Love the color of eyes on the sweet bunny.Hope you find the color of paint to match. (my husband once refused to push a shopping cart because I had a big pink bear in it)
I have lost out on some really nice things I have seen shopping because I didn't just buy them and then when I returned they were gone. Those are the ones you remember.:(
Have a lovely weekend:)

The bunny is very, very cute, and his eyes are very pretty. I can see why you would be looking to do a match up of his eyes to find the perfect blue. Sorry about not getting the bed. It's tough to think of the things you passed up and wish you would have gotten. I hope the paint search goes well.

Nothing wrong with matching bunny eyes to paint! I love all your beds - they are gorgeous.

I know what you mean about humming & hahing over something & then it's too late because it's gone - very disappointing.

*Giggle* I had to laugh at your husband not wanting to go with you to get the paint matched to your bunny's eyes!!!
Cute cute bunny.

Your bunny is so cute and the eyes are a beautiful blue. Can't wait to see the finished bed. It will be lovely. xoxo

How funny your husband wouldn't go get the paint to match the bunny's eyes! Silly fellow! Men are always worried about keeping up appearances! ;)

KARA said...

LOL, poor Tom, thats so funny.
I once took in a hair dye colour to match paint too, so I totally understand.
I also understand your loss.(of the bed LOL)

Love the colour of the bunny's eyes too. I once went into the local DIY store with a dusty lilac coloured pansy in my hand to colour match for our front door. They never batted an eyelid and it was a perfect match, but my husband was squirming on the spot!

Rosemary said...

I love that color. You don't know how many times I wish I had bought something, then went back and it was gone. I think I have finally learned my lesson.
My husband now always reminds me to buy it when I see it.
Have a great weekend.

Oh the rabbit is so sweet. Now when you see something you covert and can afford you should buy. But never regret as you will find something else special.

I love the color, so perfect. Little bunny is sure cute too!

Genevieve Olsen said...

I was in a bit of shock until I read your 2nd post down. I thought you were going to paint the pink bed that you longed and waited for the blue ! I was a little confused. I am now caught up and on the right page whew!OOOOH That will be lovely.I have been fond of that color for a few months now! I love your pine bed and that you are going to paint the floors! You will have to keep us updated when you are done! I hope that you
are having a nice weekend!

What a cute bunny...and his eyes are stunning!! I would go into the paint shop with you and your bunny - it wouldn't worry me at all!!

Yes, I too have learnt from experience that if you see something you LOVE in an op-shop or at a market, you should buy it on the spot...think about it too long and you could miss out!

Thanks so much for visiting my new blog ~ it was lovely to meet you!
Catch up with you again soon.
Kathy :)

Well I had a little time last night, which is unusual and I read your blog right through, it did not disappoint, which I knew it would not. I think I LOVE everything in your house. As for the eyes, well we all get our inspiration from different places...
Some more odd than others mind;-)

Like you, I've had times of regretting not buying something I really wanted. It's a real problem when you're shoppping at a wonderful place like A.; easy to be overwhelmed by all the choices. Hope you find the colour that matches those astonishing eyes! xo

cd&m said...

We wondered about the toys, that rabbit has the most amazing blue eyes.

Joanna said...

Your blue eye Bunny and his eyes are lovely. I like the pink of his noise two.

ShabbyInTheCity said...

I totally understand your love of this bunny!! And his eye color which I would say is AZURE :) One time I actually went to ebay and did a search on azure...you won't believe all of the gorgeous things that came up!

cece marie said...

I relate to your paint matching whoes!
My dear Hubby waited in the car when I got the paint for our guest bath. I matched it to my satin wedding night slippers. What can I say, the feather pom poms are just the perfect shade of champagne blush! heehee ;)
Being a girl really is delightful, isn't it!
Oh, and have you heard of the website jmurphybears.com? Handmade, mohair teddies and friends. I do hope you like them. I think you will.
Au revoir! Cece

Becky said...

Love that blue...it reminds me of Robin's Egg blue. I so can relate to the hub story. When will they learn? Afterall, us gals are only making serious attempts to surround them with beauty! Although, mine would rather hang out in the messy garage surrounded by his tools and motorcycles. ha. Come visit me sometime at http://sweetcottagedreams.blogspot.com Happy Day! Becky

Lallee said...

Oh, that is a beautiful shade of blue. It's going to be so fun to see your bed painted in that color. I know just what you mean about something being sold that you wish you had bought. That happened with me and an antique chest of drawers. Not only did someone else buy it, but it sat in the store for 6 MONTHS with a sold tag on it while the lady's house was being built. It taunted me every time I went back in that store! I never did find one I liked as much as that one piece.

I happen to love the bunny! Beautiful blue as well! cherry

cammyk said...
