Cute snow bunny

February Origami ~ Snow Bunny ~

Here’s an origami idea for a snow rabbit that you’ll want to make whenever it snows, just like a snowman.

Prepare one sheet of white origami paper, fold it in half diagonally once to make a crease, then unfold.

Fold the left edge in half along the crease, then fold the remaining right corner inward to form a triangle.

Next, fold the triangle’s three corners inward while checking the shape to create the snow rabbit’s base.

Once the base is done, attach ears made from green origami paper and add eyes using small red round stickers, and you’re done! With these simple steps, you can make a snow rabbit that looks just like the real thing—give it a try!
