Easter can be so much fun with all of the Easter treats, egg hunts, fun decor, and just the beautiful springtime colors!

Can I use a Plastic Flower Pot?

While terra cotta flower pots work best with this craft, you can certainly use a plastic flower pot instead. Just make sure you are using acrylic paint or other paint that is designed to work on plastic.

You will also want to make sure the glue you use for the pot works with the plastic as well.

I’ve been known to use a number of different types of containers and pots for this kind of project. While I prefer my terra cotta pots, you could use really any container to make a cute bunny.

If you want a craft that doesn’t include painting, make this rice-filled sock bunny, or how to make a bunny out of a towel. Both are super fun crafts that are ideal for Easter decor.

Ways to Display This Upcycled Flower Pot

There are endless ways to use this as part of your Easter decor this year! With just a few adjustments, it can go from being a dining table centerpiece to a fun accent on your bookcase.

Use it to decorate windows sills or as a centerpiece for the table. Put a few of the bunny pots on the fireplace mantle. I love that these will also look adorable as decorations for the front porch or along the walkway.

Add this old book Easter garland to the mix for a fun rustic look that goes well with the burlap ears on this bunny.

Another fun idea to use this Easter Bunny decoration for is with the baskets. Easter morning when the baskets are set up, these cute Easter Bunny decorations can be placed side by side the baskets.

Supplies Needed

How to Make an Upcycled Flower Pot Easter Bunny

Start by painting your terra cotta flower pot white. Set the flower pot aside to dry.

Now, cut out 2 ears shapes from the burlap.

Using the burlap as templates, cut out 2 white ear shapes slightly smaller than the burlap ears.

Now, you will glue these together.

Attach the ears to the back of the flower pot as shown with the opening of the pot facing downward.

Add a pink bow or ribbon between the ears.

Now, you will glue on the googly eyes.

Add a few pieces of twine with a pink pom pom for nose and whiskers.

Using a black marker, draw on the smile.

Now you can use this as a table display, added to kids Easter baskets, or even on the mantle!

Crafter Tip:

To save time, you can purchase white flower pots from Amazon or your local craft center. You can also use plastic flower pots or any canister or can for this project if you prefer.
