Would you like to see how you can easily make needle felted bunny ears and attach them? In this tutorial I give a brief overview of how I needle felt bunny ears and then I show you how I attach them onto the bunny head. I just love creating wool animals through the art of needle felting and I hope you get inspired to make your own. If you'd like to see how I make a complete wild rabbit sculpture using a pipe cleaner armature and then add wool in layers, then create a head, ears etc then please see my video here:    • How to make a REALISTIC NEEDLE FELTED...   ********************************************************* If you’d like to see more videos I'm making to help advance your skills and become a more confident Needle Felter, be sure to press the red subscribe button and bell icon :-) *********************************************************** NEEDLE FELTING TOOLS & WOOL I RECOMMEND FOR REALISTIC ANIMALS **** Best quality NEEDLES I use are from Heidifeathers - all colour coded.
