Easter bunnies and more beauty

I have been sitting here, lazily trawling the net, trying to find beautiful things to look at. I returned to a favourite today, Frederique Morrel. She uses vintage needlework to cover polyurethane sculptures and they are gobsmacking! A recent exhibition in Brussels titled "Horny Bunnies"  includes some very well endowed and naughty bunnies.(I have included a less offensive photo below)

Oh I could go on and on! There must nary be a tapestry left in Europe. Where does she get them from? Or is she getting them made up in Bali?

I remember that a few years ago that FM used to do a home wares range, and I wondered at that stage how she could spare the tapestries (as they are finite) and as her artworks were priced higher. It now looks as if she doesn't sell these little objects any more, the shop has disappeared, but I found some old pics for inspiration.

Methinks I will make me a pouf, to rest my lazy feet upon. (This is after I finished my self taught cake decorating course)

  1. Very unusual items - hadn't seen those before. As you say, they must use up a lot of tapestry!
