunnies so each bunny could potentially be less.
How cute are these bunnies. I am going to hand make the button eyes out of paperclay and I plan to embroider faces on them too...I am in love!!
Each of my kids will get one as will some nieces and nephews for easter. Ruth was bummed that she couldn't have one because I told her they were for sale in my shop...won't she be excited to find a cute bunny waiting for her on easter instead of seeing it sold. She even told me if she got one she would love it forever and call it Mr. Bunn Bunn.

Love your little sock bunnies! Hugs and blessings, Cindy
