About
a new trick to learn and making a centerpiece of kitchen scraps;-D
My inspiration was the sorting out for wrapping up my kitchen for the moving.
I found later on in a shop those adorable bunnies that were calling me buy me.LOL
At home i thought i must look for more scraps to make towers for those bunnies to stand up before they are throw or wrapped in.;-D
Note:
the time is without drying time.
the glue: for using plastic on porcelain or iron parts use your hot glue gun.
for the others you can use the constructive adhesive. I always love the transparent
glue of this kind, because
you can give it or not an other colour.
the whippet cream: for this one buy the cheapest constructive adhesive kit you can find and of course take the white one!!!!
You can find those glues in the hardware store like the kitpistol tool as well;-D
add on the list a tiny figure for on the top to set;-D
I really love my bunny towers not only for the easter days but for the whole year.
I hope you like it as well and i wish you much fun with the making of ;-D
Just have fun and be creative, you can use anything of scraps out of your kitchen;-D
Thank you very much for stopping by;-D

Step 1Search in your kitchen for scraps like old coffee pots and tea pots and saucers and other t hings you want to use for your tower.
First try differends shapes of your tower.
When you know what you would like to use , make all the scraps carefely first with white spirit clean and then wash them with hot water and soap.
scrub them down. -
Step 2You can use as well for your bunny an old plastic desert cup , like this one i used.
When it's too high you can modefied it like your desire hight. Watch the pict.
If you are smarter then i'was , just paint first the inside of it. I didn't done that and i was not fond of that later.;-s -
Step 3Glue all the parts together.
when you wants to glue porcelain with iron it works the best to use constructive adhesive, for plastic to add on porcelain you can use better your hot glue gun. -
Step 4
Covering the whole tower with a thick layer of glue.

Step 5Now we can start to paint the towerparts.
I wanted to have a top of light blue, and on the coffee i added a thick layer of white glue after the painting with blue and gave it a layer of glitter.
When you're done , give it a varnish layer with hairspray. -
Step 6Make a pattern for the fake ears on the coffee pot,
Or use mine pattern.
Draw it on the inside of the scraps of plastic bottle .
And cut all the 'ears" out. I needed 7 pieces. -
Step 7Paint the inside and outside of the 7 ears.

Step 8Paint the inside and outside of the 7 ears.

Step 9Glue the downsides of the ears on the coffee pot all around.
Watch the picture -
Step 10Glue the fake ear behind the coffee pot like i have done on the picture.
the top will be glued on the coffee ear holder.
the end just like the others on the coffiee pot
You can add the plastic grass arond the bunny. -
Step 11Now the real fun part.!!!!
the fake whippet cream;-D!!!!
For this you need an other glue.
Constructive adhesive kit in white with a kitpistol -
Step 12Cut with a sharp knife a small slice of the top of the glue kit.
Srew the nazzle tip spray rod above it.
and place the kit in the kit pistol.
Watch the picture , you will become something like this.Now the fun can started.LOL

Step 13Spurt the glue like whippet cream on the top of your tower,
Make flowers dots where you can add big fake pearl beads on.
Make lines and think of nice pretty yummie whippet cream cakes;-D
Make lines on the fake ears as well.
When it don't go well just whip it off with a wet cloth and start over.
Don't wait to long to add on the tops the pearl beads this glue is very quick dry.!!! -
Step 14Glue on the base some fake grass as well .
and on the seccond saucer some flowers,
Put one flower in the gate of t he thea nose and one flower on the ear as well
you can add some ribbons bows on the teapot on both sides as well -
Step 15End the lines of the whippet cream on the ears
Add some fake whippet cream on the ear and the nose as well, so it' will become a matching tower piece;-D -
Step 16When you are satisfied with your theapot bunny tower you can place it on your table as centerpiece
or give it away.
