*Bunny Instructions: Refer to project photo for design placement.

3. Tear or cut 2” pieces of White tape & place on Bunny, overlapping each piece to cover body & feet.

4. For Bunny Ears: Bend chenille stem to make loop & twist one end around the other to secure, leaving a 1” end. Cover loop with White tape. Follow outline of ear shape, trimming excess tape away with scissors. Repeat for second ear. Punch two holes at top of head with awl or knitting needle. Insert ears in holes.

5. Cut three 6” lengths of chenille stem for whiskers. Glue whiskers to face. Glue eyes, nose, cheeks, & tail to Bunny, following photo for placement.

6. Cut daisy head & leaves away from stem, glue daisy & leaves between ears.



*Chick Instructions: Refer to project photo for design placement.

3. Cut a 3” heart shape from Orange foam for feet & glue to Chick.

4. Cut a small triangle shape from Orange foam for beak & glue to Chick. Draw two small strokes side by side with marker for nostrils. Glue eyes to Chick. Reference photo for placement.

5. With awl, pre-punch holes where needed to insert feathers for wings, tails, & one feather on top of head. Use as many feathers as desired. Option: Before placing feather into hole, dip end of feather into glue to further anchor into Chick body.



My six year old Gabriel had fun with these Easter projects, although these definitely require adult supervision. So if you’re looking to get creative with duck tape, these projects are quite easy to make and are great ways to bond with your kids! 🙂

I will be featuring more Easter crafts this week, courtesy of A.C. Moore! So stay tuned in!
