Description

This Easter bunny made from craft foam is designed to hang from a suction cup hook but you can eliminate the hole at the top of the bunny and attach a magnet to the back of the head instead if you prefer a magnet for your frig.

It is a fun Easter kids craft that is great for Easter decorating! Just glue the craft foam pieces together and add some pony beads.

Mr. Bunny makes a great little gift for the kids to give to grandma or grandpa on Easter!

Craft Instructions

  1. Using the attached pattern, trace and cut out one bunny, one cheeks and two arms from white craft foam and cut out two ear centers from pink craft foam. Cut a 1 3/4" wide by 1 1/2" high rectangle from green craft foam.
  2. Using the hole punch, make a hole where each of the dots are marked on the pattern, two on each foot and one on the top of the head.
  3. Using the black permanent marker, write "Happy Easter" on the green rectangle.
  4. Glue one pink ear center to the center of each of the bunny's ears. Glue the cheeks sign and arms onto the bunny as pictured.
  5. Glue two eyes above the cheeks. Make three dots on each cheek with a black permanent marker. Cut three 6" pieces of button thread. Lay them together and holding them as one, tie a knot in the center of the three strands. Glue the knot to the cheeks as pictured and glue a pink pompom on top of the knot. Trim the whiskers (pieces of button thread) so they look neat.
  6. Tie a bow with the purple ribbon and glue it just under the cheeks.
  7. Cut one 8" piece and four 7" pieces of ribbon. Thread the 8" piece through the hole in the top of the bunny's head. Line up the two ends of the ribbon and tie in an overhand knot.
  8. Thread one of the 7" ribbons through each of the holes in the rabbit's feet. Pull the ends so that they are even and the center of each piece of ribbon is in the hole and the two ends are hanging below it. Thread 9 pony beads onto each ribbon* passing both ends of the ribbon through the beads. Knot the ribbon as close to the beads as you can. Cut off any excess ribbon and add a drop of glue to keep the knot secure.
  9. Attach the suction cup to any window or mirror and use the ribbon at the top of the head to hang your bunny.

*Cut the ribbon on an angle to make it easier to thread through the pony beads.
