No Sew Gnomes dressed up like Bunnies, Carrots or their Easter Best. Made from Socks, Pool Noodles, Dollar Tree Makeovers and MORE
Bunnies
I ordered these off from Amazon. You get 24 for $16 which makes them under .70 a piece. These work well for Gnomes too. Just glue on shoes, hat and a nose and your done. See the Gnome Decor-Eggor Below.

Faux Fur Pom Pom Bunny Magnet
Simple just glue a face on, using whatever you have around the house. Attach accents to the core of the pom pom as much as possible. i.e Try not to glue just to the fur. You want it more secure
Tip:
This is the time of year when you may find yourself making a lot of bunnies and struggling to find something to use for whiskers. Pipe cleaners are bulky and look like fuzzy caterpillars, HOWEVER if you take a lighter to a black pipe cleaner, it will melt the fuzz and leave you with a black wire. Perfect for whiskers
Bunny Wreath
This was a Dollar Tree Wire Bunny Wreath Form I wrapped with chunky yarn, also a DT find. I then cut a 8" circle from DT Foam Core, covered it with DT plaid fabric and glued it to the back, good side facing out. For the inside of the ears I used the same fabric but glued jute around them so fabric would not unravel. Added a bow and Done.
Dollar Tree Dice Bunnies
Antique Bunny Wall Hanging
I seen a video where the lady used a lighter to burn off the excess when mod podging a napkin unto a wooden cut out. Worked like a charm in the video. not so much in my kitchen. It scorch the paper .. so I pretty much just went with it and antiqued the whole bunny. He's Cute, but not my first choice.
Bunny Candle Holder
Turn a wine glass into a cute bunny candle holder. Face can be made from anything you have, Googley eyes, felt, pom poms, marker, paint etc.
Bunny Jar
This is a spaghetti jar I painted pink. The hat is a Twisted Ruffled Hat (See Our Sock Gnome Page for pattern) I made bigger. The ears are felt. The eyes are mod podged on (There's a JPG File on Our Crafts Page) Pom Pom Nose, Wooden ball for the nose and whiskers are pipe cleaners I singed . I later added eyelashes, which do you like better ?
Bunny Silhouette Jar
This is a spaghetti sauce jar. I used the Cricut vinyl to make bunnies then painted the jar black over them. Peeled them off when it wa dry. Added Easter Grass, Fairy Lights and ribbon for a fun silhouette jar.
DT Wooden Plaques Bunny
This Bunny was made from 2 DT Wooden Heart Plaques (Feet are 1 and Body is one flipped upside down) and a Bunny Wooden Head Plaque. I stacked and glued the DT Jenga Blocks to the back, to make her stand. Then just added a face and ribbons.
Dollar Tree Bunny Makeover
I painted the bunny black (I did use the brown bunny to start with so paint would cover better). I Love the black bunny and it's great for decor BUT you lose the softness by doing this, so I wouldn't recommend it for a child. I then added the face and clothes. Once again eyes are on the Crafts Page and Hat is on the Sock Gnomes Page
Puppy With Bunny Ears
It's "Ruff" when the Bunnies and Chicks get all the attention this time of year !!
See Our Animals Page for Step by Step Instructions for How To Make The Yarn Puppy
Hey !!!
You're Not a Bunny
HTV Vinyl lets you easily personalize your bunnies. For this one I wanted the eyes a little bigger so I added vinyl over the existing eyes too.
This one went to my nephew who is a brown belt in Tae Kwon Do
Amazon Paid Link
My nephew made these eyes for me. So Cute !!! I have used them on several projects. I just print them and Mod Podge them on.

