Directions:

1.  Cut out bunny ears from white craft foam.  TIP:  If your edges are not smooth, you can take fine sandpaper and smooth them.

2.  I used pink multi-surface paint to paint the inner ears.

3.  I mixed fast curing resin that cures white.

4.  I put the bunny ears in and held them in place.  That is why I used the quick curing resin, so I wouldn’t have to hold it for hours!

5.  After about 15 minutes, I pulled it out of the mold.  It hadn’t completely cured, but was cured enough to pull out and lay out on a flat surface.

6.  You may find that the resin does not cure completely white.  To cure that, I took some acrylic paint and pounced it on the coaster.  It gave it a furry look too.

7.  Once dry, I painted on the face, using acrylic paint.

8.  Once dry, I mixed clear resin and poured it over the bunny.

9.  I carefully helped it to the edges.

10.  I used my lighter to pop the bubbles.  BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET TOO CLOSE TO THE EAR WITH YOUR LIGHTER! You might melt them.  Let it cure a minimum of 12 hours.

That’s it!
