DIY Magical Easter Peeps Wands

by - 10:30:00 AM

Sizzix felt is perfect for creating fun wands! I created these two-sided Peeps wands--one side has a cute fluffy pom pom bunny tail, and the other side is decorated with a little daisy cabochon. Or you can turn these into a cute banner!

Handmade Peeps inspired wands, created with felt, pom poms, Poly-fil, ribbons, wooden dowels and flower cabochons.

To create these wands, start by die cutting two of the Scrapbook.com Nested Peeps dies from Sizzix felt. Hand sew a coordinating pom pom onto one of the felt bunnies. (Need the Sizzix felt fast? Order expedited shipping from Scrapbook.com or it on Amazon with Prime delivery!)

Then pin the two felt cuts together and sew along the edges, leaving the bottom of the bunny open. Pro Tip: As you remove pins while sewing, use your Gotcha Stand to hand

Stuff the bunny with Poly-fil fiber, using a wooden dowel to help push the Poly-fil into the ears.

Cut 4 coordinating ribbons and 2 contrasting ribbons to 20 inches long. Using craft tape, attach these ribbons to one end of a wooden dowel.

Apply hot glue to the dowel where the ribbons are attached and push it into the opening on the bottom of the bunny. Add additional hot glue along the opening of the bunny and press to seal it closed.

Cut 2 contrasting ribbons to 40 inches long and tie 2 bows on the dowel at the bottom of the bunny--one bow facing to the front and one bow facing to the back of the bunny.

With hot glue, add an optional cabochon flower or paper flower to your bunny. (For paper flowers, I recommend using the Prima Marketing In Full Bloom Petite Petals flowers.)

I hope that you enjoyed this quick and easy Easter and spring craft! Until next time, happy crafting!
