  1. Apply double-sided tape around the cardboard tube.

  4. Stick the ears and inners ear together, then stick to the inside of the cardboard tube.
  5. For the whiskers, cut pipe cleaners to approximately 5cm in length, you should have 6 in total.
  6. Stick the whiskers to the centre of the cardboard tube, having 3 whiskers on each side.
  7. Stick the nose to the centre of the face, where the pipe cleaners meet.
  8. Stick the wiggle eyes to the face.
  9. For both paws, stick 2 natural branch chips together and stick one natural branch chip on top.
  10. Lastly, glue the paws to the bunny.
  11. For the other bunny, use burlap hessian rolls instead of jute twine.
