Looking for super easy spring decorating projects that are inexpensive? Here is an easy way to reuse old drop cloths and create Drop Cloth Bunnies for your Spring Home Decor.

Hi there, Sweet Friends, remember last month, when I joined the Pinterest Organization Challenge and created my “Spindle Carrots for Spring Decor?“

Well, this month the Pinterest Challenge is Spring Crafts/DIY Projects again! I don’t know about you but I cannot get enough of Spring right now. I am loving the warm nights where it stays a little lighter longer and the temps are warmer.  A big thanks to Erlene at My Pinterventures. Erlene is our leader for this monthly series, so please be sure to check out her blog…it is full of great stuff.

PINTEREST CHALLENGE – SPRING/ CRAFT DIY!

In case you’re new to the blog, the purpose of the Pinterest Challenge is to motivate all the participants (and you too) to not just pin, but to make it happen! This month’s challenge is about Spring Crafts/DIY Projects, so I chose Drop Cloth Bunnies.

Today, I’m joining a bunch of Bloggers on a Pinterest Spring Crafts/DIY Project. I went searching on Pinterest to look for Spring Crafts/DIY Project ideas and I was inspired by this pin. Michelle from Michelle James Designs inspired me to create Drop Cloth Bunnies. I don’t sew and I love to paint and all my drop cloths were paint stained. In this post is my version of Painted Drop Cloth Bunnies!

Here is the DIY on “How to Create Painted Drop Cloth Bunnies!” Look around your home as you could possibly have all of these items in your home. If you need something, links are provided. I appreciate you shopping on CreateWithCynthiaShop.com.

Materials Needed for the Painted Drop Cloth Bunnies:

  • Old or New Drop Cloths
  • Paint and Sealer and I used Debi’s Design Diary DIY Paint!
  • Ribbon
  • Paint Brush, Scissors, and a Hot Glue Gun
  • Little Rocks or Sand

Instructions on How to Create Painted Drop Cloth Bunnies!

Step one: Use a pattern or free hand bunny figures onto the drop cloth with a marker.

Step two: Cut out your bunnies.

Step three: Cut strips of drop cloth approximately 1×6 inches for the stuffing.

Step four: Use the Glue Gun and put your bunny together.

Step five: Add rocks or sand to add weight to the bottom of the bunny. This will allow the bunny to stand on it’s own.

Step six: Paint and seal your bunny.

Bunnies are for decorative purposes only and not to be given to pets or children.

Step seven: Add a ribbon to your bunny.

    Your folded ear bunnies are my favorite! Such a whimsical look. I like the idea of weighting the bottom. Never thought of that before.
