Fun with Easter Bonnets (Second Edition)

in_your_easter_bonnet_by_cherishedmemories

Last year, I did a post on Easter bonnets which has received a great reception, even to this day. So I decided to do another Easter bonnet post for this Easter. While the one above might seem like a crazy Easter bonnet to some, keep in mind that this picture was taken at a time when such large hats were in style like the turn of the 19th century. But while Easter bonnets have been a long standing tradition, it’s only been recently that they’ve become the Easter equivalent to the Christmas sweater. And in some major cities like New York, it’s not unusual for people to parade the streets in their wildly outrageous Easter hats. And believe me, a lot of them are so big that make you wonder how they manage to deal with neck pain afterwards. Because those hats must be a lot of trouble to keep your head up. Nevertheless, a lot of these people who wear such hats usually make their own because they might find it fun. And as you see while a lot of these have Easter themes, some of them have a special creative spin. So for your Easter reading pleasure, here is another treasure trove of wacky and wonderful Easter bonnets.

  1. Some people eat chocolate eggs while others use them for decoration.
Man, that's a big waste of chocolate as far as I'm concerned. But at least the stuffed bunny is adorable.

2. Sometimes it helps to go simple and start small.

This one has a headband as well as a sparkly bunny and eggs. Still, love the bow.

3. Well, this hat’s sure becoming a real bird’s nest.

Sure those are pom pom chicks. But they really seem to be making a mess in that rabbit hat.

4. Of course, it helps if your hat is surrounded by chicks.

Yes, the pom pom chicks are hanging from the hat. But at least they're there for the portrait.

5. Seems like she’s wearing a bird’s nest this Easter.

Well, the look is intentionally anyway. But the birds and eggs seem to be of different colors.

6. How about some carrots on your porkpie?

This seems to be an easy Easter bonnet look as you see. Just add carrots to a porkpie hat and you're good to go.

7. On a purple Easter bonnet, you can’t have too many lilies.

Nevertheless, I wish I could see the whole hat but part of it was cut from the photo. Sometimes you have to do with what you have.

Well, egg Easter bonnet anyway. Still, not sure how someone should wear this thing.

12. It’s not an Easter bonnet without the rabbit ears.

Then again, the tradition of outrageous Easter bonnets might predate the ugly Christmas sweater. This one certainly comes from the 1950s.

As I'm aware, Angry Birds seems to be a popular motif for Easter bonnets. This is especially pertaining to boys.

Easter Candy No One Likes in Their Baskets or Eggs

FYF-855

Like Halloween, Easter has a long tradition pertaining to candy. After all, it’s what most kids find in their Easter baskets or inside their eggs (assuming they’re the plastic ones that open). And there are plenty of candies associated with Easter alone. I always enjoyed Easter egg hunts as a child whether it was in the front yard during the morning before church or at my grandparents’ house. I also participated in at least one in college. For a long time, egg hunts were one of the big reasons I looked forward to Easter as a kid. However, once I reached a certain age, it was time for me to bow out, especially since I’m the oldest of 24 grandchildren. And my participation wouldn’t be fair as an adult in a childish activity. I do help hide Easter eggs in my grandparents’ back yard for Easter and maybe help some of my cousins find the eggs. But somehow it’s not the same. Not to mention, since I’ve outgrown my eligibility for the Easter egg hunt at my grandparents’, Easter has become considerably less enjoyable for me since I’m mostly stuck socializing with relatives. Nevertheless, I can talk of all the Easter candies I like such as the chocolate bunny. But you’d probably be bored out of your mind that I wouldn’t get many views. So instead I’ll focus on Easter candy that most people don’t like. So without further adieu, I have this list for you. This has nothing to do with nutritional value but mostly quality of taste or whether it’s appropriate.

  1. Pez- This candy is basically the poster child of products that aren’t as popular as their packaging. I mean the only reason why people buy Pez is because of the dispensers. But you’ll find nobody on earth who’d admit that these pocket size pills are tasty.

2. Marshmallow Peeps – Don’t get me wrong, I do like peeps. Just not for eating. However, these are just inedible sugar coated marshmallows that are basically inedible. At least they’re great for decorating and making amusing dioramas out of for annual contests. And they should be better used that way. That or putting them in the microwave to watch them explode, but let’s be honest, the end result might not be good for your microwave. The Houston Press has a different view, “We’ll be honest. These things? Terrify us. Spun sugar masquerading as multi-neon-colored marshmallow doesn’t come close to existing in nature. Therefore, it shall not exist in us. We shall henceforth refer to them as Creeps.”

