I am using the rest of the Peaches & Creme cotton yarn that I used when making the Spring Morning Mini Bag. You will need a few other materials in order to complete this project and we will get to those shortly. Not to worry I am sure you have everything on hand.

My little Diva has a lot of love for all animals and she thinks bunnies are the cutest things besides her puppies. I couldn’t help but make her the Hippity Hoppity Mini Bag. Enjoy!

Oops I did it again (yep that song is stuck in my head) LOL I made another mini bag! The Hippity Hoppity Mini Bag is on it’s way to my little Diva (aka my niece).

In some of my other mini bag posts I have shared with you our love for bags. After chatting with her these past few weeks I decided she needed a bunny bag. Something different and unique. I hope she loves it as much as I loved making it. I know Easter is almost here but I may just have to whip up a few more before Spring is over.

While working on this project I decided I would share it with you. Do you like making little bags and/or purses for your little ones?

I had a blast making her the Hippity Hoppity Mini Bag. I am 100% positive I will be making her more bunny bags along with other related items. Just to be clear I am in hot water with my nephew. LOL Looks like some boy themed projects will be coming soon.
