Who knew that our favorite marshmallowy bunny wears so many Easter hats! As I began to research for "Peep Crafts"for my kids, I got completely sidetracked by the discovery of the Peep art phenomenon. Who knew! I was instantly addicted and spent an hour or so "down the rabbit hole", as it were. I present you with some of my coolest finds from the tiny, cute Peep community: music, art and fashion.

Best Bunnies: Our Top 10 Rabbits

Easter is soon, and that means a visit from everyone's favorite candy-schleppin' rabbit. The Easter Bunny is awesome, don't get us wrong, but there are a few other rabbits we think deserve a little recognition. Here are, in no particular order,

TOP 10 BEST BUNNIES EVER

1. The Velveteen Rabbit.
Probably the most classic rabbit. To know him is to love him, and we do.

 

2. Harvey

Sure, he was a 6 foot tall invisible bunny, but this is likely the most iconic rabbit in all of live action cinema.

 

3. Miffy

This cute Dutch bunny's original name is "Nijntje" - a shortened form of the Dutch konijntje, which means "little rabbit". And she's a DJ! 

 

4. The Runaway Bunny
Shoutout to the bunny love between this baby bun and his mama! 

5. Ralphie (in bunny costume)

Total runner up for iconic rabbit-in-film, this memorable outfit from A Christmas Story is both sad, embarassing, and totally awesome at the same time. Second runner up goes to creepy bunny from Donnie Darko.

6. Thumper
Best bunny sidekick! The kind of bunny we would want as a pet, if we could keep talking bunnies as pets.

 

7. My Melody

For those times when you're in a Hello Kitty kind of mood, My Melody is there for you!

8. Peter Rabbit

Eternally grateful to the talented Beatrix Potter for giving us the gift of Peter Rabbit and all his awesome garden-dwelling creature friends.

 9. Rabbit

What would Pooh do without this guy? What would we do without Pooh? Luckily, we'll never have to find out. 

10. Meet Bunny Pigi. You can find him in all his poofy, puffy, fluffy wonder on Instagram @bunnypigi. Seriously can't get enough of this little Angora dude. Check out his feed, you'll thank us. Unless you hate cute things, in which case, what are you doing looking at a top ten list of bunnies?!
