With some of the extra ribbon, I'm going to make a little bow and additional ribbon hanging from the bottom of the hat.  I am adding flowers around the hat and a little bit of the greenery for spring. Once that is where I want it I will glue everything into place. The felt bunny came with a little bow and I thought it was cute so I'm going to tuck it in behind the flowers.
