How To Make Easter Bunny Treat Bags
I love burlap and bunny tails so these burlap bunny treat bags are perfect for my Easter celebration. Who can resist a fluffy bunny tail? I know you can’t! These are so easy to make with just a few supplies and the free printable template that you can download below. Make one for every child on your gift-giving list this Easter!
Supplies Needed To Make Easter Bunny Treat Bags
- Muslin drawstring bags (the 5×7 size works perfectly)
- Pink burlap
- White pom poms
- Tacky glue
- Scissors
- Printable bunny template (click here to download)
- Marker
NOTE: I cut out my bunnies by hand for this project, but you can use a Cricut machine instead. I talk more about using a Cricut machine to cut the bunnies out in step 3. If you would like to use your Cricut to cut out the bunnies, you will need to add the following supplies to the list above.
Step 1: Download & Print Template
Download the template, print, and cut out the shape.
Step 2: Trace Bunny Shape Onto Burlap
Trace the template onto the burlap with a marker. I was able to lay the template under the burlap and see it enough through the fibers to trace the bunny.
Step 3: Cut Out Bunny Shape
Use scissors to cut out the bunny shape making sure to cut inside the marker lines. You do not want any marker lines left on your bunny.
How To Cut Bunny Shape With A Cricut Machine
If you don’t want to cut your bunny shapes by hand, use your Cricut machine instead!
To do that, first, you will need to stiffen your burlap with the tacky glue and let it dry. Once it’s dry, place strong grip transfer tape on the back of your stiffened burlap piece to cut the burlap. Then, place this (transfer tape side down) onto a Cricut mat.
When your mat has been loaded into your machine, find a bunny shape in Cricut Design Space and cut out the shape from your burlap.
To see my full method for cutting stiff burlap (and the correct blade to use), check out this project. You also check out this video to see the process of cutting burlap as well.
Step 4: Glue Bunny Shape To Treat Bag
Place a scrap piece of paper or cardboard inside the bag to keep the glue from seeping through. Add sufficient tacky glue all the way around the edges of the bunny and put it on the front of the bag. This will adhere the bunny to the bag as well as keep the burlap from fraying.
You want to make sure you have glue all around the edge. Also, add the pom pom tail with the tacky glue. Allow to dry completely.
Make as many of these easy treat bags as you need for your Easter celebration. They are easy to make and inexpensive….and those bunny tails are just adorable! This is my kind of craft y’all!

Where Can I Buy Muslin Treat Bags?
You can find muslin treat bags on Amazon!

Absolutely! I like the look of the pink burlap, but you could use traditional brown or even blue!