Bunny Spa Day. Everybunny needs a complimentary snack tray with their bath. The tray is made from DT Jenga blocks. Bubble bath is polyfil/stuffing with crystal glitter.
I Love Buffalo Plaid
For this one her nose came off when I ironed on the eyes, so I replaced it with a painted wooden ball. I also like the whiskers (which are black pipe cleaners) not being straight.
Dollar Tree Pizza Pan Bunny
I painted a DT Pizza Pan with White Chalk Paint and glued on a DT Hat. The ears are DT Foam Board covered with white felt and I glued chunky yarn around it. This face was made with the Cricut permanent vinyl.
No Cricut ? No Problem. Use Felt, Pom Poms, etc for the face
This was made with a Dollar Tree canvas. I glued popsicle sticks across for the brim of he hat and added fur, pom poms a nose and whiskers. Add a bow to the hat and done.
Dollar Tree Canvas Bunny
This was made with a Dollar Tree wooden silhouette bunny and a DT wooden crate. I decoupaged fabric unto the bunny and filled the crate with DT flowers.
Silhouette Bunny Garden
Dollar Tree Plaid Bunnies Garland can be cut apart and added to other crafts. Flowers and wooden box were also Dollar Tree finds
Bunny Made From DT Egg
I glued on boots (Instructions on the Sock Gnome Page) and felt ears. Eyes and nose are painted wooden balls. Whiskers are pipe cleaners. Added bows and done.
Dollar Tree has a variety of hanging holiday signs, my problem is I don't have that much wall space. You can easily transform them into a stand up piece by adding legs and boots/shoes
Or you can continue adding and make him into a Carrot Bandit.
Or if you have wall space. You can crackle paint a bunny sign. I painted the bunny with purple, pink and blue stripes, let it dry and painted a coat of Elmer's Glue over it. While the glue was still tacky I painted over it with white paint. Used a stiff yucky brush for this, using as few brush strokes as possible. White paint crackles as it dries. It's pretty cool.
No Sew Bunnies
Whether you want your ears long or short, unfinished edges or glued seams. You need a Bunny Base to start.
Step by Step Instructions for your Bunny Base
There are more pics then what you can see. Click on 1st pic to start slide show.
Add embellishments to make him your own
Add Pom Poms and Googley Eyes for a crafty character look. Kids love these.
You will need. 1 Crew Sock, Rice enough to fill a Solo Cup 3/4 full, twine and a rubber band and an additional Solo Cup (Optional)
The crew socks I got at Dollar Tree 3 PAIR for $1. Cut the ribbed calf off for small ear bunnies
I cut the bottom off a Solo cup and use it as a funnel to put the rice into the sock. You don't need it I just find it helps.
Place the funnel into the sock
Pour 3/4 of a Solo cup full of rice into the sock. Measurements do not have to be precise. If you want a larger bunny use more, smaller bunny use less. Doesn't have to be all rice, you can use beans, cat liter (in a bag), aquarium rocks etc. OR any of the above just in the bottom for weight and fill the rest with polyfil
Tie off the top of your bunny where the rice stops, so what will be ears stick out the top. I use a rubber band to tie it off so it's tight and secure. Then I tie a piece of twine over it because over time the rubber band may weaken. Use a little glue on the knot to secure.
Shape the body of the bunny into two sections. They don't have to be even. Keep in mind the top section will be the head and the bottom will be the body
Tie a piece of twine tightly around the the mid section to define the head and body
Standing upright it should look something like this
Add Burlap, painted glue dots, twine and a little blush for a more Farmhouse look
Add felt eyes and nose along with the twine and a rustic looking carrot (Dollar Tree) for a combination of the 2.
Big Carrots and Bunnies
Big carrots and Bunnies are made from 2 Liter Pop (Soda) Bottles. Use just the carrot, just the bunnies or any combo to fit your space
Make Your Own Bunny Garden Instructions
Click on 1st Pic to start Slide Show.
There are more pics then what you can see
Paint a 2 Liter Pop Bottle white, add stiffen burlap for ears any oblong shape you'd like. From there you can decorate her anyway you want. I used felt for her bow and apron, Googly eyes and pom poms for her face and a black marker for accents.
Don't forget her tail. I used Jute I twisted around cardboard to make a pom pom. "But" pom poms or cotton balls would work too.
Really Big Carrots. Cut a 2 Liter Pop Bottle at any length and paint it orange. Optional I glued Jute around it to make the circles
Glue green stiffen burlap to the top. Long and narrow strips no pattern they are all different. Note the longer the leaves the stiffer the burlap needs to be. Use more Mod Podge to make burlap stiffer
Cut triangular scrap pieces for not only decoration but to help support the burlap upright. If you still find the burlap flopping over to far use longer scrap pieces like an L-Bracket
Bunny dragging the carrot. Use felt or something flexible for arms when you are making your bunny
These are two separate pieces. Trying to glue then together proved futile. Note: Lots of Hot Glue even if it's a cool melt glue gun will melt a plastic pop bottle
To angle the bottle so she can carry it glue a triangular piece of Styrofoam to it
Cover the styrofoam with moss so it doesn't show
You will need:
2 Liter Pop/Soda Bottles
Paint
Knife
Glue Gun
EVERYTHING else is whatever you want.
​
I used Stiffen Burlap (See My Craft Page as to How To Cut and Stiffen Burlap) but you could use Felt or foam board or even construction paper. I used Felt for Bows and Aprons but again you can use whatever you have on hand. For the face I used googly eyes, pom poms and jute but you could just paint one on.
There isn't a pattern for any of it. Greenery for carrots are long strips of burlap none are the same. Bunny ears are basically pointed ovals but they are all different shapes and sizes. * Cut 2 at a time for 1 Bunny. You don't really want one bunny to have 2 different ears but other then that you can't mess them up.
I set them up in my house on the coffee table, so I wanted a 360 degree view.

