Anyway, he is around 7/8 of an inch tall and is holding his blanket (or "Lovey B" which is what I called my little yellow blanket that I couldn't be without).

Bedtime for Bunny
I really love the little animals I see wearing clothes, but I'm so hopeless with sewing (or gluing for that matter) fabric. So I tried something new for me. This bunny's pajamas were made of clay, and I applied some flocking to them to try to make them look a bit fuzzy. Oh how I wish I could have made some real little pajamas for him. :(

Love him so much! He is achingly adorable!
ReplyDeleteAdorable as all you little critters are . I also suck at gluing and sewing clothes . Can I suggest you try piecing the clothes on using an iron and some of that iron basting tape instead . I think it would be a bit easier with such tiny little clothes .
ReplyDeleteOMG....just when I thought they couldn't get any cuter!
ReplyDeleteI agree totally! these have got to be THE cutes things on the planet! Every time you create something new it simply amazes me at your talent!!! The PJs are awesome, and do look fuzzy! can't tell they were created from clay at all. Now, how in the world could you create such a tiny pair of PJs out of material? OMG Kristy this bunny is so cute..I gotta go tell my friend Katt to come n look at him..she LOVES micro minis! xoxo Hugs, Christel
ReplyDeleteWhat a little cutie!!! Absolutly adorable! And you don't have to worry about not sewing his pajamas; it's so perfect the way you made it:-)
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I love his little clay pj's. Your work is amazing. Always brings a smile to my face!
ReplyDeleteCia
Oh he is so cute, making his clothes would be sooo difficult I think. Doll makers seem to cut out the shapes and glue them onto the dolls, then cover the joins with trim, but don't know how that would work with simple outfits. Perhaps fine felt which can be moulded a bit into shape for sleeves and legs, cut out in one piece than glued down the back and covered with tiny buttons. Sounds simple but would it work?@#
ReplyDeleteThe PJs are excellent - I just wanna touch them!!
ReplyDeleteAnd a blanky! - you're pullin' on the heartstrings here . . .
I love his PJ's! i think they look better than what could be made in fabric. He's just adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteI am going to try crepe paper to dress my next tiny doll or what ever... I think it will look OK. These people have real good crepe papers if you ever want to try it.

Who cares if you can't sew ! It really looks like fabric and your baby mouse is so sweet, so cute.
ReplyDeleteAdorable !
He is soooooooooooooo sweeeeeeeeeet! Lovely pajama, is it really made of polymer clay? Would never believe it!!!:)
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone!! And thanks for the tiny clothes making suggestions. I'm such a damn clutz with the tiny pieces of fabrics (including felt), in fact I burned the crap out of my finger just the other day with one of those mini irons trying to make the cowboy hat for the mouse, LOL.
ReplyDeleteCrepe paper Catherine?? I'm going to check out that link - thank you! And I want you to make something soon and post it on your blog so I can see!!!
I'm in LOVE!!!! So sweet!
ReplyDeleteI think your solution to the jamjam problem was perfect. Even the finest of flannel would be way out of scale. It's all about illusion anyway. Dang he is cute!
ReplyDeleteOh, he is so CUTE, but he looks as if he dreamt bad and needs to be cuddled. I hope, he'll find someone soon!
ReplyDeletetrop mignon !
ReplyDeleteIsn`t she adorable...!!!
ReplyDeleteThe PJs are excellent, looks very warm and cosy, and as for the bunny, well, I'm running out of superlatives, so let's just say: Great as usual... ;O) Could it be that this little fellow read the comments of your "Scare me if you dare"-Contest? He looks a little bit scared and in deep need for a hug. Don't be afraid, little guy, things could be worse - go, ask the little sister of the Cowboy and Indian mice...
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend
Birgit
Oooh so lovely and sweet.
ReplyDeletewhat a great idea Kristy- I love his little pj's- they look perfect!
ReplyDeleteOhhh, he's so cute, I love him!
ReplyDeleteThe clay pyjama with flock worked out very well.
Give this little fellow a big hug from me LOL
greetings, Marieke
Esta para adoptarlo, con su pijama y su mantita.
ReplyDeleteAdorable!!!!!
besitos ascension
Me lo llevaria a mi casa,que cosita mas tierna,encantador.
ReplyDeleteBesos - Rosa
I think his jamies are just as cute as he is!! They are in the style of your work which enhances rather than taking the focus from the little fella and they really look like he's comfy in them.
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks guys!!! I guess the jammies look okay considering they aren't real. And I really don't think I could make actual little clothes that would look very good, plus I'd have a fit trying to make them whereas this was much simpler for me- I'm comfortable working with clay.
ReplyDeleteThis doesn't mean I won't keep trying to make tiny clothes, lol. I'm curious to see what Catherine does with crepe paper! ???
Your little creations always make my day brighter!!! :D So cute!
ReplyDeleteahhhhh isn't he soooo sweet, just ready for bed.His pj's look great,you couldn't get them to fit as well if they were fabric,it would look too bulky.I love your little creations they are all so cute,just make me want to say ahhh . love x Julie
ReplyDeleteHe is great Kristy!I also start grinning big time each time I see one of your newest critters.
ReplyDeleteAnd he is going to get a loving home, I am sure:-)
