The easiest, quickest, cutest, mess-free Easter craft/gift. I spotted cupcake cases when I was at the shops and thought they would make perfect nests for Easter chicks. It’s fun and easy for kids to assemble, or they can be given as gifts.
Materials
I found all of the materials for this craft at a discount store. Most supermarkets, and craft stores like Spotlight, will have them too.
Cupcake cases
Shredded paper (variation: crepe paper, cellophane)
Chicky
Small Easter Eggs (solid foil Easter Eggs work well)
Clear plastic wrap cases & Ribbon (optional – if you want to wrap and give as a gift)
Easter Cupcake Case Nest
1. Fill the cupcake case with shredded paper. I didn’t use anything to secure the paper to the base of the cupcake case, but a bit of craft glue would work well as an option.
2. Nestle the chicks into the paper.
3. Add a few Easter eggs.
Option: Wrap in a plastic gift bag and add a ribbon.
Use
- Gift
- Craft
- Play
- Table place settings (add a piece of paper with a name written on it)