Peeking Bunny
I combined 2 Dollar Tree Signs. Burlap, twine and some DT greens were the perfect "Addition".
For this one I toned down the gawdy sparkly garland with some paint and added silk leaves and bunnies. The bunnies, also Dollar Tree were a garland I cut apart.
Decoupage
Decoupage is a quick easy way to decorate your crafts. Here are some cute Bunnies you can download and print. Click on the ones you want.
Bunny with Orange Eggs
This is the JPG File I used. I just printed it out and Mod Podged it to a pizza pan. Click on pic to download
A wire wreath frame and Dollar Tree orange burlap ribbon were the base of this wreath. When I ran out of ribbon (4 and 1/2 rolls) I added green tulle from Hobby Lobby. The bunny is decoupaged on to a DT pizza pan I glued and wired to the back of the wreath. Then just added the DT carrot.
HI
For this one I just Mod Podge the bunny on a Dollar Tree wooden sign. The HI was done on the Cricut but could easily be painted. Loved this one so much I hung it on my house
I Mod Podged this one to a Dollar Tree stretched canvas. Added the Happy Easter I made with the Cricut. fyi ... It is harder to get the wrinkles out when you are gluing to something that does not have a solid surface. Especially if you are trying to cover the entire area.
Bunny Egg
Although it's hard to tell from the 1st pic this one actually has dimension. I used 1/2 of one of the large DT plastic eggs (I cracked the other half didn't want to waste $1.25.) I painted it. (Make sure you Mod Podge after you paint plastic or it will chip !!) I mod podged the bunny on the inside (This is a great way to get a focal point without buying a figurine) DT Rick Rack around the edge. I poked a hole in the bottom and inserted a dowel. (I added a small piece of styrofoam inside to help secure it) The flowers are cardstock (See Our Crafty Fun Cuts Cardstock Page for SVG or you could use silk flowers) The sign is a DT chalkboard (I flipped around and used the wooden side) DT Clay Pot, I filled with styrofoam and rocks (You want some weight in there) Glue the dowel into the styrofoam and add more flowers and Easter Grass into the pot..
Crosses
The base of this is a Dollar Tree Stretched Canvas. It was painted with a crackle technique. I painted the whole thing black, let it dry and painted a coat of Elmer's Glue over it. While the glue was still tacky I painted over it with white paint. Used a stiff yucky brush for this, using as few brush strokes as possible. White paint crackles as it dries. It's pretty cool. The cross is DT Jenga Blocks and the flower was made on the Cricut from the Free SVGs on Design Space. There's a guide for them on the Cardstock Page.
He Is Risen Shelf Sitter
Dollar Tree Wooden Box I painted black. I added the cross made from DT Jenga Blocks which I draped with burlap. Lettering was done on the Cricut.

Decoupaged sheet music to the outside of a spaghetti sauce jar. I then wrapped and glued it with jute/twine. The inside cross is cut (with a scissors :) No Cricut needed) from cardstock I colored with a black marker and Mod Podge to the inside. Added fairy lights to light it up. The outside cross are sticks and burlap.

