I love this Easter Egg Bouquet from Crafty Journal. They are easy to make and would be a nice addition to your Easter buffet or dinner table.

The Crafty Chameleon has ideas for three different types of creative Easter baskets to add to your Easter celebration.

I made this adorable Easter candy gift bag craft as part of the HERSHEY’S #bunnytrail promotion.

I have made this craft with kids at church several times over the last few years. It is pretty easy and the kids enjoy making 3D Easter Eggs.

This Easter Egg Wreath by Scrumptilicious4You is the craft I still want to make this Easter season. It dowsn’t seem too difficult and I’d like to start making seasonal wreaths for my home.

So, what do you think? Will you try at least one of these craft projects this year? Leave me a comment and tell me which one you’d like to try.

HERSHEY’s Chocolates Candy Jar

Supplies:

• 1 smooth Mason Jar
• Spring Washi Tape
• HERSHEY’S KISSES Milk Chocolates
• WHOPPERS ROBIN EGGS
• JOLLY RANCHER Jelly Beans
• CADBURY Creme Eggs

Directions
Pop the lid insert out of the Mason Jar and decorate with Washi Tape.

Decide how you want to decorate the Mason Jar with the Washi Tape. I just used tape on the jar’s seams. You can do whatever makes you happy.

Carefully layer the candies in the jar.
Seal the jar tightly to keep the candy fresh.
This craft would make a great decoration, centerpiece or party favor.

This craft takes a little more time than the one above but it isn’t difficult and it adds a nice pop of color to your table or mantle.

Crafts

Make a Sheep Egg using hard-boiled eggs, vibrant egg dye, a cute pipe cleaner stand, and some glued-on details (paper ears, pom-pom nose, and so on), this critter is an Easter favorite.

Try some Pop-Up Eggs! Make your Easter extra festive with this 3-D paper egg. The secret to its look is colorful, accordion-folded paper strips.
Bunny Bean Bags: Make your own bunny beanbag and get some use from the single socks left behind.

Easter Activities

• The Great Egg Drop: Kids construct protective coverings around raw eggs before dropping onto a target below. The goal is to hit the bull’s eye without breaking the eggs – making a little bit of a mess and a lot of fun memories!
• Less Sugary Easter Egg Hunts: Fill plastic eggs with puzzle pieces to make Easter egg hunts more fun and less sugary.
• A Kid-Friendlier Way to Dye Eggs: Put the eggs in wire whisks, and dip away!
