How would your family make use of #5?
Easter Craft Tubes
Picture this: It's Easter. There are five screaming kids. And for some reason the promise of the annual Easter egg hunt isn't enough to keep them still. Yikes! Thankfully, these Easter Craft Tubes from The Crafting Chicks are such a good solution and can use everyday objects that are probably already at home.
Easter Gingerbread Houses
Who says gingerbread houses can only be made for Christmas? Not me, that's for sure. I think gingerbread houses can be an all-year thing and to prove my point just take a look at these adorable Easter versons created by the Crafting Chicks that I wanna make ASAP. Candy + crafting = perfection.
Paper Straw Carrot
How's this for a colorful art project kids can do easily? Keeping It Simple had the, well, simple idea to make Paper Straw Carrots that are adorable for Easter … or a great gift for a gardener in the family!
Egg Carton Chicks
Any time we can upcycle, we should absolutely do it! These adorable Egg Carton Chicks from The Kids Crafts Club aren't just cute, they'll use up the (now-empty) egg carton one might have laying around after dying Easter eggs. So smart! The Egg Carton Chicks can then be used as an Easter egg holder. Consider my mind blown.
Milk Jug Easter Bunnies
Need a new Easter basket for the kiddos? Why not let them make it! This Milk Jug Easter Bunny from Frugal and Fun Mom does triple duty — recycles an old milk jug, serves as a basket for their goodies, and then turns into an adorable planter.
Wine Cork Easter Chicks
Let's face it — if there's something moms probably have in excess, it's wine corks. So put 'em to good use! These adorable Wine Cork Chicks from Sassy Dealz are a fun and perfect for the season.
