Easter is only two weeks away and everyone is on the ‘hunt’ for fun Easter activities and crafts. Today, I pulled out one of my Martha Stewart favs from the archives. From the chocolate bunny to the weighted egg tablecloth holders, this post is a good one to share again!

The countdown is on to Easter and making crafts to brighten your spring home can be fun and get the kids and you in the holiday spirit! From ideas for your table to playful ways to entertain outdoors (like egg weights to keep the table cloth down!)
Martha Stewart Living always has great ideas to inspire and be creative. Take a look at a few of my favorites. For more Easter craft ideas visit the site and get ready for a flood load of Easter inspiration.

Clover Basket
This fanciful green-meadow vignette seems a fitting home for a chocolate bunny. His eyes (dabs of tinted royal icing) and bow-tie (ribbon with a glued-on rosette) match his surroundings. Click here for the How-To instructions.
Decorated Egg Weight
Use a plastic egg filled with jelly beans to anchors your tablecloth; gingham ribbon is secured around the egg with hot glue and threaded through a hole that has been punched in the oilcloth.
Easter Bunny Garland
To bring some festive cheer to your dessert table, march the rabbits across a garland, sit them atop cupcakes, or use them to offer sneak peeks into gift bags.
Garland: Download and print the rabbit template. Trace onto vellum; cut out shape. Punch 2 holes in head; thread with yarn. Repeat as desired.
Metallic Polka-Dotted Eggs
There are whimsically polka-dotted and beribboned silver blown-out eggs, filigreed sterling silver “baskets,” and, of course, dapper chocolate bunnies — here, white chocolate, tied with ribbons to match the dots.
