These ideas are simple, inexpensive, and many supplies you probably already have around the house. Just click on the headings or photos and you will be linked with a simple tutorial!
This is a new, earthy spin on Easter egg colouring, without the mess of dyes. You’re left with beautiful bohemian floral patters, and with eggs ready for eating! This is great fun for kids, just make sure an adult is on hand to carry-out the boiling process. With simple objects like string, onion shells, and small flowers, there’s also a good chance you already have all the supplies you need.
This is a unique way to the give the kiddos their Easter candies. You just need a bag of their favourites and an appropriately sized mason jar. It’s a classy gift for adults as well! Download the free printable Bunny Bait tag HERE, or design your very own!
This simple craft is perfect for those in fear of the permanence of Easter egg dying. It’s also versatile, you can use real eggs, or repurpose plastic and styrofoam eggs already laying around the house for decorations. A coat of chalkboard paint and some drying time is all it takes. Then you’re left with an endlessly erasable palette for all your artistic whims.
These are great to make with kids, or adults who may be less than skilled in the culinary arts. They require NO baking, have 3 simple ingredients, and can be made in minutes then left to set in the fridge. A delicious and beautiful dessert.
These precious pastel eggs may be candy coloured, but are definitely not for eating. These are very simple to make and again you can use real or synthetic eggs of your preference. You can personalize them however you like by choosing any colour and style of sprinkles that suit you.
These are a fairly customizable craft depending on the material you choose. Card stock and paper would simplify the process, or for more elaborate rings that you may want to reuse you can choose a felt fabric you like. You can also detail with buttons, cotton, or other craft supplies you may have on hand to make them unique and individual table decor!
This genius gift idea allows you to make someone cookies without having to make cookies!
