Easter Bunny Cotton Ball Photo Footprint Craft

This adorable Easter Bunny Cotton Ball Photo Footprint Craft turns your little one into the cutest Easter bunny on the block! It takes just a few items from the craft store, a picture and about 10 minutes to create.

This little Easter Bunny Photo Footprint Craft DIY of Jackson is from his first Easter (last year) and I still have it hanging on my fridge because I love it so much. It was so quick to make and just turned out darling!

I even made one for my sister in law and my mom!

I originally just saw this idea on Facebook and it just had a photos with no directions so I just kind of had to figure it out. But it looks like a few other bloggers have made this kind of craft too (like Making thing Awesome & Thriving Home ) so I’m not exactly sure who to credit the idea to or where it originally came from.

It reminds me of a craft we made in either pre-school when I was little.

What you’ll need:

• Cotton Balls
• White Foam Sheets (2)
• Craft Paint
• White glue
• A photo of your child
• Scissors
• Pencil and Paper
• A glass to trace to cut out the face
• Stick on Magnets

Step One – Painting Feet:

Use the paint to paint the bottom of child’s feet. Use a paint brush or a cotton ball.

While paint is wet, press each foot onto 1 piece of white foam.

Also paint two small patches on the foam for the ears.

Let dry.

 Draw the bunny:

No need for this bunny to be perfect.

On a piece of notebook paper draw a circle for the head, an oval for the body and two ears. Use this to trace the bunny onto the 2nd foam sheet.

Like I said, no need for it to be perfect because it is going to be covered with cotton balls anyways.

The Photo:

You’ll need somewhere of a close up shot of your kid for this project. I just snapped a new photos of Jackson with my phone, uploaded them to Walgreens and had them so the 1-hour photo printing when I made these.

Target, CVS and Walmart also normally have 1 hour photo printing too.  

Just cut out the face.

I used a glass as a guide so it would be a circle.

Then glue the face onto the face of the bunny.

The Cotton balls!

Apply a layer of white glue all over the foam and start sticking on the cotton balls. Cover the entire bunny with cotton balls.

Ears and Feet:

Some of the tutorials I found this year get you to use feet for the ears too but I thought that was just too much. So I just cut out little pieces of painted foam to go inside of the cotton ball ears on Jackson’ bunny and then I glued his feet to the bunny as it’s feet.

Then you’re done! OR if you want to you can add sticky magnets to the back to make this into a magnet for the fridge which it what I did. I love it so much!
