Fill with candy, use as an Easter decoration, or give as a gift

Tutorial - How to Make a Polka Dot Easter Bucket

Use see-through buckets for Easter treats

Tutorial at About Family Crafts Blog

"While shopping for Easter treats, I was trying to find something fun to fill with Easter goodies for my grandkids but I wasn’t having much luck. I wanted something cute but also something small because they are all still pretty young and I didn’t want to give them too much candy. I figured that day will come soon enough!  I didn’t have much luck. I should know better by now… I usually get a picture of what I want in my mind so then it is nearly impossible to find something. That is the main reason I make so much stuff. Once I got home from shopping, I went into my craft room and started going through my cupboards. I knew I would have plenty of luck. I am a container hoarder. I have a huge plastic tote that is just full of baggies, boxes, and other containers I have saved to use again. I also have a huge cupboard of empty containers I have bought (even if I had no clue what to do with them). This cupboard is where I found these clear paint containers".... Read more

Tutorial at Coloured Buttons Blog

"Here's a simple Easter bunny project you can sew with your kids.  The first thing I ever remember about the Easter bunny is sitting in preschool in a big group of kids, we were all kind of sitting around the piano like they used to do, the teacher would play the piano and we would all sing. Can't remember what we were singing, but all of a sudden the teacher shouts out "Look the Easter bunny just ran by", and we all turned around to see him but I was too slow and missed him. It was very disappointing but very exciting".... Read more

Rustic Chalkboard Egg Tutorial at Smashed Peas and Carrots Blog

"How's about a fun and functional craft for the Easter holiday and beyond?  With a week to go before Easter I've got just the quick project for you, believe it or not :-)  Last week I was at Michael's (again!) with Eloise and I spotted these cute wooden board slices of tree trunk out of the corner of my eye while we were rolling down the wood aisle...I was seriously shopping for a friend, true story.  They totally reminded me of eggs in their oblong shape.  I snatched up two in different sizes and thought if I prettified them with some of that rad pastel Martha Stewart chalkboard paint I used to make these they would be perfect Easter-y/Spring-y goodness my lacking-in-Easter-decor walls were crying for plus they would have the grand function of being a chalkboard/note-taking space as well.  Boom.  There you have it"....

Tutorial at Sew for Soul Blog

"Last Friday I received an email from the rather marvellous 'Style at Home' magazine asking me about my plans for the Easter Bank Holiday.  'Blimey' I thought 'Christmas was only a fortnight ago!'.  Jen and her team have to work months ahead in order to meet the tight deadlines required to get the magazine onto the shelves for all us eager readers.  Still, that email gave me the little push I needed to start thinking about Spring and Easter projects.  I am planning to make 30 personalised and embroidered linen egg cosies as gifts for the guests at our annual party, which we hold after Mass on Easter Sunday.  I am still mulling over designs in my head (read procrastinating), so I grabbed my scissors and PVA glue and placed all thoughts of stitching aside"....

Tutorial at Nina Makes Blog

"Easter is at the end of March this year…yes that’s pretty soon!  I didn’t want it to jump up and surprise me.  There is nothing worse than leaving it to the last minute and having to rush out and buy the (usually horrible or hugely expensive) left over eggs at the store.  So I decided to get organized! My Sister-in-law has four kids, and I like to get them similar but not exactly the same presents so no-one feels hard done by.  I also like to keep Easter presents pretty small and inexpensive with seven nieces and nephews and not to mention my two, it can easily get out of hand"....
