Learn how to make an adorable light-up Dollar Tree Bunny for Easter and Spring!

It’s no secret that I absolutely love finding inexpensive items at Dollar Tree to use in my Cricut Crafts. When I first found these round glass vases in the floral section, I immediately started dreaming up all the different things I could do with them! Last winter, I made a light-up snowman from items I found at Dollar tree, which was so cute. With Springtime rapidly approaching, I decided to hop to it and make a super cute light-up Easter bunny! It turned out so awesome and cost less than $10 to make. Today I’ll share my tutorial with you so you can make one too.
