Easter Bunny Pinata Tutorial: Learn how to craft a festive and fun Easter Bunny pinata with our step-by-step guide. Perfect for Easter celebrations!

Materials needed:

• A large balloon
• Newspaper or tissue paper
• White glue or flour and water mixture
• Scissors
• Crepe paper streamers in various colors (pink, white, blue, etc.)
• Construction paper in pink and white
• Glue stick or craft glue
• Candy or small toys to fill the piñata

Step 1: Inflate the balloon to the desired size for your piñata. It should be big enough to hold a good amount of candy or toys, but not so big that it will be difficult to break open.

Step 2: Tear or cut the newspaper or tissue paper into strips. Mix together the white glue with a little bit of water to create a paste. Alternatively, you can mix flour and water together to create a similar paste.

Step 3: Dip the newspaper or tissue paper strips into the paste, and then lay them onto the balloon. Make sure to cover the entire surface of the balloon, leaving a small opening at the top where you will later fill it with candy or toys. Allow the piñata to dry completely, which may take several hours or overnight.

Step 4: Once the piñata is dry, pop the balloon and remove it from inside the piñata. Cut a small hole at the top of the piñata where you left the opening, and fill it with candy or toys.

Step 5: Cut two large bunny ear shapes out of white construction paper. Cut two smaller pink ear shapes, and glue them onto the white ear shapes. Glue the ears onto the top of the piñata.

Step 6: Cut out two circles for eyes and a nose from pink construction paper. Glue them onto the front of the piñata, along with a mouth made from a curved strip of pink construction paper.

Step 7: Use the crepe paper streamers to create a fringe around the bottom of the piñata, making sure to leave enough space for the bunny tail. Cut out a small white pom-pom and glue it onto the back of the piñata for the tail.

Step 8: Hang the piñata from a sturdy surface, and use a stick or bat to hit it until it breaks open and spills out the candy or toys inside.

That’s it! With a little bit of time and creativity, you can create your very own Easter Bunny piñata that is sure to be a hit at your next Easter celebration.

What you Need:

– Cardboard box (I used Christmas gift boxes)

– Packaging tape

– White tissue paper

– Black, brown, orange construction/cardstock paper

How to Make:

1. First you need to decide how big you want and if you are doing Olaf’s entire body or just the head like me. Trace the head out making a front and back. Cut the head out. Cut long strips about 2 1/2 inches wide. These strips are for the side.

2. Slowly tape the edges of the front and back to the strips to make a 3D box of Olaf. Make sure to reinforce the sides with tape

3. Take your bungee cord and another small piece of cardboard and punch a hole thru to slide bungee loop thru. Secure down with tape.  Slide the bungee loop thru a hole in the middle top of Olaf’s head. Secure with tape preferably duck tape. This has to be the most secure so your Olaf will continue to hang thru the entire bashing celebration.

4. Cover the entire box with white tissue paper.

5. Cut out the pieces to go on the head. You can find them in the Moms Saving Money Store. Glue on the mouth, eyes and eye brows.

6. Make a cone nose as desired height using a sheet of paper. Cover with Orange tissue paper or you can just cut it out of Orange cardstock. Secure to Olaf’s face with tape.

Making a Dr. Seuss hat pinata is a fun and creative way to bring some whimsy to your next party or celebration. This colorful pinata is inspired by the iconic hat worn by the beloved author and illustrator, Dr. Seuss. In this post, I’ll guide you through the process of making your very own Dr. Seuss hat pinata that will be the hit of the party.

Here’s what you’ll need to get started:

• A large round balloon
• Newspaper or tissue paper
• White glue or paper mache paste
• Scissors
• Red, white, and black crepe paper
• A pencil
• String or twine
• Candy or small toys for filling the pinata
• Optional: paint and paintbrushes

Step 1: Inflate the balloon to the desired size for your pinata. You can make it as big or as small as you like, depending on the size of your party and the amount of candy or toys you want to fill it with.

Step 2: Tear or cut newspaper or tissue paper into small strips. Mix equal parts of white glue and water in a bowl to make your paper mache paste.

