I didn’t have paper cups on hand so I used plastic cups for my project since I’m so thrifty and love making the best of what I own already. But I think using paper cups will give you sturdier cups and work better with the glue gun; my plastic cups melted a bit in the whiskers area so I used 2 at a time.
So what are you waiting for? This Easter, make the kids hopping with excitement with these super easy Easter bunny cups. Great to use for treats, snacks or egg hunting!

Tips & tricks
- If you’re using paper cups, it might be a good idea to use a glue gun to help keep the bunny’s whiskers in place.
- Be careful not to burn yourself when using the glue gun.
- Make sure the plastic or paper cups are completely dry before starting this project, or the glue won’t stick.
- You can also use hot glue to stick the googly eyes onto the bunny cups.
- If you’re using plastic cups, it might be a good idea to use two cups at a time so that they’re more sturdy.
- Be sure to let the cups dry completely before filling them with treats or snacks.
- If you’re giving these away as gifts, it might be a good idea to put them in a small Easter basket or other container.
- If you’re using these as decorations, try clustering them together on a table or shelf.

How to Make Easter Bunny Cups
- Use a pen to draw your ears on a piece of card stock. Cut out then make ears out of gummed paper using this stencil. I added a little detail inside the ears with contrast paper; I think it’s the most adorable thing about these cups!
- Glue googly eyes on.
- Cut about 6 whiskers out of black wire, in various shapes and lengths then glue whiskers on. Use your fingers to support the whiskers while the glue dries out.
- Cut out a small circle out of pink fleece for nose, but large enough to cover the dollop of glue you used to attach the whiskers. Add a tiny bit of glue and add the nose on.
- Cut out 2 tiny strips of white fleece and attach as teeth.
- Apply glue to the back of the ears and attach them to the inside of the cups.
- Apply glue to a cotton ball and attach to the back of the cup as a tail.
- Fill cups with treats or snacks. Enjoy!
