3 Bunnies & Giant Carrots...

3 little bunnies are the best of friends in the world! They are 

Baby Grey Bunny, the dare devil.

Baby Brown Bunny. Being the youngest, he is the most shy guy among all.

& Baby Beige Bunny, the happy-go-lucky bunny

They almost do everything together. 

Like any best friends, they will also fight, cry & laugh together...

One day, while they are happily chatting away...

Suddenly, baby Grey Bunny smelled something nice. Being the most adventous 1, he went & explored!

Look at what he found!

It's a giant carrot! It's almost as big as baby Grey Bunny!

Happy with what he found, he brought his friends to the giant carrot...

'What are we supposed to do with this giant carrot?' Asked baby Grey Bunny.

'Should we share? But how?' Asked baby Beige Bunny.

While baby Grey Bunny & Baby Beige Bunny are discussing on how they can share the giant carrot among the 3 of them, baby Brown Bunny shys away...

While playing on his own, he found this!

'Wow! Another giant carrot!' He said. 'Maybe there's more!'

He ran back to his friends & asked them to join him...

'Come with me...I found another giant carrot! Maybe there's more!' Said baby brown Bunny.

So all 3 of them go together...

'Look! This is what I found here!' Said baby Brown Bunny...

'Hm...' Said baby Beige Bunny...

'Not fair! Both of you found a giant carrot but me!' Cried baby Beige Bunny.

'Maybe you will also find 1 here!' Said baby Grey Bunny. 'Let's try & dig up!'

They dig & they dig & finally...

'Look what I found!' Baby Beige Bunny shouted! 'I'm a very lucky bunny!' 

At last, all 3 friends enjoyed the giant carrots that they found happily together...

ps: the design of this bunny is not originated from me. I found the design from the internet, but can't remember which site it is...:( I made some changes though, to suit to my liking...:D

Friendship Kokeshi Dolls - story continues...

After completing the Big eyes Friendship Kokeshi Dolls range, I made 1 set of small eyes Kokeshi Dolls, using the prototype I made when I experimented the dolls.

2 reasons: my mom said small eyes resemble the real Japanese (she said Japanese don't have big eyes) & the other is because it is for my girl's playset. I don't want her to bite the eyes off the doll's head! LOL

Comparing to the original big eyes dolls, this range is also cute in its way. They look shy...but of course, it doesn't resemble the characteristic of the 4 friends. The only one that is close enough is Alice...the rest definitely is not shy...LOL 

My impression of Japanese girls is that they are shy & kawaii, especially when they are in their traditional costumes.

So, what do you think? Do you prefer the big eyes range or small eyes range? :D

To make it easier for comparison, here's the individual dolls line up:
