A clothes designer has hand-made Easter costumes for her bearded dragon - including dressing him as the EASTER BUNNY.<br /><br />Anni Becherer, 47, runs a clothing design business but put her skills to the test making tiny outfits for her pet.<br /><br />Jub Jub, the one-year-old bearded dragon, has had photoshoots in the past dressed as everything from a motorcyclist to a Game of Thrones character.<br /><br />And to celebrate Easter, mum-of-two Anni has most recently kitted Jub Jub out with an Easter bunny costume.<br /><br />Not only that, but she has also made a carrot outfit as well as dressing him up as a bunch of flowers.<br /><br />Anni, from Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, said: "The Easter bunny one only took around 40 minutes.<br /><br />"I knitted it so it was quick - and he actually likes sitting in it!<br /><br />"The carrot one wasn’t a planned outfit - I went grocery sopping and saw those amazing long carrots on sale. I knew I had to do it.<br /><br />"I did that outfit the moment I came home."<br /><br />Anni, who runs her fashion business Anni's Creations, tested the waters with a tiny Easter bunny suit to see if Jub Jub would tolerate the clothes when she first got him.<br /><br />After learning he would sit in them for a while under his heat lamp for his afternoon rest, she was inspired.<br /><br />He has since grown out of the original bunny costume, so she decided to make a new version this year, better than the last.<br /><br />But Anni isn't stopping here - and has a long list of future home-made outfits planned.<br /><br />She said: "I want to do Lady Gaga, Tina Turner and Elvis.<br /><br />"I also want to try making a corn-on-the-cob, a pea pod and a Demogorgon from Stranger Things."<br /><br />She explained that when she shares his outfits on social media, people comment that they want to be "reincarnated as Jub Jub" because he's so pampered.<br /><br />But her pieces are unique to Jub Jub, and despite requests, she said she would never sell them to anybody else.<br /><br />Anni said: "I've had people messaging me from as far away as Texas asking me to make costumes and sell them.<br /><br />"But I would never sell them. I just make them for fun for Jub Jub.<br /><br />"Not all bearded dragons like clothes on them anyway, so I'd probably have loads of returns.<br /><br />"I just dress Jub Jub up for pictures to put a smile on people's faces."
