Your favorite seasonal candies all neatly packaged in a plastic Easter mason jar. Wrapped with a bow and perfect for gift giving or spring parties!
Looking for a fun and interactive party favor for a spring or Easter gathering? My girls and their friends had a lot of fun making their own little "Easter in a Jar" treats and it was so easy to do!
Each one went home with a cute little assortment of their favorite Easter candies neatly packaged in these plastic jars that I found online from Oriental Trading. They are about the size of a small peanut butter jar and were just the size I was looking for.
We started with a layer of lime jelly beans (to resemble grass) then added a cute little 3" solid chocolate bunny.
We filled in the empty space with chocolate eggs, but you could use Easter marshmallows or any kind of candy you'd like.
I love this colorful assortment of ribbon! The package came with 24 rolls, perfect for all kinds of crafts. We screwed the lids onto the jars, tied each with a bright bow, and our jars were complete!
Who would you give this little Easter mason jar to?
Fruit skewers dipped in yogurt, bunny sandwiches, chocolate carrots, macaroni and cheese, and pink lemonade. The perfect little luncheon for kids! We kept the menu simple and the tablescape easy (Thank you, Target Dollar Spot!)! It was a fun and stress-free afternoon with friends!
Whether you are new to sewing or have been sewing for years, these bunny pouches are fun to make and come together quickly. Fill them with candy or batting for the perfect Easter basket filler.

I love this cute idea! I have actually bought little easter gift boxes to fill for my two little girls but now I have seen this I want to make these instead 🙂
Simply adorable! Who wouldn't love to get one of these?? I too love Oriental Trading -- these jars are perfect and I didn't know they carried such a thing. Pinning -- great little gift idea!
This is such a cute idea! I like how you put the green jelly beans in the bottom of the jar. It looks like the "grass" that you see in the bottom of an Easter basket. These would be great party favors for an Easter party or dinner

This is such a fun idea and would be a great way to upcycle food jars. And the idea could be adapted for holidays and occasions throughout the year.

Super cute and easy! They would be a perfect favor for an Easter Egg Hunt--so much less expensive than filling baskets for all the kids.
