Our story began with one little bunny…

 

I am a mother of five, and when I was pregnant with my first baby, my sister brought him a handmade bunny from South Africa. From the moment he held it, he was completely attached. As our family grew, each of my children received one of their own and formed the same deep bond. These little bunnies quickly became part of our daily rhythms: tucked into car seats, clutched at bedtime, carried through airports, and loved through every stage of childhood. They’ve wiped tears, soothed sickness, kissed countless boo-boos, and even ridden in backpacks through long school days… always there when a little comfort was needed most.

They’ve been woven into our family for years, and I began to realize how special they truly were. So I reached out to the women in South Africa who lovingly make them and asked if they would be open to partnering with me to share them with families here. Their excitement matched mine, and together we began bringing these special pieces to the U.S.

Each bunny is so soft, simple, and handmade for tiny hands—easy to carry, easy to wash, and easy to love. They’ll be there for bedtime tears, brave first days, and quiet reassurance.

Sharing these bunnies with other families feels like sharing a little piece of our own story, and it is such an honor for me to watch other children fall in love with them too.

 

With love,
