Easter Peeps crafts are easy and fun for both kids and adults! If you love the candy, you’ll also love making these unique holiday projects. Get over 20 ideas perfect for spring.
Ah, Peeps – those colorful, squishy, sugar-coated marshmallow treats that pop up every Easter. You know what I’m talking about, right?
Those little guys that look like they’re straight out of a cartoon. In the great candy debate, Peeps are like the pineapple on pizza of the confectionery world – you either adore them or can’t stand the sight of them.
As for me? I’m a proud member of team Peep-love!
But it’s not just about eating them (though, let’s be honest, that’s pretty great too). It’s about getting crafty with them!
This Easter, I’m taking my Peep-enthusiasm to a whole new level with over 20 Peep crafts. And I’m not just talking about sticking them on a cake and calling it a day. We’re going full-on Peep-tastic here!
I’ve scoured the land of sugar-coated marshmallows and have put together a collection that would make even the Easter Bunny do a double-take.
Whether you’re a fan of using the actual candy or you prefer projects that are “Peeps themed,” there are options here for both.
From wreaths that’ll make your door the envy of the neighborhood to centerpieces that will have your guests doing a double-take, these crafts are not just unique; they’re downright adorable.
Think of it as a way to pay homage to this iconic Easter treat, or maybe just a fun way to keep the kids (and let’s be honest, the adults too) entertained.
And for those who fall into the ‘not-a-Peep-fan’ camp, trust me, these crafts might just convert you. They’re that cute. Plus, it’s a great way to use up any leftover Peeps that somehow (miraculously) didn’t get eaten.
So, are you ready to hop into the world of Peeps crafts? Scroll down and prepare to be amazed. Each of these 20+ projects is a mini celebration of these sugary critters.
And hey, while you’re at it, why not munch on a marshmallow bunny or two? After all, crafting with Peeps is serious business – you need to keep your energy up!
