Bunny Pins & Basket

How to make a basket from an envelope.
It was to seal an envelope and cut through the center 2/3 of the
envelope, a rabbit ear shape.
Square off the bottom 1/3 not straight but slightly diagonal cuts toward
the base of the ear. Draw eyes and facial features ....when opened it
is a cute basket and looks like a rabbit. Madeline

Ps..I did this one with my daughter and it's realy cute..
the ears are the handle of the basket. Luci

I have made "rabbits" with the flat clothes pins using the body of the
clothes pin for the feet, and body, the long thin parts for the ears.
Drawn with a permenent marker. Regular size clothes pins make a nice
magnet, and the mini clothes pins make a pretty pin. These can be
painted in any pastel spring color or left natural.


Wooden Spoon bunny:

If you can find the wooden spoons which have a spoon shape and a handle.
Glueing just the spoon section so they overlap.
Paint the glued spoons white, the handles become the ears, paint or
color the center pink, then glue a pompom for a nose and paste on eyes,
depending on spoon size these could be made into magnets or pins.
