Little Bunny Foo Foo in Felt

Are any of you familiar with the song/childhood tale of Little Bunny Foo Foo?  It's a little dark, a little funny, and it involves cute animals, so it's no wonder that I like this story! I have to say thank you to my best friend, Keyanna, for introducing me to Little Bunny Foo Foo in high school! Here is the full song for those of you who don't know about it:

Little Bunny Foo Foo hopping through the forest, scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head!
Down came the forest fairy and she said, "Little Bunny Foo Foo, I don't want to see you scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head! I will give you three more chances or I will turn you into a Goon!"

Little Bunny Foo Foo hopping through the forest, scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head!
Down came the forest fairy and she said, "Little Bunny Foo Foo, I don't want to see you scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head! I will give you two more chances or I will turn you into a Goon!"

Down came the forest fairy and she said, "Little Bunny Foo Foo, I don't want to see you scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head! I will give you one more chance or I will turn you into a Goon!"

Down came the forest fairy and she said, "Little Bunny Foo Foo, I don't want to see you scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head! I gave you three chances and you didn't behave! Now you're a Goon!" Poof!

And the moral of the story is: Hare today, Goon tomorrow.

I thought this scene would be perfect to recreate in felt, so here it is!

Below are more images shot from different angles.



I hope you enjoyed the images as much as I enjoyed making this piece! I especially enjoyed making Little Bunny Foo Foo's outfit. I made him a little lavender jacket and light green scarf with a button.  As I always say, "It's all in the details." :-)
