Spring is right around the corner, y’all! Easter eggs, Easter decorations, it is all coming so fast. These easy diy farmhouse bunnies can stick around even after all the easter decorations have came down. The drop cloth fabric makes these bunnies the perfect spring decor, you could even do them in different colors, or use scrap fabric.
Iv’e provided step by step instructions with a video tutorial to make this easy easter bunny craft even easier. No sewing skills required.
Supplies needed for your farmhouse fabric bunny:
- drop cloth or your choice of fabric
- hot glue gun or fabric glue
- scissors (using pinking shears would be SO cute along the body shape of the easter bunnies)
- polyfil (or stuffing from an old pillow)
- alphabet letter stamps (optional) Hobby Lobby has these also.
STEP ONE: CUT OUT YOUR TEMPLATE
Below I have provided a FREE bunny template for you to use for this easy craft. If you prefer, you could easily draw your own bunny pattern on a piece of paper.
STEP TWO: TRACE YOUR BUNNY TEMPLATE ONTO YOUR FABRIC
Trace your bunny template onto a double layer of fabric. I used a pencil.
TIP: You could use straight pins to keep the template in place but I find that to just be an extra step.
STEP THREE: CUT YOUR BUNNY OUT OF YOUR FABRIC
On the double layer of fabric, Use your scissors (or pinking shears) to cut the bunny shape out.
STEP FOUR: GLUING YOUR BUNNY TOGETHER
Using your hot glue, start gluing your bunny together. Starting with the bunny’s ears, then the bunny’s neck, working your way to the bottom of the bunny, stopping to stuff the bunny along the way.
IMPORTANT! Make sure you leave the very bottom of the bunny open to stuff (or stuff as you go, like me)
STEP FIVE: STUFFING YOUR BUNNY
As you glue your bunny together, stop and fill the bunny along the way. You could wait until the end but I prefer to fill the bunny as I glue, I find that filling the bunny as I go produces a cleaner look and my glue doesn’t dry as fast.
TIPS: use a wooden spoon or stick to push your filling into hard to reach spots (such as the inner ear shapes).
Your bunny is complete! The next steps are totally optional but add a cute vintage feel to your bunny.
I added a bow made out of a scrap piece of my drop cloth fabric and used my favorite alphabet letter stamps to add some easter spirit to my cute bunny.
Take a look below on how to make your own fabric bow.
Let’s make a fabric bow
First, wrap one piece of fabric over the other then repeat for the other side.
Next, use a string to wrap around the middle.
Tie a knot in the back and cut the excess.
Now that we have added cute little details, you have completed your no sew farmhouse fabric bunny!