3. Marshmallow Carrot- From Houston Press: “Oh, come on. Mock carrot candy even makes vegetarians want to barf. Who was the brains behind this idea? Perhaps it was an entrepreneurial parent’s way to bait-and-switch a finicky child into eating more veggies. Too bad they suck, and now the kid hates candy, carrots and Easter. What’s next — Broccoli fluff? Good grief.”

4. Fluffy Cotton Tails- From Houston Press: “These things are basically the candy form of Jolt Cola: monstrously disgusting sugar bombs. An entire bag of cotton candy boiled down into bite-sized nuggets for you and yours. Avoid them as if your life depended on it.”

x354-q80

5. Cadbury Crème Eggs- From Houston Press: “Remember the commercials in which the Easter Bunny gives birth to the Cadbury Crème Eggs? And then they open them up to reveal sugary, yolk-colored innards? Yeah. We still have nightmares, too. How these things have stayed on the market for so long is one of life’s greatest mysteries.”

6. Jordan Almonds- From Houston Press: “Hey kids, who wants to break a tooth? Because that’s a distinct possibility when you bite into an accursed Jordan almond, a tasty-sounding treat that’s simply an almond coated in sugar. Too bad the sugar coating tastes more like chalk than anything found in a kitchen, and the almonds contained within are generally flavorless. The reason they’re considered an Easter candy even though they can be purchased year-round is that they’re pastel-colored. And that’s about it. I guess they’re sort of egg-shaped, too, but in reality, Jordan almonds have about as much to do with Easter as a pebble. (The pebble might taste better, though.)”

7. Bunny Munny- I remember getting these as a kid. They’re basically chocolate coins with rice in them. But they don’t taste particularly great. Someone at the Houston Press commented, “This treat is particularly offensive to me because it masquerades as something delicious. Chocolate with a bit of crispy rice in it? What could possibly be bad about that? How about the fact that they unfortunately taste more like cardboard with a slight chocolate flavor than actual chocolate? They purport to be made with real chocolate, but if that’s true, why do they taste so unfortunate? And can we talk about how offensive that spelling of “munny” is to anyone older than 10? Don’t purposefully misspell candy names to be cute! No one thinks it’s cute! Sidenote: On the Candy Warehouse website, there is actually a disclaimer, ‘Sorry, these treats are not a valid form of U.S. currency.’ In case you were confused.”

8. Bunny Basket Eggs/Easter Hunt Eggs – From Houston Press: “Brach’s is perhaps the worst offender on this list, bringing us three of the ten worst candies, direct from their testing and manufacturing plant in some faraway land where no one has taste buds. Bunny Basket Eggs are the least offensive of the three, featuring, essentially, fake gummy marshmallows surrounded by a coating of bad jelly bean. They stick in your teeth. They melt in your plastic eggs. They get awkward jelly bean coating color on your fingers. And what do you get for your trouble? Nastiness. Pretty much just a hunk of sugar that tastes like artificial fruit and giving up.” Marshmallows and gummy bears are a disgusting combination.

brachs-bunny-basket-marshmallow-easter-eggs-wmm-125236

9. Jelly Beans- I used to get these a lot on Easter, too. And to me they’re just kidney shaped colored candies that seem to have absolutely none to a horrible taste. It’s like they put some flavor and color to some waxy and rubbery concoction. Disgusting. The ones in my basket usually went to the garbage. Yes, I know there are plenty of people who love jelly beans. Yet, but to me that’s like saying that plenty people like John Wayne, Twilight, Fifty Shades, Fast & Furious, or reality shows. Just because something might be popular doesn’t mean it’s good.

10. Chocolate Cross- Yes, I know we celebrate Easter to recognize Jesus’s resurrection after his crucifixion. But while I love chocolate on any holiday like Easter, there are just things that shouldn’t be in chocolate form. A cross should be one of these things because that’s what Jesus suffered and died on. Not to mention, crucifixion was an execution method in which ensured the victim would endure a long and agonizing death through bleeding and suffocation while being nailed to a large cross of wood. Jesus went through this and it wasn’t pleasant at all. Yes, I’m sure Christians are willing to buy foodstuffs like this for their kids’ Easter baskets, but is it really appropriate? And as a practicing Catholic and a chocolate lover, such cross would lead me struggling with temptation, followed by guilt after eating it (as well as relishing in its taste), if I ever received one. If you want to raise your kids as good Christian children, I suggest good Christian parents go with chocolate eggs and bunnies instead. Sure they’re secular symbols but they come with a very low risk of committing accidental sacrilege.

