Bunny Collectors

There is something about a twitchy nose and a pair of floppy ears that melts even the sternest heart. Limoges bunny boxes make sweet gifts for Easter baskets, spring birthdays and baby showers, as well as for the gardener who forgives the rabbits for eating her lettuce. Each little rabbit sits on a hinged box, hand-painted in France, and comes nestled in its own gift box. Unlike the chocolate kind, nobody will bite its ears off.

These bunnies lead busy lives. Look for rabbits shopping, riding a seesaw, sitting on a bench, peeking from a watering can and hiding in a head of lettuce. Some go camping, fishing or to the movies, and one zips along in a carrot car. Easter is well covered with rabbits holding removable eggs, a bunny tucked inside a pink egg and baskets full of eggs and chicks. Pink and blue pacifiers trimmed with rabbits make darling baby gifts. Every whisker and cottontail is painted by hand.

Bunny collectors like to joke that their collections multiply like, well, rabbits. One Easter box turns into a spring tradition, and soon there is a whole meadow on the shelf. A lovely way to begin: give a child one bunny each Easter so they grow up with a collection all their own. Display them on a mossy tray, nestle them into a spring centerpiece or line them along a sunny kitchen windowsill. Hop to it.
