How Do I Make A Popsicle Stick Easter Bunny?
The printable tutorial card with the full supplies list and instructions can be found at the end of this post.
Step 1 – Line Up Sticks: To create the bunny, line up six jumbo craft sticks on your work surface. Use scissors to trim additional sticks to the width of the bunny and secure them in place with a glue gun and glue sticks.
Step 2 – Paint: Pain the front and sides of the bunny with white acrylic craft paint. Set aside to dry and apply a second coat if necessary.
Step 3 – Use Template: Download, print, then cut out the bunny craft pattern. Trace the outer ear twice onto white craft felt. Trace the nose once and the inner ear twice onto pink craft felt. Cut out all patterns with scissors.
TIP! Make sure to cut inside the traced lines for a clean, finished project.
Step 4 – Assemble Ears:
Attach the pink inner ear pieces to the center of the white outer ear pieces with a glue gun and glue sticks.
NOTE: You could also use colored cardstock or craft foam instead of felt for this project.
Step 5 – Attach Ears: Flip the bunny over and glue the bunny ears to the back with a glue gun.
Step 6 – Create Bunny’s Face: Flip the bunny back over and stick the googly eyes in the center towards the top of the head, then glue the bunny’s felt nose just under the eyes.
Create cheeks by dipping a sponge dabber into pink acrylic craft paint and stamping on either side of the face. Leave to dry.
Step 7 – Add Whiskers: Cut black pipe cleaners in half and use a glue gun and glue sticks to attach three on either side of the bunny’s nose.
Step 8 – Draw Mouth: Draw a straight line from the base of the nose to create the bunny’s mouth. Your popsicle stick Easter bunny craft is now complete! Display where desired and Happy Easter!
