Equipment

  • Hot Glue Gun
  • knife
  • Scissors

Ingredients

  • Garden kneeling pad
  • Paper
  • Marker
  • Buttons or bunny tail

Instructions

  • 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 the bunny shape out. 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.
  • 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.
  • CUT THE BUNNY OUT - 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.
  • ADD A FACE - I hot glued on some buttons for the eyes and nose of my bunny.
  • ADD YOUR DISPLAY METHOD - I made a little loop and knot with some twine and hot glue it onto the back so that I could hang my dollar store bunny up. You could alternatively use a skewer in the bottom so that you can place the bunny in a centerpiece, stake it into the ground along a walkway, etc.
