First go to "How to Hold your Bunny" and try to do the scissor hold.  If your bunny will not cooperate than get some one to hold her while you clip her nails.  If she   really gets weird than wrap her gently in a towel just to calm her down.  Make sure her eyes are covered and that she can breath.  Than get a nail clipper such as the one I am holding in the picture and clip the nails.  Be careful.  You should not clip where you see the quick, (just a term for blood vein).  If you do cut the quick and it starts bleeding, you can dip it in some "Sweet and Low", the diet sweetener.  It will clot the blood and keep it from bleeding.  It  really works!  Check bunny's nails regularly. She could get sore hocks if they get too long.
