How To Make a Pom-Pom Bunny Rabbit Craft Step-By-Step

Materials

You will need:

Step 1 – Print the Template

Print and cut out your chosen template, either directly onto colored paper for a vibrant look or on white paper to color and customize yourself. For a sturdier bunny, I recommend using cardstock.

Step 2 – Color and Cut your Bunny

If you printed your bunny on white paper, go ahead and color it however you like. Then, carefully cut along the dotted lines—just a small slit, enough to insert the yarn without cutting too much.

Step 3 – Make your Yarn Pom-Pom

Take a fork, a piece of cardboard, or use your hand as a base. Wrap the yarn around it at least 50–100 times (the more wraps, the fluffier the pom-pom).

Carefully slide the wrapped yarn off the base. Cut a separate piece of yarn (about 8 inches long) and tie it tightly around the middle of the bundle, securing it with a double knot.

Step 4 – Tie your Pom-Pom to the Bunny

Take a piece of yarn approximately 6 inches long and position its center into the small slits you cut on the bunny. Make sure the yarn is evenly placed, with about 2.5 inches hanging down on each side. This will help secure the pom-pom in place.

Using scissors, snip through all the loops on both sides of the tied yarn to create the pom-pom shape.

Fluff out the pom-pom by rolling it in your hands, then use scissors to trim any uneven strands until you have a nice, round shape.

Step 5 – Add the Finishing Touches

Feel free to get creative and add as many finishing touches as you’d like to make your pom-pom bunny unique! Attach googly eyes for a fun, playful look, or use markers, crayons, or stickers to draw a cute bunny face. You can also write “Happy Easter” on its body, ears, or a small sign for a festive touch.

Add a tiny pom-pom or a cotton ball for a fluffy tail, glue on pipe cleaners for whiskers, or even tie a ribbon around its neck for an extra charming detail. Let your imagination run wild and make your bunny one-of-a-kind!
