Update on the Mr. Bunny

I stained the bunny tonight with Kemiko concrete acid stain that I had left over from doing the floors in my house. I think it came out okay, but I'm going to let it dry and check it in the morning. If it looks decent, I'll have another picture of it.

My new bunny!

Here's the newest member of my family. More like, yard, actually. I had one of those urges today to go shopping. That's not always a good thing for me, but I wanted to SHOP! So, I'm pretty broke so what do I do? Go to my coin vase - dig out a few bucks and go to thrift stores and garage sales. I found this guy at the first place I stopped. He's from a house less than a mile from me. I'm not sure how he will look when I'm done with him, but since he's made of concrete/cement, I'm going to try to acid stain him with left over acid stain. I'm, of course, going to try the stain on the bottom of him to start, but then if it works, I'll do it all over him. I can't wait to see if it works. And, yes, this was the only purchase made today. Someone slowed my shopping progress today, which was probably a good thing.

I'm wanting to put him on my porch for now, but then I think I'll put him in my back yard with Pedro and the gnome (a statue one, not the creepy one in Argentina! ;).
