Snowflake Rabbits

 
Here are five little snowflake rabbits in various stages of drying for their first firing.  Most are for gifts, but one or two will go in my Etsy shop.  The basic shape of an animal head on a cone-shaped robe has done well for me.  There are so many possible variations, and they're always fun to make.
 
Unlike the way I finish most of my figurines, I haven't put a bottom on these.  There a hole down through the top of the heads, and my plan it to put a hanger on the up side of the hole, but continue the wire down through to hang a large (20mm) Swarovski crystal snowflake through the bottom.  I also have tiny Swarovski crystal fat-back snowflakes and will glue 6 or 7 towards the top of each robe.
