Default BOC bunnies

Happy Birthday Hannah, have a great time in London. I'll make some for you for BOC too, but my cats stink, so I'll do some bunnies........
Here's the first two and I put six more in the kiln

Hannah,
I hope you had a great birthday. I loved being 17 and I hope you do, too. I am going to try to meet your challenge. I am pretty new at this which means I am also pretty slow! However, I've been saving some beads for BOC for a while, so I might be able to come up with 17! I know I don't have any pink cats, but I know I have a cat or two in my BOC bowl. I made a pink bead today with you in mind. Hopefully, it will be a pretty bead when I open the kiln tomorrow! I think it is wonderful that you get to go to London! I'll post my picture here when I get 17 beads and will be looking forward to my postcard!
Vicki

Have a wonderful birthday!!!! The temperatures here are too hit to torch, but as soon as they drop, I will make a bunch of BOC beads to send in.

What a terrific challenge Hannah! You're so thoughtful to think of other BOC reciepients! I wish you a fantastic birthday and know that you'll have a blast in London and seeing some of the Olympic events! (London is a fun place to visit, even if the Olympics aren't going on!) I'll work on making some beads, and altho I don't really do well with posting pics, I'll get some made and sent.
Big birthday hugs,

I don't have any pink glass so I did them in bright colors. There is a dolphin, a sequoia, aliens, cat heads, penguin, some toothy grins, a Christmas turtle and a couple others. I hope you like them

Hannah - got both the note and the postcard! Thanks so much! Sounds like you had to visit a hospital while you were there? Hope all is well, now.
