Donning for Easter...

Holiday hats are all the rage in our house, and for Easter there is no exception! As many of you know, Jack is our fashion model for the seasons, and today was picture day. I found myself in all sorts of odd positions trying to snap the perfect photo ~ don't even try to imagine! :) Anyway, I lucked out, and Jack was partially patient with me as I adjusted his hat and collar time and time again. Have a looksie at the photos I snapped below, and ENJOY! I hope everyone has a happy Easter weekend!
Cheers,
~ Johanna

* His sweet little chickie hat is similar to one that I recently designed for a spring bird to wear in my 2011 Bethany Lowe Designs spring line. I decided to make an extra one for you know who!

* His matching collar is one I made years ago for a bunny sculpture that well, never made its way around the neck of that bunny. See why I hang on to all my scraps and extra trims?! You just never know when you might be needing those... ( Poor Jack, right?) In this photo, Jack is wondering when I am going to take all these darn accessories off of him!!

* But all clear this way ~ time to jump!.... hehe!

Easter-Jack
* You have to admit, it's all pretty cute!.... Rest-assured, he is hat & collar free now, and happily looking out the window and cat-chirping at the birds. I think he really does like all the attention though! :)

    Hi Johanna!

    Jack looks so cute in his matching collar and Easter Bonnet! I can't believe he lets you do that! He is a very special fur person!

    Happy Easter!

    Well, Jack still loves me! And like I said in my post, I can tell that he likes the attention. Plus, we're all supposed to show a little humility every once in a while, so they say... Guess that includes Jack.... :)

    Hi Johanna,

    I look forward to the holidays when I can see what Jack is going to be wearing for the occasion. He never disappoints me. I think he needs to be on the Cadbury Egg commercial this time.

    Hope you all have a Happy Easter.

    Thanks all :) Ah, yes, Jack would make a purrrfect Cadbury Egg Jack-o-Rabbit! And on Facebook, a friend suggested he should be on holiday greeting cards.... Hmmm, the wheels are a'spinnin and he doesn't have a clue!....

    Happy Easter to all...
