Easter Bunny in the Grass Spring Wreath for our Easter Mantel
I will show you how to recreate my spring wreath that is perfect for Easter!
I didn’t make it until most of the mantel was already done.
I had a big blank space that I wasn’t quite sure what to do with.
But after some pinterest-inspiration I ended up creating this bad boy.
My Easter Bunny in the Grass Spring Wreath.
And I love how it turned out….
To make this seasonal wreath I used:
– 4″ natural burlap ribbon with frayed edges (from BB Crafts)
– 2″ green and white wired chevron ribbon
– Pink Ric Rac ribbon
– Green eyelash yarn (from The Dollar Tree)
– Mini Foam Easter Eggs (from Dollarama)
– Small white ceramic bunny (from The Dollar Tree)
– Grapevine wreath (not pictured)
– Glue gun and glue
– Scissors
Start by wrapping the wreath form in the natural burlap ribbon. I used a grapevine wreath form and it turned out a little lumpy… next time around I would probably go with a smooth foam form instead. Live and learn.
Once the whole form was wrapped in the burlap ribbon I added some pink ric rac to the top 2/3 of the Easter wreath. I also added a double bow to the top of the wreath using the green and white chevron ribbon. (This ribbon is so pretty! I ordered it in several shades and can’t wait to make another wreath with it).
Then I wrapped the bottom 1/3 of the wreath in the green eyelash yarn.
When the whole she-bang was wrapped I simply hot glued the bunny and foam Easter eggs to the grassy area. Done!
I love how it finishes off our Easter Mantel…
I can’t wait to show you the rest of the spring mantel next week… along with our whole spring house tour. Woot woot!

Adorable! My favorite is the ceramic bunny. I’m kicking myself for getting rid of a ton of rabbits a couple of moves ago. ;(
