📝 Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Print page 1 and cut out front and back with a white border.
2
Cover both pieces in wide clear tape, ears included.
3
Stack them, tape all around and leave about 1 inch open at the bottom.
4
Stuff with cotton – just a tiny bit in the ears.
5
Tape the opening closed.

💡 Tips

  • Cut slowly around the long ears.
  • Stuff the ears lightly so they stand up better.
  • On the 3D bunny, gently bend the ears up after twisting the top.
  • A strip of tape across the base of the ears makes them sturdier.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Won’t the ears flop over?
Tape on both sides keeps them sturdy, and not overstuffing helps too.

Is this an Easter squishy?
It’s perfect for Easter, but it’s a cute bunny all year round.

What stuffing works for the ears?
A small tuft of cotton is enough – yarn can make them too heavy.
