box of kittens

One of life's (well, my life's) great joys is a warm happy sleeping nest of rabbit kittens. (The domestic, treasured brands of rabbits of course..) I made this in another one of those shadow boxes and used more fur from Eva's lair. It's such a cosy piece. I love those little peaceful faces, in this case especially the brown and white one. Here is a picture of the rabbit box in my parent-in-law's lounge room. I didn't give it to them (don't think they'd like it that much and would have to pretend to!) just wanted to see it in a civilised setting. Couldn't find a civilised setting in my house. Some breathtaking flowers from a Vogue Living magazine:I haven't used twigs or dried flowers in any art yet and it interests me so that's something for the list. It's the start of the school holidays and the older kids are acting strange - half "What are we going to do? Where are we going today? But also full of wild schemes and plans that involve setting up all their toy in the playroom and beginning more long running Barbie sagas.I'll be going to the newsagent today to spend some of the Prime Minister's stimulus package on a pile of magazines. Magazines are good because I can read them while sitting where the kids are so thus spending time with them and listening to them and responding to them (this can get exhausting after days and days) and selfishly enjoying myself at the same time. Kevin said spend it so I'll try to do that locally. Good for the community right?
