DIY: EASTER EGG CARTON FOR KIDS

We are just over a week until Easter 2022 and I wanted to share a super simple DIY that you could easily put together this weekend! With a few simple treats that you can buy from many stores, this little egg carton makeover will excite any little one on Easter morning.

Here’s how to make it.

Step 1: Cut an egg carton in half.

Step 2: If you want to add personalization or the little ‘Happy Easter’ message on the inside, simply make, cut out and glue on.

Step 3: Line each egg holder with left over raffia if you have it.

Step 4: Fill!

Here are some ideas of what to fill your Easter egg cartons with:

• chocolate mini eggs

• hair ties, hair clips or scrunchies (we adore these Liberty print ones)

• caffeine-free tea bags (our kids love tea!)

• nail polish

• scratch and win ticket (might be fun for teens)

• rubber stamp or easter stamp

• stickers

• chocolate Easter bunny

• mini jam or honey (fun if you have hot cross buns, croissants or scones on Easter morning)

• any kind of toy (mini slinky, wind up chick toy, wooden animal, etc.)

• eraser

• coins

• lip balm

That’s it! I’d love to see if you try this idea. Tag me on Instagram or use the #winterdaisyDIY

WHAT GOES IN OUR EASTER BASKETS

It’s March and for us, that signals the start of ‘birthday season’, a time of year that launches Spring and always reminds me to get ready for Easter!

Last year, I shared a roundup of Easter gifts for kids and this year I thought it would be fun to share the EXACT items that are going into our Easter baskets!

While we do an egg hunt on the day, and are starting a tradition of drawing on a wooden egg each per year, I always like to leave a little basket of treats on their placemats at the breakfast table on Easter morning as a surprise and this is what is going in them this year.
