{sewn BUNNY candy pouch}


I decided to use my original sewn paper candy pouch tutorial to make something just as cute (if not cuter) for Easter!

This really is such a simple way to make a BIG statement.
Who wouldn't love to tear right into this {chocolate} bunny to get to the treats hidden inside?


I used brown craft paper here and inked it up with distressing ink to make it look more chocolatey.  The googly eyes definitely add an element of cuteness, don't you think?


I just drew this bunny free-hand, but I'm sure you could find any shape you want to use to copy or trace for your candy pouch. An egg-shaped pouch would be cute, too!
This little guy is about 9 inches tall and is filled with jelly beans.

Perhaps the Easter Bunny reads this blog and will decide to leave a few sewn candy pouches in YOUR Easter baskets this year!
