Okay, after the creepy Easter Egg chick craft fail I shared earlier this week I needed to redeem myself by crafting something cute to decorate for Easter. I created these adorable little felt bunnies in less than fifteen minutes and I think they’d be so cute in a tablescape or place setting or even an Easter mantle!
What you’ll need:
White felt
Pink Felt
Small White Pom Poms
Extra Small Pink Pom Poms
Hot Glue (of course!)
I folded my white felt in half and cut the rabbit shape free-hand, I also eyeballed cutting the pin for the ears to make it a bit smaller than the white ear part. Once the pieces were cut out I fired up my glue gun and glued the two rabbit pieces together leaving the ears separate and the bottom open.
Once the body is together add the pink to the interior of the ears then finish it off with a pink mini-pom nose and a white pom pom tail!
At this point the bunnies made great finger puppets for my boys, but after we were done playing I wanted to use them for decor so I just stuffed a little polyfill into the bottom to give them some bulk and help them stand up!
Aren’t they adorable? Where would you put yours?
Thanks for stopping by!

These are very cute and I love the little “family” of bunnies! They would look cute hopping across my mantel. Happy Thursday!
Thanks Cindy! I was thinking I might make a little herd of them and put them all across the mantel! (not sure if my hubby will go for it though!
Hehehehe. Now, who could have have called your little chicks creepy? These on the other hand, are totally adorable! Love how quick they are too! This might be another one for us to try today!

You could not seal the bottom and make little finger puppets too – my kid would run around making them roar, but it’s the thought that counts.
Good work!!
As far as creepy – just don’t red eyes on these ones and you got my vote for cute!!
We actually did that before I put them out for decoration-they are great little finger puppets!
Haha – great work.
Love these Melissa, and no sew is the kicker for sure!!!
