One of the things I love about being a blogger is that I read a lot of other blogs and I see a lot of great ideas.

Dollar Store Crafts had a cute idea for some garden carrot party favors. I loved the idea so much, I ran out to the Dollar store to see what I could find. Lucky for me, I found just about everything I needed to make my own version.

 I found everything I needed for these at Dollar Tree, but I saw these carrot eggs other places too.

Supplies:

• Planter
• Floral Foam or other filler
• Carrot Easter eggs 8/$1 at Dollar Tree
• Empty egg carton
• Egg filler, such as jelly beans
• Green Paper shred

Directions:

 Step 1. Place some floral foam in the planter to get some height for your eggs.

Step 2. Add your egg carton and paper shred.

 Step 3. Fill your carrot eggs with candy and insert into the egg cartons. You will probably want to fill in with more grass after you place your eggs.

I made two of these to put on the table of my Easter egg hunt. That way even the adults could get some eggs, even though they weren’t out hunting in the grass for them.

I received this adorable egg Ferris wheel from a friend, so I threw some carrots in there too. I just love all the clever eggs you can buy now. There are so many more options than just the plain plastic eggs.
