1. Put glue around the large rim of one terra cotta pot. While the glue is still hot, place a second pot upside down over the first one, so the open ends are facing one another. This will be the bunny’s body.
2. Place glue on the bottom side of the third pot then attach it to the top of the conjoined pots to create the bunny’s head.
3. Paint the entire surface of the bunny, inside and outside, with white paint. Let dry.
4. On craft foam, draw and cut out two pink ovals for ears, two white ovals for arms and two smaller white ovals for feet.
5. Glue bunny ears to the inside of the top terra cotta pot.
6. Glue the top of the arms to the side of the bunny, leaving the bottom portion (paws) unglued.
7. Glue bunny feet to the bottom of the terra cotta pot.
8. Wrap ribbon around the joint between the bunny head and body and tie in a bow.
9. Cut a 2 1/2-inch Easter egg from purple craft foam, decorate with glitter and markers then glue it to the bunny hands to look like he is holding the egg.
10. Glue on wiggly eyes and a pompom nose. Draw mouth and whiskers with a marker.
11. Glue large white pompom to the base of the back side for the tail.
12. Fill with cotton balls or Easter treats.

2 Pipe cleaners
Cotton balls
Wiggly eyes
Felt

2. Thread yarn through needle and tie a knot at the opposite end.
3. Stitch the two open seams of each half sock together to create two ears.

3. Glue the uncut, long edge of paper to the base of the toilet paper so the fringed side is facing up.
4. On the white portion of the toilet paper roll, glue two wiggly eyes.
5. Cut a small, pink triangle from construction paper. Glue inverted triangle to create nose.
6. Use marker to create whiskers and a mouth. (Note bunny should look like he’s peeking above the grass.)
