Knitted Bunny Bottle Topper


Hey everyone,  Spring is almost here!  Even though the cold weather makes it feel like we are in the middle of Winter,  I couldn't hold it any longer I needed to begin doing something more Spring-ish ;)  I know, I know, I need to finish those bookcases, but I was waiting for the fireplace/heater to be delivered and that garage is sooo cold to go to work in there.

Like two weeks ago, I took my son to a birthday party, while waiting for the party to finish I went to a nearby PB store and these guys stole my heart: Knitted Bunny Bottle toppers (fuff that's a hard one for me to pronounce!)  I loved them but not the price, like ten bucks each one, I think.

Pottery Barn

So, time to do my own cheaper version! Ha I didn't knit a thing (I wish I knew how to).  Old thrift store sweaters and a hat were my cheat.



Easy ear patterns and lots of cutting.


Lots and lots of ears and squared buddies



This project can be done using a glue gun but I chose the sewing machine.



Using embroidery thread the eyes, nose and whiskers were done.



And they multiplied just like perfect little bunnies do!




I got fuzzy ones, chunky ones...



And not only white ones but grey ones too.



Let's see the whole bunch again: Smokey, Cupcake, Jack, Shadow, Snowball, Buttercup, Buttons and Snow White :)



Not in the picture: Stormy  ;)


My blogging friend Betty @ Maddiebella Home, with her "assistant's" help, created another cute variation of these bunny bottle toppers to be displayed at her Kid's Whimsical Easter Table. Isn't it beautiful. Check it out right HERE.


Have a great day!
XOXO-

  10. Christina, these are soooo cute. At first when I saw the title and not being a knitter I was trying to think of someone to send the post to so I could get one. Then I read on to see I could in fact make these. You're not just mad talented in construction but the softer things to. You Rock Lady.

  21. These are SO ADORABLE! I saw these at PB as well but I never spend the money on holiday decor (aside from Christmas) just because I always have so many other projects I want to spend my funds on. These completely solve that! I love that you didn't knit either and used thrift finds...so darn cute!
