    I'm going to be making some flannel rabbits that someone posted a link to ages ago - not sure who or where.

    Made a trial one for DD for xmas as she is rabbit mad and he is soooo cute.
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Not my poem, can't find anyone to give the credit to though, sorry.
    Easter Bunny Soup
    Anyone can have easter eggs
    Or ice cream that you scoop.
    But because you are very special,
    I am sending you this Bunny Soup.
    Take the packet of chocolate "broth"
    Add hot water and marshmallows too.
    Then stir it up with a peppermint stick.
    It's a treat from the Easter Bunny, just for you.

    Last time I did some bunny poop, don't take notice of the poem:o I changed it as it was for 17, 21 and 27 year olds.

    Also made some felt carrots with little eggs in.

    And knitted and crocheted these and stuffed them with a cadbury's egg.

    I put everything in a basket and added some easter eggs.

    Thanks mary.
    The bunny poop is just a cello bag which I filled with choc coated toffees - could use those choc peanuts and raisins too. I folded the bag over and sealed it, printed a bag topper from the web then added the words probably using paint on my computer? can't quite remember. Printed it on card folded it in half and stapled the bag in between it at the top.
    I can't find any free bag toppers for Easter at the mo but I'll bet they'll be some around soon.
    I know my poem wasn't so nice but there is a lot of nicer bunny poop poems here.

    I will keep looking for printables though.

    Hope I made sense.

    Soblivion - love your Easter gifts :T

    I made some cross stitched Easter cards this year and hope to make some more next year. Also may have a go at flannel chicks or bunnies.
