Garden Bunny Craft
By Tamera Bastiaans
I was babysitting for three kids
and came up with this nice craft for Easter or Spring.
You will need:
5x7 wood plaque
5" wooden fence piece
small wooden shapes for spring (flowers, pots, hearts, bird houses, birds,
signs)
Bee hives
3-d small bird houses
tiny rose vines
bunny knick knacks (I got my bunnies from the $1 store!)
lots of paint
glue and glue gun
Moss
wire
Directions:
1. I painted all the shapes the night before...flowers were made with the
hearts and flower shapes by hot glueing a piece of wire (curled around a
nail) onto the back before painting. I painted the fences, plaques, pots.
Not pictured are the bee hives, large 3-D bird houses and Happy Easter
signs and birds (I made mine with the leftovers!).
2. I hot glued the fences and a few other things where the kids
wanted them
placed.
3. They glued all the other pieces where they wanted, including their
bunnies (I had boy and girl bunnies for them to choose from.)
4. I helped them drape the vine roses onto the fence.
They were stunned with the results and just thrilled to have centerpieces
for their tables for Easter! It did take quite a bit of prep work, but they
were SO cute when we finished!
