Want to make your paper bag bunny even cuter? There are so many creative ways to decorate it, from adding accessories to personalizing the face. Try these fun ideas to give your bunny bag a unique touch!
Add different colours of ribbon for the bow around the ears For a fancier bow (like some of our bunny bags have), follow our doubled looped bow tutorial on our How to Make a Bow post! Make glasses for the bunny from pipe cleaners Glue a foam carrot to the bag Use a pom pom for the bunny’s nose (trim it into a triangle shape before gluing it). Attach faux spring flowers instead of (or in addition to) the bow Give your bunny rosy cheeks by using pencil crayon or dabbing some pink chalk or pastel onto the paper bag. Draw or glue on little feet near the bottom of the bag for an extra adorable detail.
Do I need colored pencils to make this paper bag bunny craft?
No, colored pencils aren’t required! You can also use paint markers, crayons, or even regular markers (though they may appear muted on the brown paper). For a more textured look, try cutting out the inner ears and nose from cardstock or craft foam and gluing them on. Get creative and make your bunny unique! This paper bag bunny is more than just a cute Easter craft: it’s a creative way to make gift-giving extra special! You can personalize each bag by using different colours, adding fun accessories, or even writing names on the ears for a unique touch. These bunny bags aren’t just for Easter, either! Try making them for spring birthdays, baby showers, or as a fun way to package small surprises any time of the year. They’re also a great classroom or group craft, since they require minimal supplies and can be customized in so many ways!
