Free Downloads: How to celebrate Valentine’s Day with your rabbit

February 14 is a day to celebrate all the people you love in your life! While some people send Valentine’s Day cards, others bake pink-frosted desserts.

Our pet bunnies don’t have to be left out of the heart-filled festivities!

Here’s how I’ve celebrated with my white lionhead bun, Baby.

Send bunny themed Valentine’s Day cards

Canva is a great design app you can use to design your own Valentine’s Day cards to print at home or at a store like Staples. They have templates already laid out for you to edit. You can also start your own card design from scratch.

Here are six free cards we designed featuring Baby and Pepper. Feel free to download and use!

Decorate your home with bunny and Valentine’s Day items

By this time of year, many stores have a mix of Valentine’s Day and early Easter products.

You can stock up on both or wait until the seasons are over so you can swipe up all the sales!

My favorite spot is Dollar Tree. I buy a bunch of things for home decorations that I can also use as photo props.

Have a Valentine’s Day photoshoot with your bunny

For most holidays and seasons, I try to do a mini photoshoot with Baby. He has a limited attention span, so I usually set everything up ahead of time.

Head to Pinterest and rabbit Facebook groups for ideas.

I’ll typically set up a cheap backdrop and throw in a few props for pizzazz!

Baby’s Photoshoot

We found some great props at the Dollar Tree this year. IT only took us about 15 minutes to set up and 15 minutes to take all the photos we need. It’s critical that you put your bunny first and make sure they’re comfortable during the experience.

Give your bunny a Valentine’s Day gift

Baby’s gotcha day is February 16, so he typically gets lots of gifts in February!

I typically get Baby his favorite treats, like papaya treats, and some fun extras, like Small Pet Select Herbal mixes.

Whatever snacks you choose, just make sure the treats are safe for rabbits.

Besides food, I also like to give Baby physical gifts.

Here are some ideas I’ve gotten for Baby over the years:

Spend quality time together

Nothing says “love” like spending some time with your bunny!

This could be an hour of petting and snuggling, teaching your bunny some new tricks, or just watching a movie together.

Just show your bunny you love them!

How to decorate your home like a truly obsessed bunny parent

It can sometimes be difficult to find rabbit home decor that truly shows the world how much you love those furry creatures.

Stores, virtual as well as brick and mortars, seem flooded with cat and dog decorations.

But it is possible to find some cute bunny items!

Over the years, I’ve accumulated some cool items, although I’ve definitely had to hold back to stop myself from looking too much like a crazy bunny lady!

Here are some ideas for your own home:

Buy cute bunny prints

Nothing says I love rabbits like having paintings and prints of bunnies all over your home. It’s also one of the easiest and cheapest way to incorporate your beloved pet in your decor.

You can literally snap a photo on your phone and print it at Walmart for less than a dollar. And you can get cheap frames at a dollar store or thrift store.

You can find prints in all different styles, from traditional to minimalist.

Commissioning a painting or print of your rabbit

Etsy is a great place to find someone who can turn your bun into a work of art.

Some will photoshop your bunny’s head onto a traditionally painted human. Others can put paint them using watercolor or cartoonify your rabbit.

When ordering, just make sure you look at reviews to make sure other people were happy with the work (especially if you’re using a smaller shop). You’ll also want to make sure you’re clear on whether you’re getting an actual picture in the mail OR a digital file sent to you electronically.

Here are some options I found:

Buying cute rabbit prints

If you don’t necessarily want a representation of your specific rabbit, you can always get some adorable artsy prints of rabbits online.

This options allows you to get a piece that fits the fit and aesthetic of your decor. You can also make the art a little more subtle if you don’t want your place to scream “rabbit lover.”

For example, if you’re going for a more cottagecore feel, you can get a set of four bunny prints like this:

And this is a cute option for a minimalist/monochrome style home:

You can also get prints of your favorite rabbits like:

Incorporate bunny themed decor pieces into your home

You can add subtle touches of rabbits throughout your home!

If you opt to shop in physical stores, make sure to catch the after Easter sales. I’ve been able to find such good pieces for 50%-75% off! Buying a bunch of items at the same store will also help your finds have a more cohesive look when you put them in your home – since stores seem to have a general theme they’re going for each year.

Thrift stores are also a good place to find rabbit decor. Beware though, some of the bunny figurines I’ve seen could haunt dreams. I don’t know why, but for some reason, it seems like people have a difficult time making rabbit eyes not look creepy.

Kitchen

I love the rabbit themed kitchen towels I got on sale one year. They are, of course, the designated “good towels” that we don’t actually use!

You can also find bunny themed appliances, like this mini waffle maker that imprints a bunny onto your breakfast treat!

Or go small with a Lenox bunny salt and pepper shaker set.

Because of Alice in Wonderland, there are also a number of rabbit wall clocks out there.

Living Room

There are plenty of small finds that can liven up your room bunny-style!

I was gifted this Lenox bunny candle, and I’m obsessed!

You can add some bunny bookends to your shelves or decorate your end table with a lamp featuring snoozing bunnies.

I absolutely love this ceramic rabbit cake stand. I initially bought it for my wedding, but now I use it as a display for my wedding tiara. You could also use it for an actual dessert, of course!

Bedroom

A lot of bedroom rabbit decorations are geared towards nurseries, but there are options for adults.

This is where you can get really cozy with your decor by putting bunny themed pillows on your bed!

You can also use apps like FreePrints Gifts to turn your photos into your own creations for your home. I turned one of my favorite photos of Baby into a blanket!

Rabbit ring holders also look adorable on your nightstand. I bought my sister one like this for my sister a few years ago.

You can also stick a cute bunny nightlight on your nightstand.

Outdoors

Alas, I live in an apartment so I don’t have a yard to decorate.

But if I did, you know I’d have this magical rabbit statue somewhere peeping out of some flowers!

Get crafty!

You can also create your own rabbit decor.

Here are some of the creations my sisters and I have made over the years!

Some of definitely better than others!

You can find materials at different dollar stores before and after Easter. You’d be surprised at how much cute crafting things you can find for cheap!

Make it your own!

In the end, it’s your home.

Decide what level of rabbit-crazy you want to achieve and just go for it!
