Easter Peeps- Sunday March 13th

Easter has always been my favorite time for crafting, as I love bunnies. While some folks collect chickens, frogs, cats, dogs and other things, in my house bunnies rule...well really Tanner and Squeaks rule...our two spoiled cats... but they are another story.

Well, I have been crafting for over 30 years now, and I still love creating bunnies, so I decided to make some Bunny Peeps for the store. You know, those marshmallow treats that go right to your hips.


Well, yesterday one of our regular customers Jeff wanted to know when I had made them and if they were still fresh?? I started laughing and told him that they were made out of fabric...which then made him laugh. Since I had wrapped them in cello bags, he thought they were real. I just love our customers!!!   


After painting them, I had sprinkled them with German Glass Glitter, which made them look like they had been sugar coated...these pictures do not give them justice. They sparkle and look good enough to eat. Just ask Jeff the next time you see him in our store!!!

For those of you that are on Facebook, Bob added more pictures of our store. Visit Back Porch Antiques. Make sure you like us and you will be one of the first to see our updates.

Until next time...don't eat too many EASTER PEEPS.
