Fuzzy Bunny Slippers for Barbie & Instant Pot Dyed Easter Eggs

I've wanted to make some fuzzy bunny slippers for Barbie for quite a while and decided Easter was the perfect time! They only require two pipe cleaners, two itty size pom-poms and some beads for eyes. The finished slippers are about 3/4" long and fit the slender foot dolls that wear high heels. 

A few twists, some bends, a little hot glue, and ~maybe~ a half hour of your time... 
And you'll be a Super Hero in the eyes of your girl:@)

White is a little hard to photograph...
But I think you get the idea -super cute😉


What I did:
  1. Fold pipe cleaner with one side 3/4" long. Wrap around the short end one more time to half way point, the thinner end will be the front of the slippers.
  2. Working with the longer piece, fold up and over the top of the foot, make it snug. *Pic below.
  3. Bend and wrap around the bottom of the slipper. Bring up the side behind the half circle for the top of the slipper.
  4. Make a loop for the first bunny ear. Bring long loose end through the hole for the top of the slipper.
  5. Make the second ear. Bring the loose end through the hole again.
  6. Wrap around top of slipper to bottom, tuck loose end through where it wrapped around the bottom. Cut pipe cleaner.
  7. Shape slippers.
  8. Glue on nose and eyes.

Barbie says everyone likes to feel cozy and comfortable😎

Want a few Dyed Easter Eggs but need to save a little time? Or are you interested in trying something new with the kids? This post talks about How to Dye Eggs While Making Hard Boiled Eggs in the Instant Pot Pressure Cooker:@) This was a fun little experiment that made deeply colored eggs, and tickled me with a little surprise when they were peeled...

🐰Make something just for fun and have a happy day!
