Spring Bunny Wreath
This is a fun wreath to do by yourself or with a group.
Materials:
- Ring of cardboard (empty cereal boxes work wonderfully)
- construction paper (green and pink)
- scissors,
- glue
Instructions:
- Trace a small plate and a large plate onto a piece of old cardboard.
- Empty cereal boxes or frozen dinner boxes work well.
- It doesn't matter if you go over the folds of the cardboard.
Cut a small strip of cardboard and glue it onto the back of the ring over any folds in the cardboard.
- This will reinforce the ring.
- Cut strips of construction paper (about 1 1/2 inches by 4 inches).
- Glue the strips into rolls (like making a paper chain).
- Glue the rolls of construction paper onto the wreath. We made a green and pink pattern, but you can do it however you wish.
- Print out the craft template of choice.
- Color the template pieces and cut out.
- Glue the head, flower and two paws on top of the wreath.
- Glue the body, tail and two paws on the back of the wreath (so it looks like the bunny is peeking over the top.