Carrots
Dollar Tree Dice - Carrot
The eyes are a JPG I printed out and Mod Podged on. (Brown, Green and Blue) are available on Our Crafts Page. The nose is hot glue I stacked in layers.
Add Legs and shoes
They are cute without the face too
Carrot Magnet
This is a small Dollar Tree Cut Out, you get 8 in a package.
Egg-stra-ordinary Carrots
Everybody thinks Easter is all about the Bunny BUT... It's gnomes who put the magic in Easter. This was a DT Plastic egg I cut a hole in and painted. (Note: This was one of the ones that had the clear plastic on one side and the colored plastic on the other. Cut the hole in the clear plastic side. The colored side is a harder plastic and will crack when you try to cut it.) Carrots and Clay Pot are also DT. I did paint the carrots, they were originally the ones that were striped and replaced the paper leaves with raffia. There's various options to make the gnomes on Our Gnome Pages. Added fairy lights to make it magical.
Carrot Garland
Gnome Feet
This mold is available at Amazon. The big ones are 2" the small ones are approx 1 1/2".
Simply fill them with your hot glue gun.
Carrot Jar With Bunny Ears
This is a jelly jar I filled with DT carrots. The ears are from the Bunny Faces available on the Cricut Easter Page but you could do them in felt and get the same effect.
Dollar Tree Carrots Arrangement
The Container is a DT Bucket I wrapped with green burlap. I filled it with metal carrots and the plaid carrots were a DT garland.
Hint: Fake greenery can be expensive and hard to find at DT lately. For your more "Country Rustic" crafts you can stiffen green burlap to help fill in. Delute matte Mod Podge with water, paint it on your burlap, place it flat on foil to dry, so it doesn't stick. Once dry you can cut the burlap into leaf shapes and it won't unravel. You can glue them onto a stick/wire or sometimes I just glue them into the arrangement.
Stiffening burlap is a good method for making flowers too. Simply cut out petals and glue them together.
This is not a Step By Step Tutorial but more of a Slide Show Guide to show you what I used and where I got them. There are more pics then what you can see here. Click on 1st pic to start.
Gnome Grown Tiered Tray
Gnome Grown Carrot Stand
This is a stand alone piece, that is cute whether you have a tiered tray or not. It's made from a Dollar Tree crate and popsicle sticks. Gnome is a Prescription Bottle Gnome. You can find Step by Step Instructions on The Gnome Page
Chicks and Eggs
Hangin' With My Peeps
Chick Refrigerator Magnet
Egg-Cellent
He was made with a DT Wooden Egg. I used the Cricut for the glasses and words however a wire and paint pen would work. I glued dowels on the bottom with shoes. There are Step by Step Instructions on Our Sock Gnome Page for the shoes
Farm Fresh Eggs
Egg was painted with a crackle technique. I painted the whole thing black, let it dry and painted a coat of Elmer's Glue over it. While the glue was still tacky I painted over it with white paint. Used a stiff yucky brush for this, using as few brush strokes as possible. White paint crackles as it dries. It's pretty cool.
Welcome Peeps
Dollar Tree Egg I decoupaged with fabric and added felt for the crack and beak. The eyes are 1/2 wooden balls and pipe cleaners for the "Hair". Welcome was done on the Cricut.
The Egg Wreath is not an original idea, they seem to be all over the craft group pages. I learned making this that if you use a little bit of hot glue on the eggs and tack them to the frame it's easier to close, so you don't have eggs popping out while you are trying.
I Mod Podged the chick inside a Dollar Tree plastic egg and glued it into a wooden box (With the help of some small styrofoam pieces to help it stand upright) Added burlap,flowers, eggs and some twine.

String Eggs
You will need string, a balloon, glue, a pan, a measuring cup and a heavy spoon
Mix glue and water together at a 50/50 ratio
Run string through your glue mixture. If you run the string under a heavy spoon to weigh it down it won't tangle as badly
Wrap wet string around the tie
Continue to wrap wet string around the balloon
Keep wrapping
Still wrapping
Cut the string when you get it to the desired coverage
Let it sit in a bowl to dry. Moving it occasionally so it doesn't stick to bowl. If your balloon has a more rounded shape you can pull on the tied off part to get a desired egg shape while it is still wet.

Turn a Milk Jug Into a Bunny Basket
Empty Toilet Paper Rolls can be Fun Animals
These are here to give you ideas, so there are no patterns or lists of materials needed. Use what you have. Felt, foam board, construction paper. paint, markers. I used pipe cleaners for whiskers if you don't have pipe cleaners use string, yarn or wire. If you don't have googly eyes use felt or just draw them on. Bunny ears are just a basic oval pointy on one end. They can be long and skinny or short and fat. Although in my opinion it's better to cut both ears at the same time so they match, if you want 1 ear tall and the other one short, go for it.There is no right or wrong
Bunny Nose Masks
Add Pom Poms and Pipe Cleaners to Craft Sticks for fun masks that "No Bunny" will recognize you when you wear them.
Bunny Candle
DT now has pastel candles. They are not perfect (They're $1.25) BUT they can be doctored up. Mod Podge a picture on to it and some crystal glitter and some ribbons. Great kid's craft.
