These bunnies would work for any "milk carton" type packaging,
I also saw bubble gum, Reese's Pieces and malt balls in the Easter section at Walmart this morning.
I picked up the crackers because, um, it's been 100 years since ~this kid~ had them...

Supplies:
- Roll straight pipe cleaner into a tight circle. Bend end over last row so it closes.
- Bend two bumps of a chenille pipe cleaner in half to create ears.
- Glue ears to the back of the head. I brought the bend down to about the center of the head.
- Whiskers: I used a thick thread, yarn, bakers twine, and jute are other options. Glue whiskers to center of head.
- Nose: I used a pink bead, pom-poms, felt, a button, etc could be used. Glue nose over whiskers.
- Glue on eyes.
- Paws: Cut a 6" piece of straight pipe cleaner. (Please note, I show 3" in the pic but ended up using a longer piece.) Center pipe cleaner on center of back of head and glue in place. Bend paws down other the top of the carton. Trim the pipe cleaner if needed.
- The bottom of the head in back and paws in front balance the bunny on the carton.
Make something just for fun and have a happy day:@)

ReplyDeleteSEW creative, Lynn... I ♥♥♥ it! I have the eyes on hand as well as the thread & beads. I just need to pick up some green pipe cleaners. Can't wait to make at least 3 of these for the grandkidlets. Even the 20 yr. old will smile at this if it is attached to CHOCOLATE somehow. Thanks a million for sharing such a cute idea.
