Paper Easter Bunnies Garland

All it takes is a little folding and cutting to make a colony of precious paper bunnies to decorate your table for Easter. Because they are folded, they can stand on their own. The same bunny silhouettes also would make a cute border for a window. This project can also be taken step further and turned into a tea light holder. The link to that project can be found below.

Illustrated Craft Tutorial:

Paper Bunny Garland Tutorial 1
1. This bunny template was printed out so that it measures 5.5 centimeters from the straight edge to the outer round edge of the bunny body. The template was then glued onto a cereal box side to make it more sturdy to trace around and then it was cut out. To make a garland with 5 bunnies with this template, 27.5 centimeters of paper plus 2 centimeters more was needed plus the height which was 12 centimeters plus a centimeter more. That makes the paper strip a total of 29.5 x 13 centimeters.

2. Start on the left side of the paper and draw a 1 centimeter line from the top to bottom. This will enable you to have a round body edge. Then measure five 5.5 centimeter segments. At then end you have then 1 centimeter left for the other body side of the bunny.

4. Place the straight line of the rounded side of the bunny template on the left side where the 1 centimeter line is and line it up. The other side should be lined up on the folded line. Then trace the bunny. On the left side, add the rounded edge in the 1 centimeter space.
