My ears are gravitationally challenged.
Still though, not bad for the first of what I hope is a series of bike helmet hats inspired by White from Tekkonkinkreet. This one will debut at the Egg Hunt alley cat next sunday just gotta get the ears to stand tall by then. Lucky me, I can't sleep. Instead of working towards two deadlines I have Monday this bunny hat is the witching hour's top priority. The ears themselves are sturdy as hell...perhaps too sturdy...they're reinforced with cardboard and wire, which makes 'em kinda heavy. I think I'm going to run wire down out of the ears and secure it into the base of the hat.
If you got a better idea, suggestions are most welcome.

Amazing. I'm trying to think about the physics of ears, and where you could secure them. How do rabbits get their ears to stay up?
pop some rivets in 'em. Hell, you could sink the whole shebang in an old salad bowl filled with fibreglass resin and add some extra protection. Then you might need to add some flanges to support your head, then maybe add a shoulder pad/neck brace to take the load onto your torso...
Or take the wire and cardboard out and use an old pie plate as bunny cartilage.
Super cute!!
thx kimmy. you should come to the race!
I would, but I work until 2:30. :(
