Three Egg-Cellent Easter Gift Ideas

Welcome back!

This entire blog is dedicated to one of my FAVORITE holidays, Easter! I don’t know what it is but I just die for everything Easter. I love the colors, I love the fun eggs, I love the candy, I love everything! And not to mention… Jellybeans are back! I love jellybeans more than anything. I blame a lot of the jiggle on my butt to jellybeans.

I am the person who gives gifts for literally every single little thing that I can. I love making people feel loved and happy. It takes two seconds to make someone's day! I may go a little over kill sometimes but it is just how I am! I am a chronic “over gifter” and I don’t even care! Do you think they have some sort of an addiction program for people who give gifts for too many reasons? Because if they do, I might have to go!

So, with me being the chronic over gifter that I am, I give Easter gifts to people! Some people might ask why and I ask why the hell not?!? Any who, I made three Easter gifts all without using a basket! Let’s be real, those little baskets are WAY to over priced and some of them are just straight up hideous. So, I kicked the basket idea to the curb and came up with some other things.

Let’s start for the gift I made for a little girl.

Thing’s I Used:

Twine

Mini Watering Can ($6 from Hobby Lobby)

Tootsie Pop Bundle

Mini Packet of Starburst Jelly Beans

Socks ($1 from Target)

Tissue Paper

Cardstock Paper

Fun Scissors

What You Do:

Fill the watering can with tissue paper, place the candy in the watering can, then throw a cute little label on and you’re done! I made my label on the computer, printed it out on cardstock paper, and cut it up with a designed scissors!

This is perfect for your niece, cousin, Goddaughter, whoever! You can literally make this for less than $5! The most expensive part of mine was the watering can BUT Target has some in their $1 section! I already bought mine before I noticed them at Target! I know that my little love bug of a cousin/niece LOVES to help in the garden and I just thought that this little watering can was the cutest thing I have ever seen. It is perfect for little girls!

The label says "Have an Egg-Cellent Easter!"

Gift I made for my friend.

Thing’s I Used:

Mason Jar and Lid

Tissue Paper

“Barley Bloomed” Maybelline Rebel Bloom Lipstick (perfect spring nude)

“Fifth Avenue” China Glaze Nail Polish (one of my favorite shades)

Twix Egg

Cadbury Egg

Twine

Fabric

Cardstock Paper

Fun Scissors

What You Do:

Grab your Mason jar, put tissue paper, fill it with the nail polish, lipstick, and candy, put twine around the rim of the jar with your label, put fabric over the top, then put the cap on! Done! Easy and simple!

 This one was more expensive because of the lipstick and the nail polish! Like I said, you can fill it with what you want! You also don’t need to buy $7 nail polish.

This gift can be for your sister, your friend, your daycare lady, your super amazing co-worker, whoever! Most people are probably thinking “who the hell gets their friend something for Easter?” and that is totally fine! I am just giving you guys some options. And side note, I have some pretty AMAZING friends so they deserve some love. Like, I said… chronic over gifter… chronic over gifter…  

The label says "Have an Egg-Cellent Easter!"

Gift for your boyfriend or husband.

Let’s just throw this out there right away because I am sure some people are like “Clarissa has a boyfriend?!?” and the answer is no! I made an Easter gift for my non-existent boyfriend to help all of you guys out in the love world! It takes one little thing like this to make your boyfriend or husband think that you are the best damn thing in the world! Gotta keep that romance alive people! I always say I should be a relationship counselor. New career path on the horizon? I think so!

Things I used:

Tin Thing ($10 from Hobby Lobby)

News Paper

Tissue Paper

Grain Belt Beer (Hometown pride!)

Oreo’s

Candy

Beef Jerky

Double Sided Tape

Cardstock Paper

Fun Scissors

What You Do:

Grab your tin thing, fill it with newspaper, maybe even stuff it with some other stuff, cover up the newspaper with tissue paper, fill it with all of your things you bought, make your little sign and tape it to the front! Boom. Best girlfriend of the year award goes to you!

If there is one thing I know, it's that most guys like candy, Oreos, beef jerky, and they LOVE beer (if he is 21).  You can fill it with what ever your boyfriend likes! He likes fishing? Go get him some lures! He has a certain type of candy he loves? Go out and buy that candy! Want to know another way to melt his heart? Scratch the Oreo’s and actually make him homemade cookies! The guy would probably keel over and die from excitement if you made him cookies rather than bought them.

Also, the reason why I bought the tin thing is because I know guys dig the whole “night with the bros” idea and now your boyfriend can throw some ice in the tin thing and fill it with beer and hey, less trips to the fridge on guy nights! There ya go babes!

I may have to give this gift away to one of my friends for their boyfriend because it turned out too damn cute!

The label says "Happy Easter to an Egg-Cellent boyfriend!"

There you go! Three cute, affordable, and fun Easter gifts! Like I said, there are so many options that a person can do with these gifts! You can mix and match or completely change them! You can add some ribbon if you want to, you can  say screw the ribbon like I did. You can make them more expensive, you can make them less expensive! The options are endless! These are just some ideas! I have many more ideas for things like teacher gifts, class gifts, and what not! Don't be shy to ask! I got a lot of crafty knowledge up in my brain!

Have an “EGG-CELLENT” Easter!

XOXO,

Clarissa
