Terra Cotta Bunny Rabbit

I am participating in the Craft Lightning Post Challenge for Terra Cotta Pots. With Easter right around the corner, I chose to turn a cute little flower pot into a Bunny Rabbit. The steps were easy and very doable for children. But I think parents would need to help with the hot glue. While my design is minimal, you could definitely add to the bunny whiskers, ribbon, flowers, and more. 

materials

Materials:

  • small terracotta pot
  • cotton pom pom (or cotton ball)
  • pink craft foam
  • white cardstock
  • googly eyes
  • white paint
  • paint brush
  • hot glue gun
  • scissors

Directions:

painting

I chose to repurpose a flower pot from another project my daughter made. To begin, I painted the outside of the pot white. Unfortunately, she had used glitter in her paint so it didn't cover smoothly. Oh well. 

Using the white cardstock and pink craft foam I cut out ears and a nose for the bunny. I didn't have white craft foam so I used the white cardstock which I really liked in the end because I could curl the ears. 

gluing

Using hot glue, attach all the parts as you desire. I began with the ears on the back of the pot but I didn't like the look so I removed them, cut a notch into each ear, and then glued it to the edge of the top of the pot. 

pom pom

I used white cotton yarn to make a small pom pom for the tail. You could use a bought pom pom or even a cotton ball. 

finished
finished!

 

The Craft Lightning Challenge was to make a craft in 30 minutes or less using clay pots. Each day there will be new posts. Take a moment to visit Morena's Corner, 30 Minute Crafts, or The Country Chic Cottage to see all the different crafts.
