Easy DIY PB Inspired Bunny

Today I thought I would share with you an easy and budget friendly project that I finished over the weekend, a ceramic bunny serving piece/vase.

Here is my DIY Pottery Barn Inspired Easter Bunny: 


It's very similar to this one from Pottery Barn:





When I found this guy at my local Goodwill, ( yes it's thrifted!) I just knew I could convert him to a look-alike PB version.  And.....at $3.25 I snapped him up!!!

Before



This was one of THE simplest projects ever.  All I did was spray paint it!!  First with Krylon white primer and then with Valspar Gloss White.  Here's it is finished:

After

Pin It










Isn't he stylish??  I just love how it turned out.  The only problem is, it's going to be hard to decide where to put him since there are so many places I can think of!!  On my fireplace mantle, an end table on a stack of books or on the bathroom vanity...the list goes on and on.  But I think it's place of honor will be the sofa table for the Easter holidays.  Have you completed any projects for Easter?
 

Update- Big News!!  This DIY has been featured at  Knock Off Decor!!  Check out Beckie's site to see my PB Bunny featured and to get many other inspirational ideas!  Thanks Beckie for the shout out!

  4. Stunning! I've been wanting some ceramic bunnies to put here and there around the house lately. I've bought a couple from the dollar store, but I want more. And yours is just perfect, maybe even better than Pottery Barn. Can I say that?
