Last Minute Easter Projects

March 30, 2010 By Spoonful of Sugar - 9 Comments

Fave Crafts  has published a free eBook with 19 Easter craft projects to decorate your home, give as gifts and just enjoy making! Sarah and I are thrilled that our Edible Easter Blooms arrangement has been included. You can find it over at Fave Crafts.

One of my favourite Easter projects was the Candy Carrots that I made last year. They are especially good to make for anyone who is diabetic as they can be filled with sugar free candy.

 These Easter bunnies I made for a magazine last year are also quick to whip up.

One of the cutest projects I have seen this year is the fabric carrots that Clare from Clare’s Craftroom has made. You can find the tutorial here. How sweet would it be leaving out a plate of these carrots for the Easter bunny?

Hope your Easter preparations are going well!

    I nearly made the Candy Carrots with my Kindy classes this week, but I have to think more about what the children can make that is orange to put inside them! I’m sure I’ll think of something by next year! Love them anyway! Check out my blog to see what we did make with the kids. Wendy xx

    Congrats on having your project published! And I love the candy carrots; my son doesn’t like chocolate (really not sure how he can be related to me!) and I am always stumped to find a cute replacement for the chocolate bunny. The carrots will be perfect!
