Add a little cuteness to your child’s outfit (or even your own!) with this floral bunny headband, perfect for spring and Easter celebrations. We've used pastel blooms to create the bunny headband in this project, but any blooms can be used to suit your preferred colour scheme.

Step 1

Gather your supplies to cover the copper bunny headband, headband, wadding, cotton thread, ribbon and scissors.

Step 2

Cut a 2” strip of wadding 45” long, double it over to make it thicker.

Step 3

Wrap the loose ends around the base of one of the ears and secure in position by wrapping and tying thread around it.

Step 4

Tightly wrap the ear outline in the wadding, securing the wadding on the other side of the ear by wrapping it around the base that ear, use the thread tie a knot to keep it in place. Wrap the wadding over the band between the two ears and then around the base of the next ear.

Step 5

Continue to wrap the wadding around this ear and finish by wrapping it around the base on the other side. Wrap thread around the end and tie tightly to keep the wadding in place.

Step 6

Step 7

Using a hot glue gun, attach the end of the ribbon to the end of the headband. Conceal the end by wrapping the ribbon over the it.

Step 8

Wrap the ribbon around the base to secure it and work along the headband to the next ear. Once again, start wrapping the furthest side of the next ear first, making sure you overlap the ribbon neatly. No wadding should be visible. Work your way up the ear, over the top and down the inside of the ear. Wrap around the base and along the headband down to the bottom.

Step 10

Gather your floral supplies

Step 11

Using wire cutters, cut off and trim down three stems of eucalyptus, cut the heads from the hydrangea/daisy pick leaving short stems, pull the plastic stems, leaves and heads from two daisy picks and use three dried lily flowers.

Step 12

Insert wire stems of eucalyptus under the ribbon at the base of just one ear, on the front side of the headband insert two and one on the back of the same ear. If inserting the stem isn’t possible use hot glue to attach it.

Step 13

Glue additional eucalyptus leaves and leaves from daisy picks to the headband to form a base on which to attach the flowers. Do this to the front and back of the headband to give an asymmetrical look

Step 14

Glue the focal flowers in position first - in this case the dried lily flowers - two on the front and one on the back.

Step 15

Now start to build up the floral cluster by adding in the flowers from the daisy and the hydrangea pick.

Step 16

Glue the smaller daisies in the gaps and to the sides, keeping the design asymmetrical. Once the glue has set, the bunny ears are then ready to wear!
