Year of the Rabbit Gifts
Okay, so I'm a little slow on the uptake on this one, but I just realized that it's the year of the rabbit which means you could buy really cool rabbit stuff for any baby born before January 23, 2012.
Of course I hit Etsy with a vengeance. A VENGEANCE, I tell you!
I found some stuff for baby, for keepsakes, for Mom and of course for the dog and freaky idiots like me.
Check it out:
Peek a Boo Print $17 So pretty and not too baby'ish.
Star Gazing Art Print $25 I'm such a sucker for watercolours.
Hip Hop Happy Bunny Necklace $33 This is a nice gift for mom. You know, along with a nanny and a diamond.
Rabbit Piggy Bank $17.96 I like that this is clean and simple and wouldn't look goofy in your room as you grow up.
Bunny Ring $40 Could symbolize Year-of-the-Rabbit or crazy Alice-in-Wonderland-acid-trip, and for that, I love it.
Paper Cut $35 This is like a little block that you can mount on the wall or put on a shelf. Kewl.
The Cutest Bunny $32 Every kid needs an awesome bunny, dammit.
Lucky Rabbit Postcards (set of 5) $8 Is it the Spanish? Is it the woodcut carrot motif? I don't know, but to this I say, "si".
Sock Bunny - Mopsy $20 You better buy two of these because I can see you having to drive 2 hours to pick this thing up from where it was accidentally left behind and your kid won't sleep without it.
Limited Edition Giclee Drawing $15 Sweet, yummy and full of baby bunny goodness.
Sterling Silver Bunny Necklace $23 Nice, simple and classy. (You know, like me and white linen)
Hop Along Print $16 Git along little bunny. Technically I think this is a jackrabbit but I dare you not to love it.
Bunny Baby Hat $30 Hat. Baby. Meeehmeeeeehhh. Can't. take. it.
Mr. O'Malley the Rabbit Felted Wool Figure $28 Why hello Mr. O'Malley. Can I interest you in joining me for a Guinness?
Handmade Bunny Jar $18 Awesome for little cotton balls, trinkets or jelly beans – the Po Po would never think to look in there.
Upcycled Tweed Baby Hare – Channing $29 I love Channing. This is similar to how I look when I watch True Blood.
Dog Hat $16 Come. On. These hats are made to order. I think I would adopt animals just so they could wear these hats.
Pat the Bunny $10 Of course, this isn't from Etsy but it is an awesome bunny book if you wanted a useful bunny gift.
I Am a Bunny $6 Possibly the best children's book ever written. I love this book. I give it to every person I know that is having a baby. Seriously, get this book.

So there you have it. Cool stuff, eh?
Now I'm off to find dragon gifts for next year.

I love the book "I am a Bunny". My nephew who is now 19 had this book, and he bought a new copy for my son for his first birthday last year. Timeless read. ;)
Must. Have. Tiny. Mr. O'Malley! Never in my life have I seen something that adorable.
I would also totally wear the tiny sterling silver bunny necklace. I wish my kid was born in the year of the rabbit. Too freaking cute.
So sweet!! I love the jewlery and baby hat. Etsy is great! How do you know what each year represents? Thanks for the awesome post!
Funny comment on the hip hop happy necklace. Except in my case, I'd replace "diamond" with "full-time maid." Yeah, that's good.
I would like to thank you for posting so beautiful pictures. 'Bunny Baby Hat' picture is just awesome and so cute :) Loved this very much.
It is said that rabbits are born under a lucky sign. They are excellent judges of temperament and are very difficult to mislead as well. Rabbits are introverts and like to interact and work together in a group.
Cool! We are having a boy in October. I'm half Chinese so we had our family and friends paint little rabbit canvases to put in the baby's room: http://www.nesteaglerock.com/2011/09/tbd-art-project.html
I could recite Peter Rabbit by heart, and as I read the stories to my own children, I think they could also remember- "Once upon a time there were four little rabbits, and their names were Flopsy, Mopsy, Cotton-tail and Peter" These are the famous opening lines of the Tale Of Peter Rabbit. I was given this book as a Christening gift, and I also received a Peter Rabbit mug as a Christening gift. I still have the mug and book all these years later. My own children were also given Peter Rabbit Christening gifts, which have also survived until now. These included a money box and a Christening set of mug, bowl and plate. All the Peter Rabbit china gifts were made by Wedgwood, and were top quality and lasted really well in top condition.
