Shape ears with light steam and pinch the bases until dry.
-
To make Hopper sit steadily, place a flat pebble or bead bag in the base before final stuffing.

Lightly blush cheeks with pink pastel (optional).
Steam the ears briefly to soften and shape if needed.
Your bunny’s blue hoodie look is complete — round face, long ears, and adorable puffed cheeks just like in the photo!
