Making The Spring Bunny Wreath Craft

_______
First, cut the center from a paper plate.
Next, punch flowers, butterflies, and circles from spring-colored cardstock. Using a glue stick, adhere contrasting circle centers to some of the flowers.
Then glue butterflies and flowers around the paper plate rim.
Trace and cut a bunny head from white or tan cardstock. (A white bunny is perfect for Easter, but a grey or brown one will take the craft into spring.) Download this free template if desired.

Lastly, adhere the paper bunny to the bottom back of the wreath using white glue or a glue gun.

Adding The Jelly Bean Necklace
For a unique crafting experience, make a colorful and tasty jelly bean necklace for the bunny:
- Pull a long piece of thread through a sturdy sewing needle.
- Thread on jelly beans in a pattern of choice, or add them randomly.
- Tie off the ends of the thread when the necklace is the desired length.
- String the necklace around the bunny’s neck.

_______
Tip: For young children, the necklace could be prepared in advance. Or little learners could dictate which color jellybeans to thread on a necklace as you make one for them.

Making this jelly bean necklace was easier than I thought it would be. I was sure that I would poke my fingers more than once. But thankfully I didn’t!

The spring colors in the wreath are so welcome at a time of year when some days are bright and sunny, but others are grey and overcast. And I’m so ready for flowers and butterflies since we’ve had more than our share of snow this year!
