Bunny Ears
Arguably the most notable aspect of any rabbit costume is the ears.

Sword
You can’t have #rabbitswithswords without swords. You can find Picket’s Sword here or there are lots of different ways to make your own. Here’s how to make one out of cardboard, aluminum foil, or paper.
Now take a look at these swashbuckling swords:

A sword isn’t the only weapon you can use for a Green Ember costume. Try a bow and arrow!

Cape Traveling Cloak
We’ll call it a cloak because..
Here are tutorials for a no-sew version or 4 other methods. A blanket or sheet works as well.
Gaze upon these clever cloaks:
