A professional graphic designer who uses her background in art history and restoration to create everyday objects you can enjoy in your home or as wearable art. It's a joy to bring the best art and design of ages past into everyday life, plus invitations and DIY party projects. If you don't already share my love for artists and illustrators such as Alphonse Mucha, Edmund Dulac, Beatrix Potter, Carl Larsson and John Tenniel, perhaps you'll discover a new enthusiasm.

Beatrix Potter Rabbit Custom Christmas Ornament

The Little Bunny Drinking Tea by Beatrix Potter

A darling custom Beatrix Potter ornament to commemorate a child's special Christmas. To personalize, simply type in the child's name and the correct year (first Chrismas, second Christmas, etc.) using the "personalize it" feature. Use the "customize it" feature to change the typeface, font color, etc., if you wish.

Description: A proper little girl rabbit with a pink ribbon tied around her neck in a pretty bow daintily sips her tea from a china teacup. On the tile floor in front of her is the tea set, including teapot, sugar bowl, sugar tongs, milk pitcher and more teacups, tea spoons resting on the saucers. Perhaps there is to be a tea party.

Please see my gallery's Beatrix Potter Collection for matching items.

About the original work of art:
Artist:Beatrix Potter
Title: The Little Bunny Drinking Tea
Date: Probably 1890s.
Medium and substrate: Ink and watercolor on paper.

While this painting never appeared in any of Beatrix Potter's books, it is one of her most delightful watercolors and highly finished.
