Our Star Wars Easter Display (Part 1) - The beginning of the process

So one day while surfing Pinterest I saw a couple finger puppet star wars bunnies
and got the greatest idea to make wooden bunnies inspired by the characters in
Star Wars and Star Wars Rebels for our 1st ever Easter display. 

This is our journey in making them

First thing my husband printed out a bunny to trace onto wood. He then cut out 4 bunnies at a time using a wood saw. I then (with the help of my three year old) painted all of them by hand. I did everything free hand just looking at picture online. Now as a daughter of an actual artist I never thought I had artistic ability but I just loved painting these bunnies. 

Here is a couple pictures of the bunnies during the cutting/painting process...

Bleach Shirts

My son is obsessed with the show Octonauts but you can't find the anything to buy in the store because its based in  the UK. My husband got the great idea to make him a shirt using a bleach technique. He printed out the picture he wanted using freezer paper. Cut it out the image so that it was revered and the image was the only part of the shirt showing.  He then ironed it onto the shirt. Using bleach in a spray bottle he sprayed the image. Once you remove the freezer paper, you can see that the areas you bleached are a different color then the rest of the shirt. Step 1: Print our image you want Step 2: Cut out the image, leaving the outline Step 3: Iron on to shirt Step 4: Using bleach in a spray bottle, spray the area of the shirt showing, inside the outline Step 5: Peel of freezer paper Step 6: Rinse and let dry  It came out great!   Close up of the image