Step 3: Dip each strip of paper into the glue mixture and smooth it onto the balloon. Cover the entire surface of the balloon with at least three layers of paper mache, allowing each layer to dry completely before adding the next.

Step 4: Once the paper mache is completely dry, use scissors to carefully cut a small hole in the top of the balloon. Remove the balloon from inside the pinata.

Step 5: Draw the outline of the Dr. Seuss hat onto the pinata using a pencil. You can use a reference image online to help guide you.

Step 6: Cut long strips of red, white, and black crepe paper. Starting at the bottom of the hat, glue the red crepe paper strips onto the pinata, overlapping them slightly as you go. Continue with the white and black crepe paper, alternating colors until you reach the top of the hat.

Step 7: Cut a long piece of string or twine and tie it securely through the hole at the top of the pinata. This will be used to hang the pinata.

Step 8: Fill the pinata with candy or small toys through the hole at the top. Once it’s filled, carefully seal the hole with more paper mache and allow it to dry.

Step 9: Optional: Once the pinata is completely dry, you can paint on additional details such as stripes, polka dots, or other decorative elements.

And there you have it – a whimsical Dr. Seuss hat pinata that is sure to be the highlight of any party or celebration. Enjoy the fun and excitement of breaking open the pinata to reveal the treasures inside!

Despicable Me Minions Party Pack $21.99

A Despicable Me Minions Party Pack great for 10-16 guests. A Party in a Box! Cards and Favor Bags are Handmade.

How to Make:

The Base of a Minion Pinata.

1. Take your cardboard box and cut the side so it will lay flat. Go from one side and roll it into a tight overlapping circle. Unroll and do the same from the other end.

2. Tape your box at desired width both inside and outside.

3. Secure the bottom by taping it down inside and outside.

4. Curve the tops of the box and tape into place leaving an area so you can fill it with pinata goodies. I used plastic baggies about halfway added the goodies and then added more plastic bags to the top and help shaped the head area.

5. Close off the top by adding the bungee looped thru a piece of cardboard and attached using tape. Make sure to completely secure the loop.

To Decorate the Minion Pinata.

6. Take white tissue paper and cover the entire Pinata and tape it down. This helps allow the yellow to pop out. Otherwise the yellow will look brownish from the cardboard.

7. Take the yellow tissue paper and wrap the pinata. I used double sided tape to secure it all down.

8. Cut the Blue tissue paper to make it look like a pair of overalls. Include the straps. Secure it on the pinata with tape.

9. Cut a black strip from the plastic tablecloth to fit around the head area for the glasses band. Secure with tape. Cut a halfway U shape out of the black plastic table cloth for the mouth and adhere it to the pinata.

10. Take some cardboard 3/4 in with by 10 -12 inches long and make 2 circles and tape together. These are the goggles. Cover them with grey or silver tissue paper or duck tape.

11. Next cut out 2 cardboard circles that fit just inside your goggles and cover those with white tissue paper.

12. Cut a slightly smaller set of circles from the cardboard, these can remain brown.

13. Cut a set of circles from either black cardstock, construction paper of the black plastic tablecloth. These are the eyes.

14. Put your eyes together the white is the base, then brown and then black. Adjust them accordingly to your desired look.

5. Add the blue pocket to the front of the overalls. Use a piece of cardboard and cut out your pocket shape. I added a few pieces of the plastic table clothe and taped it down. The add the blue over the pocket shape and tape down. Take a blue marker and make your stitches marks, you can also use yellow but it may not show up very well. Adhere the pocket to the pinata. Did you notice mine is upside down!!! I have changed it for the final picture!!!

16. Add buttons to your overalls. You can use real buttons if you have them. I cut out a set of cardboard circles and covered them with black plastic table cloth and secured them with tape to the pinata.

hat is it! You are done!

The total cost for me was FREE having done several theme parties, I already had everything on hand, I save colored tissue paper, plastic table cloths, and any paper to reuse for future parties. The only thing I am constantly buying is packaging tape!!!!
