Bradley Home Repair
WHERE RABBIT DAD MEETS HANDYMAN
As a rabbit parent for over ten years, I know it can be challenging to keep your little hopper engaged, entertained and happy in the way we all want. Therefore, I’ve put my skills as a handyman to use building toys, furniture and dwellings to accomplish just that. I started making these creations for my own rabbits and they liked them so much I decided to make them available to everyone!
About the products: Bradley Custom Crafts is committed to making safe and durable wooden toys to enhance the lives of rabbits. All products are made of untreated pine or poplar, non-toxic wood glue and steel screws, nails and finish staples. They are over engineered to be very durable and will last for many years with regular use.
Custom Rabbitats: I can also design and install custom made rabbit habitat. These are places where the bunny boxes, toys and hay can be kept separate from the main living space and where the bunny cannot get to anything dangerous. A rabbitat can be quite elaborate, mine takes up the second floor of our cape cod, or as simple as some linoleum flooring for easy cleanup. If you are interested, contact Bradley Home Repair and Custom Crafts LLC at:
BradleyHRCC@gmail.com or BradleyHRCC.com.

Brown Dog Bandanas
Sewing bandanas is my way of raising funds for a dog rescue I had adopted from. I learned to sew and make bandanas that slipped over the collar. I had to start a business to pay off my fabric debts after just a few short weeks. That was the beginning of Brown Dog Bandanas. My business has expanded to include items for many different types of pets. Fleece snuggle bags and cage hammocks are used by (so far) , rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, hedgehogs, ferrets, chinchillas and hamsters. Fabric flowers and bow ties are also a popular item used by many. I look forward to continuing to create accessories for all pets.

BUNNYZINE

What is Bunnyzine?
Bunnyzine is a monthly digital (PDF) magazine that focuses on positive, bunny-related things. The main feature for each issue is on a particular bunny (or bunnies). After that, it will be a mixture of various events, stories, products, and community-fueled features. Bunnyzine is a monthly, community-inspired, digital bunny magazine. We publish on the first day of each month and each issue has a featured rabbit and a featured rabbit organization. How much is it? It’s free. But we do offer a pay-what-you-want feature which lets you choose how much you want to pay for the issue. This is primarily used as a fundraiser for a rabbit rescue, shelter, or sanctuary. Running one of these rabbit-helping organizations is already a tough job in itself and adding the task of fundraising on top of the work makes it difficult. Bunnyzine hopes to give these places a little bit of breathing room by helping them financially. What will the rescue use the money on? Whatever they want. We hope they will use it directly on the bunnies but ultimately it is up to them what they want. Pay electricity bills, food, medical expenses, pens, toys, or keep it in the bank for a rainy day. There are no restrictions placed by Bunnyzine as to how they use the money. |

sew ruth: quilts for causes
My business is about changing the world, one quilt at a time. I create and sell handmade quilts and I donate the proceeds (after costs) to various worthy causes.
How SEW RUTH Came About
I ventured down this new path about two years ago when a friend helped to create a shelter for abused and neglected domestic bunnies, the Ohio House Rabbit Rescue (www.ohiohouserabbitrescue.org). Eager to support my friend and save helpless bunnies, I starting making bunny-themed quilts that OHRR could sell, auction, or raffle off to raise funds for the shelter. I made about a dozen "Bun Fun" quilts, and the enthusiastic response that I received inspired me to think beyond bunnies to other worthy causes needing funds. I realized that this was the purpose I had been seeking -- that I could simultaneously pursue my two passions of making quilts AND working to change the world.
Thus, my new venture, SEW RUTH: Quilts for Causes, was born. In this unique marriage of creativity and philanthropy, I continue to make original, handcrafted keepsakes for others, but now they are sold and the profits are donated to causes that protect and nurture people and the planet.
Hop on by her webpage and check out the FABULOUS Bunny-Themed Quilts!!!!
