What to do with all that hair?!

We're in the middle of shedding season, and the human spends a lot of time brushing us.  Our silly human hates to waste things- she even saves the hair that she brushes from us!  My hair is short and silky, and the human puts it outside for the birds to put in their nests.  Logan's hair is long and fuzzy, just like wool, and the human saves it for wool felting (the human still hasn't actually felted Logan's hair yet, but we'll be sure to post pics of her crazy creations when she's feeling crafty).

Here's our list of uses for bunny hair from shedding season:
1. Give the hair to the birds!  Many birds use hair in their nests.
2. Make yarn! (this one is for the long-haired bunnies, like angoras)
3. Try wool needle felting!  (the human says she's going to do this with our fur to make a picture of us.  we think that's kind of weird, but she thinks it's going to be a really cute memento!)

Anyone have other ways to put shedding season to good use?
