Bunny Gourd Chick Nest Craft

Bunny Gourd Chick Nest Craft
I grew an abundance of bird house gourds for crafting several years ago.  I just recently found one of my dried gourds that was in better condition than the rest.   I wanted to make a craft with it but I didn't know what to make.  I was thinking snowman or bunny and since I favor bunnies over snowmen, I chose to make a white rabbit.

Step 1Preparing the Gourd

Preparing the Gourd
1  Pick out a fairly large dried gourd.

2  Sand and wash off mold and other debris if it already hasn't been done. 

3  To make the hole in my gourd I took it to a table saw and cut a portion of the gourd off.
    Cut off about as much as the dotted line on the picture indicates.
