Hi friends,
We made Chick & Bunny Bookmarks with paint, felt, and pom poms. Easter is around the corner and these bookmarks work great in Easter baskets, gifted books, in planters, and as place settings. Check out our bookmarks below!

What You'll Need
Large Craft Sticks
White & Yellow Craft Paints
Paint Brushes
(2 x 3 in.)White Felt
(1) Yellow Pom Pom
Hot Glue or Elmers Glue
Scissors
Orange, Pink, Black Markers
The Steps
Paint your craft sticks in yellow, white, pink, grey, or black and use matching felt or pom poms, depending on which animal you make.
PREP
1. Turn your felt horizontally and cut a 1 x 2-inch piece out(save the extra for the body). 2. Use the hot glue to glue it in half, but leave the cut end slightly open.
EARS
Cut out 2 bunny ears with the open ends at the bottom and 2 small ovals for the feet.
Spread the bottom of the bunny ears open and glue on top of the white craft stick.
FACE
With the black marker add eyes & mouth and with the pink add a nose, details to the ears, and feet(below).
BODY
Use the extra piece of felt to cut 2 tall domes, about 1 x 1.5 inches.
Then fold 1 dome in half and cut out an opening for the face, save the cut out piece.
Glue the front piece of felt and the feet, then the back piece & tail (previously cut out piece bunched up ).
That’s it!
Chick
Cut the pom pom in half and separate some.
Use the black and orange markers to make the eyes and beak.
Glue a bit of the yellow fuzz to the head, under the beak, and to the back.
Last, add 2 little feet under the yellow fuzz.
That’s it!
Aren’t these adorable?!
Happy crafting!