11. Brach’s Chicks & Rabbits – From Houston Press: “These are the items I as a child most dreaded finding in Easter baskets or stuffed unceremoniously into plastic eggs at parties. What would I do if someone presented me with a bright-orange hunk of eraser disguised as candy? Would I feign delight and eat it anyway, then risk melodramatically gagging and spitting it out at the feet of my gracious host? Would I tuck it away to later slip to a poor, unwitting canine? Would I throw it nonchalantly into someone else’s basket. I honestly don’t remember what I did with the damn things, but I guarantee you I didn’t eat them. Fool me once…and all that jazz. The flavor is listed as “marshmallow,” which, if you believe the multitude of flavored-vodka products out there is, in fact, a genuine flavor. But these don’t taste anything like marshmallows. They’re essentially the same material as those off-putting orange Circus Peanuts candies–soft so long as they’ve never touched oxygen, but instantly hardening into toothbreaking plaster once exposed to the elements. Worse still, the candies only vaguely resemble the eponymous chicks and rabbits. They’re much more akin to totem poles or idols used for some bizarre, decidedly not Easter-y ritual. Consume at your own risk.”

12. Easter Candy Corn – You got to be kidding me. They actually have this? These sugar wax candies aren’t even great on Halloween, let alone on any other holiday like Easter. Not to mention, they even look more disgusting in pastel colors.

13. Nerds Bumpy Jelly Beans – All right, that just makes jelly beans more disgusting as by giving it grotesque growths. Also, kind of look like fruity brains.

2315461869_b96551f56d

14. Wonka Hoppin’ Nerds Candy- From E!: “Nerds are definitely a solid candy choice, unless they are called “bumpy” (see above). But they don’t really scream “Easter.” They do scream “capable of cracking a filling,” but whatever.”

wonka-hoppin-nerds-candy-132148-im11

15. Lindt Chocolate Carrots – From E!: “Fancy chocolate for when you want to feel better after eating 20 Butterfinger eggs (more on that later). But this candy is only special because of the wrapping, not because of the taste.”

Lindt-Chocolate-Carrots-Easter-Treat-0

16. Whoppers Easter Mini Robin Eggs- Oh, I remember getting these from egg hunts. Lovely to look at and have hard shells that they don’t need wrappers. However, they tend to taste a bit crunchy and chalky. Also, can be mistaken for Cadbury Mini Eggs, so check wisely.

17. Chocolate Covered Peeps- From Paste: “To say that chocolate-covered Peeps are not aesthetically pleasing would be a gross understatement—they look like something your insolent dog might leave as a surprise in your loafers for daring to challenge his authority. The chocolate coating is terrible. The artificial, gummy marshmallow inside isn’t much better. These Peeps went a long way toward turning Paste editor Josh Jackson against the idea of chocolate-coated marshmallows in general, which would be great, if there weren’t three or four more of the exact same style of candy on the table.” In other words, they’re saying that these aren’t much better from their disgusting sugar coated marshmallow counterpart and resemble dog turds. At least in chick form for the latter.

18. Little Beauty Chocolate Bunny- From Paste: “The worst pure chocolate on the table, this thing was so bad that it made us scan the ingredients list, where “cocoa” is the fourth ingredient—after “sugar,” “vegetable oil” and “whey.” Because you definitely want more sugary whey in your chocolate than actual chocolate. So sugary that some of our teeth manifested spontaneous sympathy cavities in protest.”

Little Beauty Milk Chocolate Bunny.png

19. Frankford Marshmallow Chicks and Bunnies- From Paste: “A big multi-bag where all the marshmallows are stuck together into one mass you get to pry apart with your hands” is not the most promising origin for Easter candy, and indeed, this was one of the least pleasant things on the table. They’re simple, you can say that for them. It’s just a bag of simple, pastel-colored, really awful marshmallows. Make of that what you will.”

