So I saw the cutest garland (pictured below) on pinterest and I knew I had to make it!
My version…
I created my own bunny behind template which you can get HERE. (You are more than welcome to use my printable but you may not copy it as your own or sell it for a profit. For personal use only!)
To create the entire garland you will need:
- White cardstock (8.5x11)
- Scissors
- Scrapbook paper scraps
- Black Chalk Ink (optional)
- Hole punch
- 6-8 feet of ribbon, string, or yarn
- Scotch tape
To begin, print out the template onto your white cardstock.
Then cut out around the bunnies about 1/4 to 1/2 an inch OUTSIDE of the black outline. They will look like this when done…
Then take some scrapbook paper scraps and cut out two inch circles which will be used for the tail. I used my cricut to cut out the circles, but you can always trace a cup and cut it out with scissors.
I wanted to give the tails a little dimension like the ones in the inspiration photo, so I added black chalk ink around the edges of the circles. This step is optional.
Then take your scotch tape and make it into a loop. Turn over your circles and place a piece of tape in the center of each tail.
Then center the tail on the middle of the bunnies booty.
I used my fingers to gently bend the circles to give even more dimension. What bunny doesn’t have a fluffy tail?
After all of the tails were taped on, I used my whole punch to make a hole in each ear.
I then used a 6-8 foot piece of unbleached butchers string to string through my bunny ears.
Then I found a place to hang my garland for all of our Easter brunch guests to see! I think they will get a kick out of it – what about you?
Enjoy,
