Banners are one of my favorite things to make for holidays and special occasions. They’re quick to make and easy to store since they lay flat.
I had a lot of fun making this Easter bunny banner. You will see two versions because I remade it to update this post. The second one features an adorable pom-pom tail, which is a fun detail to add.

Notes About Supplies:
Scrapbook Paper
Choose scrapbook paper in a variety of colors and patterns. I love mixing florals and geometric patterns.
Old Book Pages or Scrapbook Paper for the Banner Flags
I used an old book for the first version and cardstock for the 2nd version. The important thing to remember is to choose a background with enough contrast.
- Gather your supplies. I picked some pretty scrapbook paper for the bunny shapes and used an old poetry book from the thrift store.
- Cut your bunnies. I used my Cricut Maker 3 to cut my bunnies. Here’s a post all about cutting scrapbook paper. If you want your bunnies to face different ways, mirror the image or use reversible papers. (Note: if you don’t have a cutting machine, you could print out the shapes, trace them onto the paper, and cut them by hand.)
- Weed the paper away from the bunnies.
- Prepare your banners. Rip out a page and trim it down using a paper cutter or scissors if you can cut straight.
- Cut the shape of your banners. Then, fold the page at the bottom and cut out a triangle.
- Use a hole punch in the corner of each page.
- Apply glue to each bunny. A glue pen is perfect for those tiny parts like the ears.
- Glue a bunny to each banner. I angled mine a bit because they were a bit large. But it makes them look like they are hopping!
- Thread the banners onto the string. Use the baker’s twine through each hole. I like to have the paper on the back of the banner.
- Glue a pom pom for the tail if desired.
- Hang and enjoy.
Aren’t the bunnies cute?
