No-Sew Burlap Bunnies and Flowers

Thursday:  Yeah!  Another Creation!

I about fell over when I saw these bunnies on Oopsey Daisy (with a tutorial) last week.
I had to make them!
I waited a week because I didn't want to get my sewing machine out to make them.  
Then I remembered the glue gun!
Hallelujah!
(me dancing)

I followed Oopsey Daisy's tutorial (thanks) and used the glue gun where she said to sew.  Instead of stuffing the bunnies with beans, I stuffed them with stuffing - ha ha.


Then I used a sharpie to color the eyes and nose and a crayon for the ears and cheeks.
So easy and oh so cute!

They are so cute in their little homes (cans).






I love the flower bow. 
Here's a small tutorial on these no-sew burlap flowers.



Steps...
1. I made a lopsided cloud to use as my pattern and cut out four scraps.


2.  Put a dot of hot glue in the center and fold over (top left).
3.  Put another dot in the new center and fold over again (top right).
4.  Glue it onto a felt circle (I used paper here and then switched to felt).


5.  Continue with the other three scraps until you have a flower (top right).
6.  Make a smaller lopsided pattern for your pretty fabric and follow steps 1-5 (bottom).
7. Glue the pretty fabric on top of the burlap flower and add a button.


How cute is that!


I got a little carried away and made lots of hair flowers.  
I just glued hair clips onto the back of them.


Even my teenage daughter swiped one for herself on the way to school.


Happy Bunny Family


They're rockin' on top of my antique radio.
I am in love....
