Coffee Can Bunny
"I wanted to share an "Easter" or "Rabbit" themed project that I did with my Scout troops that turned out really cute."
Thanks for sharing with our viewers Lisa!
Materials:
 | coffee can |
| white spray paint |
| spray adhesive (adults only) or tacky glue |
| cotton balls |
| bunny face template (see
CD Rabbit craft)
|
| *OPTIONAL* rabbit ears headband |
| *OPTIONAL* little feather duster |
|
|
Instructions:
| Spray paint the entire coffee can white, including the plastic over. (You
could have an adult do this ahead of time.) |
| We used spray adhesive (adults only...alternatively you could use tacky glue) and covered the entire can in cotton balls. |
| Using the DLTK template for the CD
Rabbit, we glued the face to the front of the can where the plastic cover was. |
| We purchased those cute little "rabbit" ears (from the local dollar
store) that kids wear around this season (headband type) and put those around the coffee can close to the face (or you can just use heavy card stock, trace out ears, and attach to the top of the can close to the face). |
| For an added touch, we purchased miniature feather dusters (they look like big fluffy make up brushes).
My husband poked a whole with a screw driver through the back of the coffee can (opposite the face) and the girls inserted the feather dusters the the hole so just the fluffy part showed (making a big fluffy tail). |
I do not have pictures, but if you try it, you will see it turns out to be the cutest bunny ever.
Hope you like it, it also makes a cute centerpiece on the table!
