At Easter when cutting fresh white flowers from the garden, I put food coloring in the vase of water. I get beautiful pastel flowers. Kids also enjoy doing this.
Create this cute bunny vase for your Easter table from a pint jar, felt, and few other supplies.
Approximate Time: About 30 minutes.
Supplies:
pint jar
white felt
pink felt
wiggly eyes
black marker
3 chenille stems
pink pom pom or pink cotton ball
white cotton ball
scrap piece of cardboard or poster board
pencil
scissors
hot glue gun and glue sticks
Instructions:
Draw a bunny head, including the neck onto a piece of thin cardboard or poster board; cut out the design. Using this as a template, trace around the head onto a piece of white felt; cut out.
Glue felt head to cardboard template and set aside.
For arms, draw a football shape onto cardboard that measures approximately 4 1/2 inches wide by 11 inches long; cut out. Using this as a template, trace around arms onto a piece of white felt; cut out.
Glue felt arms around jar; they will overlap slightly in front.
Draw an inner ear onto piece of cardboard; cut out. Using this as a template, trace around inner ear onto pink felt twice; cut out both pieces and glue to inside of bunny's ears.
Glue on wiggly eyes, chenille stem whiskers, and pom pom nose.
Use black marker to draw on the paws and to draw on a mouth.
Glue the neck of the bunny inside the jar to hold in place.
Glue white cotton ball at the bottom center on back of the jar for the tail.

Here is a frugal but elegant way to decorate using plastic Easter eggs -- place them in a glass jar and weave a ribbon through. I already had these items in my house and didn't have to spend any money to make a cute centerpiece.
