Step-by-step instructions for an enchanting Easter decoration

Without further ado, let's dive into the creative crafting process. Simply follow these steps to create your very own Easter bunny:

1. Painting polystyrene eggs

Start by painting the polystyrene egg with Hobby Color craft paint in grey-brown. Allow it to dry completely before continuing. You can then paint the bunny's face with a fine brush. Use the colours white and black to give the bunny character.


2. Bunny ears made from tree bark

Cut out two bunny ears from the tree bark. Use a scalpel to make two slits in the top of the painted polystyrene egg. Carefully plough the ears in. If necessary, fix them in place with a drop of hot glue.


3. Preparation of the log

Drill a hole with a diameter of 8 mm in the centre of the log. Saw off a suitable piece of the round bar and glue it into the drilled hole.


4. Attach rabbit head

Put a large blob of hot glue on the end of the round bar and press the bunny head onto it. Allow the glue to dry well so that everything is firmly in place.


5. Ribbon and hearts

Tie a pretty bow made from chequered ribbon around the bunny's neck. Cut two hearts of different sizes from the tree bark and another from the ribbon. Stick them on top of each other and poke two holes through the largest heart with the tip of the scissors.


6. Attach the loop

Thread a wire through the holes in the heart and attach it to the log with a screw hook.


Additional tip: Weatherproof protection

If you want to place your bunny outdoors, we recommend coating it with a protective varnish. This varnish offers optimum weather protection and allows your bunny to withstand even the most uncomfortable weather conditions.
