How to Make a DIY Bunny Wreath
Every “bunny” deserves a fresh new look! This little DIY bunny wreath idea is more of a repurposed makeover project.
This simple little bunny wreath was given a whole new look with the addition of a few simple materials. He was pretty cute, to begin with, but now he’s next-level!
Craft Supplies to Make this DIY Easter Wreath:
You can find the items to create this DIY project at your local craft store or at the links below.
- Grapevine bunny wreath form
- Moss
- Faux spring vining plant
- White berry stems
- Off-white wood flowers
- Burlap bow or ribbon
- Hot glue gun and glue sticks
- Floral Wire
- Rubber gloves
Step-by-Step Process:
To make this DIY bunny wreath, I started with a grapevine bunny form I already owned. It was very similar to this grapevine bunny wreath.
1. First, I deconstructed the wreath, being sure to save the small white berry picks and burlap bow to use again.
2. The second step in my process was gluing on the wood flowers to the front side of the bunny form. I used this bag of wood flowers which contained a variety of styles and sizes of wood flowers.
I first planned out the arrangement of my flowers around the head body of the bunny. I used a hot glue gun to adhere the flowers to the grapevine wreath.
If you like this wood flower spring craft, you might also enjoy this spring floral art project I made using these wood flowers.
I left the bunny ears as is, leaving the natural grapevine exposed to provide a little contast to the floral head and body.
3. After the flowers were attached, I covered the sides of the exposed areas of the grapevine wreath with moss.
I simply added a small amount of hot glue and filled in the gaps around the flowers on the front of the wreath.
I then covered the exposed sides of the wreath form with the moss. It was very easy to tuck the pieces of moss in and around the wood flowers. I do recommend wearing rubber gloves for this messy process.
4. Tuck small pieces of a faux spring vining plant into the flowers around the bunny wreath. This touch of spring greenery softens the look of the wreath and adds a fresh touch.
I used the hot glue gun to attach the vine pieces.
5. Finally, I added the small berry stems and burlap bow that I saved from the original deconstructed bunny wreath.
The small “pearlized” white berries tucked in around the wood flowers really dress up the bunny, and the burlap bow adds the perfect finishing touch!
If you don’t have a pre-made burlap bow, you can tie your own basic bow using burlap ribbon.
I used the hot glue gun to attach the berry stems around the flowers. I attached the burlap bow to the neck of the bunny using a bit of hot glue in the center of the bow. You can also use floral wire to reinforce it if you prefer.
Now this little bunny is all dressed up and ready to greet our guests!
Other Ways to Decorate the Bunny Wreath Form:
There so many fun variations you can make to this simple bunny wreath idea.
- Add small Easter eggs around the bunny form.
- Glue colorful faux flowers around the wreath.
- Cover the bunny with fuzzy pom poms
- Cover the wreath form with colorful buttons.
- Embellish the bunny with wood slices for a rustic look.
- Wrap the bunny form in yarn.
Where to Hang the Spring Bunny Wreath:
This DIY bunny wreath is a nice neutral color, so he’s quite versatile and can be used to decorate a variety of places for spring!
Of course I hung him on our front door to brighten up our front porch and greet our guests as they arrive. I love how pretty this little guy looks against out blue front door (painted Sherwin-Williams Endless Sea).
He’s also very cute layered over the twin mirrors on the wall in our breakfast area, where we can enjoy him in our kitchen.
As you can see, this cute bunny wreath is quite the versatile piece of spring decor around our home!
