Towel Bunny: Step-by-step instructions with photos and comments

For this and all our instructions, we ensure that all materials are easy to obtain – ideally at the nearest supermarket or craft store. For the towel bunny, you only need a simple, thin guest towel. The thinner the towel, the easier it is to fold and shape – a little trick that makes a big difference!

If you're crafting with small children, make sure to assist when securing the shape – especially when using elastic bands or glue.

You need:

  • 1 small, thin guest towel (about 30 x 30 cm or 40 x 40 cm)
  • 1 household rubber band or small hair tie
  • Wiggly eyes and a piece of felt or paper for the face (optional)
  • possibly some hot glue or double-sided tape

Step 1: As seen in the first image, we start by preparing the towel. Place your blue towel diagonally and fold it into a triangle (top right). Next, fold it lengthwise and roll it so that a sharp angle is formed in the middle (bottom left). Finally, tie the towel together with a rubber band and shape the head with the ears by letting the ends point upward (bottom right).

Step 2: In the second image, you can see how the finished bunny should look. Attach the wiggly eyes and the red nose to the front part of the head. Ensure that the ears stand upright and have a nice shape. Your fluffy towel bunny is now finished and ready to enhance your Easter decorations!
