If you love celebrating Easter, theseDIY Easter Sock Bunniesare perfect for you!
It can be a great upcycle, class, or casual fun project for a rainy afternoon.

I hope you enjoy these sweet, colorful sock bunnies as much as I do!
Now, on to the post!
Work the ankle area over the top of the cupthis makes putting rice in the sock way easier.
This cup acts solely as a catch-all and a safer way to pour rice into a sock.
Add a shallow pan beneath the cup if needed for even more security.
Step 2.As mentioned, now is the time to add the uncooked rice.
The size of the bunny will depend on how large your sock, cup, and amount of rice.
I highly recommend having all these parts figured out before assembly begins!
Step 3.Take one rubberband and secure the top of the sock so the rice stays put.
verify to use a rubberband that wont budge easily to ensure your rabbits life span.
Step 4.Once the top is secured, work another band onto the body after shaping a head.
This rubber band will maintain most of the bunnys silhouette, so double-check its flexible.
These rubber bands should be tight enough that you wont have to manipulate them once the head is formed.
Looping them over once or twice works as well.
Step 5.This next step is optional but adds a sweet pop and adorableness!
Youll grab another rubber band and secure it on the backside to create a tail.
Shape it similarly to the head but smaller.
Step 6.Prep the top of your sock, above the first rubber banded area, for ears.
Fan the area or rearrange it so its sitting nicely for cutting.
Trim and shape the ears as needed.
Step 8.Finally, the fun partfacial features and accessories!
Sometimes, I like to cover all aspects of the rubber bands with various scraps of fabrics or props.
A good tipuse a fabric marker for a smoother program!
The last thing you want is a jumpy smile for your bunny or bunnies.
Once decorating is done, you have your darling and adorable DIY Easter Sock Bunny!
Perfect for casual home decor, presents to loved ones, or easy tablescape configs.
