  1. These turned out very cute! These aren't just for the kids. I made these to take to work at Easter-time (all adults). I displayed them in a large basket as suggested and it looked great. Everyone loved them.
     
  2. I saw this project elsewhere on the web and made a version by sewing a plastic freezer bag (I posted a tutorial at http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/easter_bunny_carrots) as I only needed 4 "carrots for my son's Easter Basket, but can vouch that this is a great alternative to all to filling an Easter basket with candy and was a hit with my son.
     
  3. Just made this for the Easter basket tomorrow morning. So cute!
     
  4. My sister asked me to make something special to bring to my little nieces birthday party. I made Recipe #163034 for the kids and adults, but I wanted something special for the kids to take home, so I made these. I filled them with M&M's and they were a HUGE HIT!!! They are NOT just an Easter idea after all :)
     
  5. What a wonderful idea! These were a big hit in our house. We had lots of fun making these and those who received them were thrilled. I love the idea from little_wing of making the carrots out of a variety of orange foods! We will try that next year. Thanks for the fun idea!
