Heart Shaped Bunny Craft Idea
SO SWEET! These fun little craft foam valentine bunnies are quick, easy and ideal for making with children! Simply grab some basic craft foam and paper doily heart shapes from your local craft store & add a few embellishments to bring them to life!
You could even experiment with your own ideas and make them come to life with materials you already have on hand. I opted for a traditional pink, red and white color scheme, but you could tailor your designs to fit paper scraps you might have on hand already.
Maybe even tailor your designs to the recipients “if” you decide to give your finished bunny pieces away as clever valentines. The possibilities are endless for this Valentine’s Day themed tutorial and I hope we inspired you today!
Find ALL the details you need to know, in the full step-by-step tutorial below! These heart shaped bunnies are super fun to make and I’m extra positive you are going to have some awesome memories making them with your child! Happy crafting, my dear friends!

Looking for a fun and easy craft project to do with your kids this Valentine’s Day? Look no further than our tutorial for a craft foam bunny!
Craft Supplies:
- Craft Foam Heart Shapes
- Paper Heart Doilies
- Cardstock Paper
- Basic Craft Scissors
- Stapler or Glue School
Directions:
- First decide the color scheme you want for your bunny. Remember, this is the fun part of the craft and where the creativity really shines! You don’t have to stick to the traditional Valentine’s Day colors either!
- Once you have the vision, it’s time to start pulling out the various materials. You will want ONE foam heart, ONE paper heart doily and a little bit of regular craft paper for EACH bunny you want to make today.
- Lay your craft foam heart on the table. Other than decorating it, you won’t be doing any cutting to it.
- Grab your paper heart doily and cut it in half. Straight up the center to make TWO ears for your bunny.
- Now grab all your paper pieces and the scissors again.
- Cut out a heart shaped nose, some big cheeks, circular eyes, some pieces for in the bunny’s ears, etc. Use our pictures for an example.
- The final step is assembling. Grab ALL your paper cutouts and choice of adhesive {I stapled most of my paper pieces to my craft foam shape.}
- Start off by securing the paper doily ears to the back of the craft foam shape. I highly suggest stapling them!
- Follow that up by gluing on the cheeks, as well as the eyes and nose to the craft foam heart shape.
- At this point in time set aside your finished heart shaped bunny piece to let it dry completely.
- You can also choose to add on other embellishments to give it that “dazzle” for Valentine’s Day. Maybe add some small bows or heart shaped stickers.
- And that’s it! Don’t forget to share pictures of what you create on your various social media sites! #gluedtomycrafts

Customize It:
- For instant party decorations, place tape to the back of each finished piece to adhere to a wall or add string to your pieces to create a nice festive Valentine’s Day garland.
- You can also add some extra large popsicle sticks to the back of your finished pieces for puppet play or even for a Valentine’s Day photo booth.
- I also mention above that these would make for adorable classroom valentines. Just write on the back of your finished pieces, with a Sharpie marker and then give away to the lucky recipient!
