The Latest News

No, you’re not seeing things. Harry Buns Productions now has two creative divisions under its umbrella. Since this is already an e-commerce website, there was no need to expend extra work on a second site. The site domain name hasn’t changed. It just had its fifth anniversary, after all. Any store products associated with Graeson Craft Works will be identified with the logo on item images. This new endeavor is a joint venture with my husband, Karl. The current associated inventory is a small sample of handmade and computer aided products created in our house. Literally.

We invite you to check frequently if you are seeking a unique gift, or follow me on social media. Many of the items made by me might be one-of-kind, may not be available very frequently, or will only have one product inventoried at a time. I don’t make my resin projects in large production runs, so it’s rare any two will be alike. 3D printing and laser engraving are also available. CNC wood carving will come online soon. Items that offer multiple options or customiztion will have drop-down menus. Further instructions and questions can be sent through the product inquiry form at the bottom of the page. It’s always a good idea to order customized gifts well ahead of time.

We are currently offering local pickup for physical merchandise. It will be announced here when shipping becomes available.

Please note: It is highly recommended you read the Privacy, Terms and Services and Refunds and Returns pages before doing anything on this site.

Welcome to the internet home of a former crazy bunny lady. My rabbits played a big role in my return to novel writing in 2019, and served as very special companions, beginning with Mr. Harry Buns, the namesake of my production company. Alas, none of them are with me any longer, but they are still featured on the "About Me" page, if you're interested in learning more about them. Do you want to become even better acquainted with me? This is a multipage site which can be navigated from the menu at the top of this page. Now that you're here, I invite you to stay and visit for a while.
