diy boxwood bunny - Re-Fabbed

I’m not sure if it’s the unseasonably warm weather we have had recently or the March flowers that have bloomed way early, but I am feeling Spring! Easter will be here before we know it, and today I have a fun little craft to get us ready. Bunnies are so cute, and I love to decorate with them for Easter and Spring in general. This bunny was created using a boxwood pick from Walmart, and the whole project was less than $5!

I used the following supplies for this project:
– Framed sign (Or even just a frame with cardboard background)
– Boxwood pick
– (1) sheet of wallpaper from the Dollar Tree
– Hot glue gun
– ¼” or ½” ribbon (optional)
– Measuring tape
– Pencil
– Scissors

First of all, let me remind you to always be on the lookout for these little framed signs. This one just had a flat, printed image, but it was 70% at Pop Shelf, making it only $1.20! You can’t beat that!

I found this wooden herringbone patterned wallpaper at the dollar tree, and I loved the variation of colors in it…this makes it easy to match a variety of woods.

I measured the inside of the frame and then marked the measurements on the back of the
wallpaper.

After trimming it down to the correct size, I peeled back the paper and lined it up at the top of the frame. I slowly peeled back the paper, smoothing the wallpaper down as I went.

I purchased this boxwood pick at Walmart for $1.28. I removed all the little sprigs from the stems.

Next, using the hot glue gun, I glued the pieces to form a circle at the base of the frame.

I then glued a smaller circle on top of the larger (body) circle to form the head.

Finally, I glued down the boxwood pieces for the ears.

Now, you can definitely add a little bow at the base of the ears or under the head. I decided to add a little orange gingham bow. It gave it a little pop of color and coordinated well with the carrots I was using.
