Dollar Store Bunny Instructions

I purchased a few garden kneeling pads from my local Dollar Store.

1. Make a Bunny Template

I used a recycled Paperback and drew half of a bunny design on it. You could alternatively use a blank piece of paper or recycled paper.

I folded the paper bag in half and cut out the bunny shape. I folded the paper in half so that each side would be the same. Similar to when you fold a piece of paper out and cut a heart shape out.

I unfolded the paper bag and my template is ready to create my DIY bunny.

2. Trace the bunny on the pad

I placed my template onto the garden pad. You can tape the template onto the pad to help hold it into place.

I traced around the template onto the foam garden pad with a sharpie marker. You could also use a dry erase marker, pen, pencil, etc.

3. Cut out the bunny

I placed my foam garden pad onto a cookie sheet to protect my tabletop. I used a serrated knife that I purchased for crafting to cut out the bunny shape. You could also use scissors, heat knives, or a razor blade if you’d rather.

4. add a face

I hot glued on some buttons for the eyes and nose of my bunny.

5. Add your display method

I made a little loop and knot with some twine and hot glued it onto the back so that I could hang my dollar store bunny. You could alternatively use a skewer in the bottom so that you could place the bunny in a centerpiece on your easter table or stake it into the ground along a walkway, etc.

I cut out a second bunny and for this one, I hot glued on a tail for the back of the bunny instead of the button eyes on the front of the bunny.

Here are the 3 bunnies that I made.

You can have fun with these adorable bunnies by decorating them in different ways:

• Embelish the bunny ears
• Add a bow tie
• Add a little bow between the ears

I hung 2 of the bunnies on my porch.

I hung the other bunny on my front door.

What other Bunnies can you make with dollar tree items?

• Grab a bunny wreath form and braid it with nautical rope
• Grab 2 wreath forms, bunny ears, and some burlap ribbon to make this cute wreath.
• Make a bunny banner or Easter banner with foam, wood, or burlap bunny cutouts glued to twine and hang it on your fireplace mantel
• Grab some dollar store terra cotta pots and make this cute terra cotta bunny
• Grab a cutting board and some ribbon to make these dollar tree carrots
