How to Make a Dollar Store Rabbit Topiary Craft

Step 1. To begin, gather all supplies. Paint the outside of the three clay pots roughly with white craft paint and a dry paintbrush. Then set aside to dry.

Step 2. Paint the three wooden dowels with brown craft paint, and then remove some of the paint with a baby wipe. Then set aside to dry.

Step 3. Insert the wooden dowels into the bottom of the moss rabbits to create a hole. Remove the dowel, apply glue from a glue gun onto the top of the dowel and secure it into the moss rabbit.

Step 4. Attach plaid ribbon around the rim of each of the three clay pots, securing the ends with a glue gun and glue sticks.

Step 5. Attach one 1.25” foam ball to the bottom of each clay pot with a glue gun and glue sticks. Insert the wooden dowel of the rabbit topiary into the center of the foam ball, securing it with glue.

Step 6. Tie narrow satin ribbons in assorted colors, into bows. Trim any long ends with scissors, and then attach one bow to the neck of each rabbit with a glue gun and glue sticks.

Topiary Craft FAQs

What is a topiary design?

Topiary is the art of clipping and pruning twigs and foliage; crafting different shapes such as geometrical shapes, etc. This practice has been introduced by the Romans, as seen in their well-crafted and designed gardens.

Which plant is suitable for the topiary?

Slow-growing, small-leaved, and evergreen shrubs are most suitable for topiaries since they can easily be shaped. However, you may grow impatient with shrubs as they take as much as three years to grow.

In this case, you can use ivy plants, which grow faster and can be shaped as well.

Can you plant a topiary in the ground?

Yes, you can plant topiary in the ground. Not only are topiaries are great container plants, but they can also be planted in the ground.

You can use a container soil mix for plant pots, and well-amended soil for in-ground planting.

Why is my topiary dying?

One of the most common causes is that most topiaries end up parched. Check the soil and water it thoroughly.

You can check the surface of the soil daily to monitor its water requirement.
