Decor
These cute fabric eggs would make a great group project if you are planning to have a crowd over for Easter. It’s also something you can work on while watching TV or relaxing. They are so quick to make that you’ll have a dozen completed in no time, ready to use for decorating a table or Easter tree. Poly-Fil® Ultra Plush Fiber Fill is at the heart of this sweet little project.
This no sew project (use fabric glue or hot glue) is a speedy way to make an adorable banner to decorate your home with for Easter. Use any scrap fabric on hand with the template to cut out cute bunnies that are fluffed out with a bit of Fiber Fill. If you want the bunnies to stay flat, cut them out of felt or paper and use a tuft of Fiber Fill to make the cute little cottontail.
These sock bunny gnomes are adorable and don’t take long to make! The bunnies are perfect for Easter, and the gnome aspect makes this decor something that can be enjoyed all spring long! Poly Pellets® give these cute sock bunny gnomes just the right amount of weight to keep them from tipping over.
Gifts
Little ones will be delighted with this adorable plush carrot that they can play with long after Easter is over. It’s a great stash buster, giving you the chance to use up any orange and green scraps of yarn you have around. A few pinches of Poly-Fil Fiber Fill will give this cute carrot a soft, squishy core.
This quick project is another great scrap buster! Quick Craft Poly Pellets® Weighted Stuffing Beads are the perfect size for cute little crafts like this one. Make a bunch of bunnies to fill baskets with, or use them as part of DIY cornhole or other fun games during your Easter festivities!
These itty bitty felt bunny plushies are just the right size for filling Easter eggs with! Who wouldn’t be delighted to receive a sweet little handmade rabbit plush? The small size makes these gifts easy to whip up. The tutorial includes a free pattern and complete instructions.
