3. Cut the handle strip so it has two endpoints that aren’t connected.

4. Staple one end of the handle to the bag, placing the strip inside the bag. . Cut the handle to size, allowing enough to create a handle to carry the bag. Then, staple the other endpoint on the opposite side of the bag.

5. Create the face. You can:

7. If you glued a bunny face on, let the glue dry completely before using or handling the bag.
