The Materials Needed:
Terra Cotta Pot Bunny:
* One Terra Cotta Pot – any size, one per bunny craft
* White Craft Paint

Step-By-Step Directions:
* First turn your terra cotta pot upside down on a large paper plate.
* Have your child paint their pot completely white for a bunny or yellow for a baby chick.
* Next – go ahead and paint on the designed facial features on your painted pot piece. For the chick you will do a small orange triangle nose and black dotted eyes, while for the bunny you will do a heart shaped pink nose and some black dotted eyes.
* When done painting, aside your pieces to allow them to dry completely.
* At this point in time the baby chick craft is done.
* For the bunny, while the paint is drying, grab your white cardstock and cut out two white ears.
* Use the Sharpie marker to give these two pieces some dimension and draw in some pink inside the eyes.
* Next get your glue gun hot and ready.
* Hot glue the ears to the white painted pot.
* And that’s it! At this point in time, you should also add any other embellishments that you see fit and like.
* Then display proudly for all to see!