20. Reese’s White Chocolate Peanut Butter Eggs- Now while Reese’s might have a reputation for making their holiday shaped candies shaped like turds, at least they’re tasty. Yet, you wouldn’t want to eat one from the ground in a dog park. However, I’m not sure if white chocolate and peanut butter should even go together. And it’s said you can barely taste the chocolate to begin with.

reeses-white-chocolate-eggs

21. Sour Watermelon Peeps- I’ll let Paste explain these since I’ve never been near such candies. From Paste: “Oh no. Oh NO. What in the hell are these things? We thought we had seen weird and objectionable, and then along came the watermelon-flavored Peeps. We’re disturbed by the very idea of the concept’s genesis—who in their right mind looked at the marshmallow of a Peep and thought that pink, artificially watermelon-flavored sludge would be a great way to improve it? This person needs to be locked up. If he or she is walking among us, then society is not safe. The mere fact that Paste Music/TV editor Bonnie Stiernberg seemed to oddly enjoy these Peeps (in opposition to everyone else) is cause for suspicion and alarm.”

22. Palmer Hollow Chocolate Flavored Bunny – Yes, it’s a very cute chocolate bunny on the outside. However, its taste is bound to disappoint you once the stuff is in your mouth as described akin to milk powder and peanut shells. Candy Blog called this, “the Easter equivalent to a lump of coal.”

palmer-bunnies-photo

23. Twizzler Easter Grass Candy- It’s supposed to be green apple and unlike other Twizzlers, it’s presented as loose and tangled like grass or as if everyone touched it. But those at Time Out Chicago said it’s taste could range from pesto pasta, paste-a, or medicine.

24. Bunny Poop- These are little balls chocolate covered cookie dough which would taste great that come from a wind up pooping rabbit. It’s inspired by the plastic wind up chicken that lays eggs. Nevertheless, it’s on here because of the cookie dough which is uncooked food which may taste great but it’s not something you should eat. And I mean because it’s teeming with E. Coli bacteria which has led to death. For instance consumption of uncooked pieces of the famous Nestle Toll House cookie dough sickened several dozen people and killed one woman in 2009. Now a candy’s nutritional value is one thing that I can let slide, but food safety is a whole another matter. And any product that contains raw cookie dough should be avoided. Seriously, for the love of God, don’t eat cookie dough raw.

25. Hershey’s Easter Kissables- Think of Hershey’s kisses covered in pastel wax, which don’t melt into your mouth but greasily slide down your throat. Well, that was only in 2005 and 2006. In 2007, Hershey’s decided to swap cocoa butter, chocolate, and cane sugar with corn syrup as well as palm, shea, and sunflower oil. Also, these were topped with an ominous sounding “resinous glaze.” Such ingredient suggestion led the FDA declare Hershey’s Kissables as unqualifiable any longer as “milk chocolate.” They were yanked in 2009. Now if anyone finds package of these horrendous candies, they’re most often used as substitutes for game pieces.

2310886034_359479e6e8_z

26. Carrot Cake M&Ms- From Carl Anthony Online: “There is no real chocolate in this chocolate, of course. Following the same course of poor choices with “white chocolate,” these Easter specialty version of the beloved M&M are unusually dry (like cake lacking moisture!), the only discernible flavor being a vague aftertaste of sour cream (does this suggest the “white chocolate” has spoiled?)” He suggests if they were sold for St. Patrick’s Day as Irish Crème, nobody would know the difference.

27. Carrot Cotton Grape Candy – From Carl Anthony Online: “Made exclusively by Bunnyland Candy, there’s potential for a whole new world of Easter Candy possibilities by the innovative use of the ephemeral spun sugar sweet which is ubiquitous still at carnivals, fairs and circuses. Carrot Cotton Candy makes sense enough as the famously favored food of rabbits, Easter or otherwise. Stuffed into this cellophane bag shaped like a giant carrot, you’ll find sticky, fluffy cotton candy colored in an earthy tone of orange. Yet, oddly, its flavor bears no discernible similarity to the earthy vegetable. While perhaps that’s a blessing, it would seem logical enough that the pleasant taste of “orange” would be a good match. Inexplicably, however, its flavored grape.

28. Hotlix Candy- For over 25 years, this company has made candies with real insects in them now coated in fruit flavoring. Yes, real deceased insects and I am not making this up. But they don’t exactly yell out “Happy Easter!” Nor are they something to put in a kid’s Easter basket. However, they might be a fine addition to a Halloween trick or treat bag though.

