Craft Corner: Make your own Easter Jars & Bunny Card

We may have only just had half-term but Easter is less than 6 weeks away. This month’s Bostik theme is centred around Easter and I have two easy-peasy crafts for you. They’re perfect for little ones to have a go at.

Make your own Easter Jars

Make your own Easter Jars

These are so simple to do but look great! I’ve used one as an Easter Egg gift and one for decoration and I think they’d look great brightening up the home in the run up to Easter.

You will need following:

  • Glass Jar
  • Shredded paper in different colours
  • Easter Decorations (I bought mine from Tesco)
  • Mini Eggs (optional)
  • Easter Bunny Chocolate (I used a Lindt Bunny)
  • Ribbon

1. Start by popping some shredded paper into the base of your jar. Use a pen to push them down if needed.

2. Next, unwrap your chocolate bunny and place into the jar. Pop some chocolate mini eggs and decorations on either side of the bunny

3. Next, fold your card in half (we made our A5 size) and glue your ears onto the inside of the card making sure they are facing the right way round.
