Instructions
- Print and cut the bunny templates. Approximately 6 – 8″ tall.
- Trace the templates onto the CraftFoM® block and cut them out using a serrated knife.
- Sand edges with scrap FōM to smooth any imperfections.
- Paint the bunnies light brown; let them dry completely.
- Glue beads for eyes and pink pom pims for noses. Glue the white pom poms to the bunnies for tails.
- Cut tie wire for whiskers for whiskers; glue in place.
- Fill the container with water (100 – 110°) and mix in floral preservative per package instructions.
- Lay the WetFōM® brick on the water surface; let float freely until soaked. Do not force submerge the brick; this will trap air and leave the brick dry inside.
- Use the floral knife to cut the brick in half lengthwise. You will have two 2” x 3” x 8” bricks.
- Place the bricks cut side down, end to end, in the Aquatainer® tray; secure with anchor tape.
- Cut lengths of the Cocculus and insert them into the WetFōM® evenly spaced around the edge, allowing them to hang over and conceal the tray.
- Glue a toothpick into the bottom of each bunny. Insert them into the WetFōM® evenly spaced in the container.
- Trim the tulips to various lengths and insert them in clusters around the bunnies.
- Cut apart and insert the ruscus throughout the arrangement to fill gaps and hide the FōM.
