How to make a yarn wrapped Easter egg bunny craft!
STEP ONE
Gather all your supplies. Press the base of the foam egg on a hard surface to flatten it slightly.
This will help the egg to sit in place without rolling around.
STEP TWO
Download and print the cutout patterns.
Using a permanent marker, trace six small circles, two larger circles, and one nose onto white craft felt for each bunny.
Cut out the patterns with your scissors.
TIP: Cut inside the traced line, so that your finished project looks neat and clean.
STEP THREE
Trace two ears and two oval feet on baby pink, baby blue, and/or violet sky craft felt, and then cut out with scissors.
You could also use colored cardstock or craft foam for this project.
STEP FOUR
Measure and cut three 4” long pieces of black wire with wire cutters.
Flip the white felt nose over, and attach the three wires in a crisscross pattern using a glue gun and glue sticks.
STEP FIVE
Using a glue gun and glue sticks, attach two black buttons for the eyes and attach the white felt nose just under the eyes.
Assemble the bunny’s feet using the photo for placement. Place a small dot of glue at the base of each ear, and then fold it in half to give the ears dimension.
You can use liquid craft glue for this project, but you will have to wait for it to dry.
And here are the Bunnies ready for their close-up!
Make several and gift them to a teacher, friend, or neighbor or use them as place cards for your family’s Easter dinner.
They are so quick and easy to make with the kiddos.
