Easter Bunny: Step 1

Paint the mache egg with pink acrylic paint and allow to dry. You will need 2 – 3 coats of paint, allowing each coat to dry before applying the next.

Easter Bunny: Step 2
Cut four bunny ear shapes from felt. Glue two ear shapes together with PVA glue – this makes the ears more rigid and able to stand upright.
Easter Bunny: Step 3
Cut two smaller inner bunny ear shapes from white felt and glue on to the pink ear shapes. Once dry, position and glue the bunny ears to the mache egg shape.
Easter Bunny: Step 4
Position and glue two googly eyes and a pom pom nose on to the face of the bunny. Use a black sharpie fine liner to draw on the whiskers.
Easter Chick: Step 1

Paint the mache egg with yellow acrylic paint and allow to dry. You will need 2 – 3 coats of paint, allowing each coat to dry before applying the next.

Easter Chick: Step 2
For the wings, position and glue two yellow feathers to each side of the mache egg. Glue one larger feather to the back so that the top of the feather peeps over the top.
Easter Chick: Step 3
Position and glue on two googly eyes. Use a black sharpie fine liner to draw on a small triangle beak.
