Easter Buddies + An Easter Pinterest Party

// Easter Buddies with Free Printable // 

I have decided that when it comes to candy and all around cuteness… Easter is my favorite holiday.  I mean really, Cadbury Mini Eggs, Jelly Beans, Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs, Cadbury Creme Eggs, black jelly beans, the list could go on and on. Not to mention all of the cute Easter goodies that they have available at the stores these days.

I’m a sucker for fun plastic eggs and I found this CUTE set of animal Easter eggs at Target and thought it would be perfect little goodie for my kiddos. I could add a fun curled up message along with the candy inside, add some feet to the bottom of the plastic eggs and they turn them into something extra special…

This project is super quick and with my free printable, you can make them up in a snap! Here’s what you will need…

Supply List

• Animal Easter Eggs
• card stock paper
• Elmer’s Craft Bond Foam Mounting Shapes
• scissors
• printer paper
• pencil
• candy

Instructions

First,  you will need to print the free printable sayings on just your basic printer paper…

You can download the printable HERE.

Once you have that printed, you will need to use scissors or a paper cutter to cut out the strips and then curl them around a pencil…

Next cut out some small 1- 1 1/2 inch hearts to use as the feet for your little animal eggs…

I used my Cricut Explore, but you could easily use any cutting machine or free hand it as well.  Then you will use your Elmer’s Craft Bond foam circles to affix the feet to the egg. These little foam adhesives are PERFECT for this project.

They have just the right amount of hold to keep those little buddies standing strait without hardly any fuss.  And just like that, you’re a rock star!

Add some Cadbury Mini Eggs and you’re really ROCKIN’!  There you have it, this simple yet super fun Easter Buddy project…
