Tips & Warnings
Tie the ribbon around each tier so that it hides the rubber bands. Dress the centerpiece up as much as you want with bunny-themed baby toys secured underneath the ribbon or tied into the bows. You can put a newborn onesie on the stuffed bunny and attach a pacifier to its ear with a pacifier clip. Always carry the centerpiece by the platter so that the tiers don't collapse.
