Hi guys! Easter is now only a couple of weeks away and the perfect time to join in on a blog “hop”! So.… I have teamed up with some of my favorite blogging friends to bring you some fun Easter inspiration and crafting ideas. Let’s get hippity hopping…
With all of the kitchen renovations going on, I have been a little lax with the Easter decorations this year. Our kitchen is a disaster right now and its contents have been spread out in the dining room {and much of the main floor} for a couple of weeks. Despite the mess, I did want to bring out a few favorites and do at least one Easter project this year.
I picked up this chalkboard from Decor Steals a few weeks back {you may have seen it on my Instagram feed} and it has just been sitting unloved on the shelf since I brought it home. I knew that it was just begging for a cute little bunny butt!
For the bunny, I just used my Easter Bunny Canvas from last year as a template and drew him onto the chalkboard. I kind of ran out of room for his ears so he ended up being a floppy eared bunny! {I think they are the cutest anyways!}
For the bunting, I riffled through my craft stash and found some linen fabric pennants {I think these were from Pick Your Plum} and pulled out my stamps from about 10 years ago. I stamped the “hippity” on the top of each pennant and then went over it with a fine, black Sharpie as the ink came out really light. If you don’t have stamps, you could always use stickers or a digital cutter for this {or just free hand with your own writing if you are brave!}
The “hop” letters are some old scrapbooking stickers {I think they were Scenic Route?} that I bought for Connor’s baby book almost 7 years ago. Yes, I am a craft supply hoarder. 🙂
I then just added some cute May Arts pom pom ribbon to hang it {it kind of reminded me of little bunny tails!} and I was all done!
Now don’t go hopping away yet! For even more Easter inspiration, please check out these amazing ideas from some of my favorite bloggers…

Thanks so much! I usually decorate lots for Easter but just not as into it this year for some reason. This is the first {and probably last!} project that I will be doing this year!
Melissa says
What a cute idea! There really is an endless amount of ideas for bunting. I love your bunny drawing.

So cute! You’ve inspired me to get my chalkboard nook all decorated for Easter! I love your little bunny, and your bunting is perfect!
Thea says
This is delightful! I love how you basically used items you already had in your craft stash to come up with this delicious dose of creativity! It is so simple but so cute! I love it!
Jenn Lifford says
Thanks so much Thea! Always great to use up some of that stash!
Shauna says
Super cute! Don’t you love finally being able to use those craft supplies that have been tucked away for years. I finally figured out that those “just in case” or “someday” projects rarely happen!
Virginia Fynes says

What a sweet piece of art Jen! So cute! You are the queen of pretty chaulkboard art girl! Have a lovely weekend! Angie xo
Alex @ northstory says
Very cute bunting and I love the eyelets in the top b/c with buntings they tend to rip so easily and that’s a smart idea to hold it in place! 🙂
Jenn Lifford says
Thanks Alex!
Tara says
I love this, Jenn! Chalkboard is always so great for seasonal decorations, and that bunting is SO charming.
I identify with the craft supply hoarding – I’m the same way! 🙂
Jenn Lifford says
Thanks Tara! Yes, I think craft hoarding is a common affliction among bloggers! 😉
Christine says

Nice decorations. They really have a hand crafted olden day aesthetic. Reminds me of peter rabbit 🙂
