White Wednesday: Kitty Bank & Bunny Nodder

It's not uncommon at all for us to keep holiday pieces out all year, like the Victorian bunny nodder above. He makes his way around the house, mixing with other favorite items, but never finds his way into the closet to be put away. Currently, he's hanging out with a still bank and a Victorian yardlong of flowers and music. The kitty bank has been a favorite of mine since childhood.

Here's a close up. I love the little ribbon around his neck.


And zooming in on the yardlong. White daisies like these are blooming happily in my garden right now.

    That sweet bunny should definitely be out all year round, not just at Easter! And I love your kitty bank too. They both look so lovely in front of that yardlong!
    Happy White Wednesday!

    I am SO happy to find others who leave some decorations out all year long too! Why box them ALL away when you can enjoy them all year round?

    Well, my Christmas compadres, if you're looking for a little Christmas in June, stop on by and visit my newly created Santa riding a horse!

    How sweet. Don't worry you are not the only one to leave certain holiday trinkets about on the off season.

    The bunny reminds me of a dog bobble head my great grandmother had and I used to play with it whenever we visited her home.
