Create colourful Easter and Spring eggs to hang on your wall or turn them into lovely cards! Use any colours you’d like. Painting the eggs with watercolour paints is fun and compliments the cutout design.

1. Fold a Square piece of paper into a triangle

2. Fold it again into another triangle

3. Trace the bunny image (from above) any direction you want making sure the edge hits along two of the folded areas.

4. Cut out the image. Don’t cut on the fold, just on the design, that way the bunny image sticks together, like a snowflake or paper chain.

5. Open it up to view your pattern and put it aside.

6. Paint a large egg that will fit your bunny cutout. Use paper or cardboard. Paint the paper or colour it with whatever you’d like.

7. Glue your bunny cutout onto your large painted paper egg!

If the paper starts to fold after Gluing on the design, weight it down over night with some heavy books,

These adorable books have one bunny on the front, but once you open it up, another bunny friend appears, with the cutest cutout heart between them. Gift these mini bunny booklets to someone you love or make some for yourself!

Choose from a few different styles. Add your own creative to the cover and the inside.

Cutout out several white pieces of paper together with our free bunny template and staple it all together where the arrows indicate.

Make the cover out of felt or coloured paper.

Get extra creative: try adding string embroidery to the wreath, follow along the wreath pattern to make the embroidery. A perfect template to follow for kids learning to embroider and sew. You can try to make your own embroidery as well.

You can paint or write your own message on the front cover or use one of the designs we have come up with.

This is the perfect little book to write special self affirmations onto or dreams and goals you want to record.

Turn them into nature books and write what you see on your nature walk.

𝙋𝙖𝙥𝙚𝙧 𝙍𝙤𝙡𝙡 𝘽𝙪𝙣𝙣𝙞𝙚𝙨!

Print and cutout and these cute bunny templates and simply glue them onto a paper roll. Add clothing to make them into Mr. and Mrs. or two girlfriends. Play around with clothing designs by adding paper or felt clothing to your bunnies!

we glued them onto the toilet paper roll and then cut away part of the roll around the head, to make the silhouette stand out better. You can colour your bunny and draw the clothing directly onto the paper as well. Or just make the bunnies and play with them as is,

If you’re feeling extra creative, add some props to your paper bunny toys. This paper roll carrot is adorable! Cut the top into a zig zag pattern and tape the one side of the bottom together, if you leave the one side not taped it will stand up still. We painted ours with Acrylic paint but washable paint will work too.

Play with them outside or Inside.

We also made paper roll foxes.

Push in the top middle section of the paper roll, leaving the sides upright To create ears. Paint it orange like a fox and add a white heart on the face and a round white tummy. Then draw or paint on the black eyes and nose.

We’ve seen foxes made using paper, wrap the orange paper around the paper roll. We decided to paint ours but paper would look nice too!
