Here's how to create Easter Characters from Wooden Spoons
STEP ONE
To begin the Wooden Spoon Easter Animals, gather all supplies. Basecoat the first wooden spoon with Titanium White acrylic craft paint for the Bunny. Let dry and apply a second coat, if necessary. I love Americana Acrylics from DecoArt because they have one-coat coverage on most surfaces.

STEP TWO
Paint the second wooden spoon with Mustard Yellow acrylic craft paint using a flat wash basecoat paintbrush for the Chick. Let dry and apply a second coat, if necessary.

STEP THREE
Basecoat the third wooden spoon with Grey Storm acrylic craft paint for the Lamb. Let dry and apply a second coat, if necessary. Paint the bottom of the Lamb (or the handle of the wooden spoon) with Titanium White acrylic craft paint. Let dry and apply a second coat, if necessary.


STEP FOUR
Download and print the EASTER WOODEN SPOON PATTERNS from the bottom of this post. Cut out with scissors. For the Bunny, trace two outer ears on White felt, trace two inner ears and one nose on Candy Pink felt. Cut out all patterns with scissors, making sure to cut inside the traced lines for a clean, finished project.

STEP FIVE
For the Chick, trace one beak and one head feather rectangle onto Orange felt. Cut out all patterns with scissors, making sure to cut inside the traced lines for a clean, finished project. Fringe the orange rectangle with scissors, then fold it in thirds and secure it with a glue gun and glue sticks. TIP: You can use liquid craft glue for this project, but you have to add extra drying time.

STEP SIX
For the Lamb, trace two ears on Charcoal Grey felt, one nose on Black felt, and one wooly hair on White felt. Cut out all patterns with scissors, making sure to cut inside the traced lines for a clean, finished project.

STEP SEVEN
Attach two wiggle eyes to each wooden spoon with a glue gun and glue sticks. Create the cheeks by dipping a sponge dabber into pink acrylic craft paint. Attach the beak and noses under the wiggle eyes with a glue gun and glue sticks.
For the Bunny, glue the Candy Pink inner ear to the White outer ear and attach it to the top back of the wooden spoon.
For the Chick, attach the Orange head feather to the top back of the wooden spoon.
For the Lamb, glue the Charcoal Grey ears to the right and left side of the front of the wooden spoon, and then attach the wooly hair over the top of the ears.

STEP EIGHT
Attach three one-inch lengths of black embroidery floss to the right and left side of the Bunny’s nose for the whiskers. Trim any long ends with scissors. I love using Anchor Embroidery Floss from Coats and Clark.

STEP NINE
Using the MONO Twin permanent black marker, draw two straight lines from the nose down on the Lamb and the Bunny, for their mouths. Add two dots to the top center of the Chick’s beak. I love drawing and tracing with the MONO Twin Permanent Marker from Tombow because it has a large bullet tip and a small extra fine tip.

STEP TEN
Tie gingham ribbons in bows, and attach them to the neck of the Bunny, Chick, and Lamb securing them with a dot of glue. Cut a triangular notch from the ends of the ribbons to prevent fraying. To finish, attach two colored buttons to the handle of each wooden spoon with a glue gun and glue sticks.
