Here Comes Peter Cottontail...

These "bunny pots" are made from cheap clay pots.
I spray painted the pots white and then "sponge painted" pastel paints on top, heavier on the rim of the pot. I fill them with candy and tied tissue paper into "ears":
Each one has their own personality:
I have also filled them with flower seeds and peat pads.
And don't forget to put a pompom on his backside!!

I am linking up with Bloggeritaville for Thrifty Thursday and Shabby Chic Cottage for Transformation Thursday

    This is such a cute project, Patti! I love bunnies, so I'd have something like this out all year round. I love the faces you gave them.
