If you think mini ceramic flower pots are just for herb gardens, you haven't laid eyes on these bunny pots by Shauna of Ella and Annie. Paint pots with white primer, then doodle a mouth and eyelashes with a permanent chalk marker. For bunny noses and cheeks, use dips and dotters to dab on pearlized pink and blue paints. Cut foam sheets to make bunny ears and feet (Shauna used foam hearts!), and glue on a glittery pom-pom for a fluffy tail. Skip the dirt and fill each pot with no-mess tissue paper grass for beautiful color and texture.

Who knew paper plates could be so eye-catching? Shauna of Ella and Annie let her kids flip over oval dinner plates and turn them into egg-like pieces of art. Children can use assorted Easter stamps, paint dotters, mini markers, and Washi tape to add color and pattern to their plates and put a unique, personal spin on each design. Display them on a tabletop, or prop them up on a bookshelf or windowsill to enjoy throughout the house.

Give your front door a hoppy-go-lucky accent with a colorful Easter wreath. Haeley from Design Improvised wrapped a wreath form with pink satin ribbon and made quick work of its sweet embellishments by using foam craft kits (she combined the bunny and egg craft kits for this particular wreath). Let little ones assemble the bunnies and eggs while you wrap the wreath, and together you can glue them into place!
