Materials
- 2 Wood Slices
- Pink Wired Burlap Ribbon
- Felt Bunny Feet
- Felt Pink Heart
- White Balloon Weight
- White Chalk Paint
Tools
- Foam Paint Brush
- Hot Glue Gun
- Scissors
- Black Sharpie Paint Pen
Instructions
- Make sure you choose a wood slice for the bottom of the bunny that is able to stand up.
- Paint one side of both wood slices with white chalk paint with two coats, letting dry in between the two coats.
- Hot glue the two wood slices together, one on top of the other. Make sure to stand the larger wood slice to find the spot where it will stand up first before gluing the smaller wood slice to the top.
- Create the bunny ears from the pink ribbon. Cut two lengths of ribbon at approximately 2 inches each. Roll the ribbon from corner to corner to make pointed ears.
- Hot glue the ribbon in place. I used a plastic toothpick to lightly add the hot glue under the wrapped corner.
- Gage where to place the bunny ears and flip the wood slices over to hot glue the ears. Trim any excess from the bottom of the ears if the bottom part of the ribbon is showing from the front.
- Gage best placing for bunny feet and hot glue to the bottom wood slice. Make sure the feet do not extend below the wood slice at the very bottom as to not interfere with the bunny standing up.
- Trim the felt heart down to the best size for the bunny face. Do not glue the nose at this time.
- Cut 6 white strips from the balloon weight. The strips are slightly tapered, with the bottom end larger than the top ends. Cut from the top end of the strips to the best length for the whiskers. Mine are 3 inches but may vary based on the size of your wood slice.
- Draw a bunny face with a sharpie paint pen.
- Add a dot of hot glue in the middle of the bunny's face. Place the ends of three whiskers on each side of the face into the hot glue. Press heart nose down on top of the glue.
