Snow Bunnies - Yuki Usagi

My charm design for one of my favorite things, the Japanese snow bunnies, called "Yuki Usagi." When it snows in Japan people will sometimes make these little snow bunnies. Their bodies are snow, their ears are bamboo leaves and their eyes are nandina fruit. I believe the first time I saw one of them was in the gamecube game "tales of symphonia" long ago! I thought it was the cutest thing and they were one of the first charms I ever made: [link] but my style and design has changed (improved hopefully? ) over time. Here is a normal sized one and an itty bitty one, I love making them!

If you want a tutorial on how to make these be sure to vote for it in my fake-poll journal: [link]

Also be sure to keep an eye on my etsy store, some of these are 'bound' to 'hop' up: [link] (okay no more bad puns)