29. Wasabi Candy- For those who don’t know, wasabi is the Japanese name for what we call horseradish, which we put on burgers. Nevertheless, this candy does exist, but it’s not something a kid would want for Easter. As Hello Giggles notes, “In general, yes – wasabi candy exists. And I can’t think of any holiday that it’s appropriate for, unless you want to inflict punishment on somebody. If you put these monsters in your child’s Easter basket this year, you’re just asking for a meltdown.”

30. Bertie Bott’s Every Flavor Beans- It’s from the Harry Potter collection. However, unlike regular jelly beans, these ones don’t pretend to be disgusting. And I mean they have every flavor. Sure some might be pleasant but they also have earthworm, earwax, vomit, and booger. Definitely not Easter basket material, unless those of diehard Harry Potter fans.

61EAIgPBVpL._SX425_

31. Edible Easter Grass- Yes, it’s supposed to look like grass and taste like fruit. But it’s very strange. Sure you can use it for Easter baskets to put candy in it. But that’s like having candy on top of your candy.

32. Ghost Pepper Candy- Since it was called the World’s Hottest Pepper in 2007, I suppose any ghost pepper candy is bound to burn in anyone’s mouth. Might be great for adults but kids would be crying after consumption.

ghost-pepper-candy

33. Chocolate Gold Jesus- From Hello Giggles: “The Chocolate GoldJesus is more of a work of art. This certificated, high quality, fairly traded, organic chocolate aims to donate profits to charitable organizations, which is fantastic. Also it’s Easter related. So what’s the issue? Well, I’d have a really hard time eating this. I’d almost feel bad. I’d think of numerous excuses to save my Chocolate GoldJesus for a special occasion, but no occasion would ever be good enough. And I don’t think I’m alone, since the company has since offered a bronze statue (non-edible!) that’s made in the same cast as its chocolate counterpart.”

34. Zombie Bunny Lollipop- For the record, with the popularity of such shows as The Walking Dead, this one was more or less made for adults. I mean there’s too much blood. Also, it tastes like cotton candy.

Zombie-Bunny-Lollipop

35. Russell Stover Eggs (Wedding Cake, Birthday Cake, Birthday Cake, and Cookie Dough or anything other than conventional flavors)- The cake flavored ones are said to taste like butter inside chocolate. But those at Time Out Chicago think they come with a weird aftertaste and are all gritty in an unpleasant way. Best stick with chocolate, marshmallow, peanut butter, caramel, brownie, and fudge, Russell Stover.

36. Jolly Rancher Bunny Food Gummies- These gummies are shaped like veggies and are supposed to taste fruity. Taste has been likened to stuff like corn syrup, chemicals, and floor cleaner. Let’s just say rabbits wouldn’t want these.

jolly-rancher-gummi-bunny-food

37. Strawberry Chocolate Bunny- Why the hell would anyone make something like this? Chocolate bunnies should only come in 3 flavors milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and vanilla for those allergic to chocolate. This is disgusting. As Carl Anthony Online notes: “In truth, the Strawberry Easter Bunny has all but disappeared, some reported sightings on back road grocer shelves made by shady confectioners. Luckily, among those colorful critters more readily ferreted out are made to order from precious candy makers using purer ingredients than in past decades – and astronomical prices.”

38. Sour Bunny Jolly Rancher- From Paste: “Like a lot of sour candies, these twists on a jolly rancher are more interested in being sour than in delivering the original intent of the product (deliciously artificial fruit flavors). We can’t imagine any scenario where regular Jolly Ranchers wouldn’t be considered superior.”

jolly-ranchers-sour-bunny-gummy-candy-ff-130699

39. Jelly Bean Nougat- Okay, jelly beans and nougat, that’s pretty disgusting in my book. Dear Brach’s, I hate you.

image (1)

40. Black Jelly Beans- From Mommyish:” The packaging on a bag of all black jelly beans should really read: For the people who hate joy. There’s something so sad and disappointing about digging through all that plastic grass and coming up with a dry, black jelly bean.”

61t1zxA2joL._SX425_

41. Spiced Jelly Beans- From the Stranger: “For those of us who like a candy that tastes lightly poisoned, Easter season is a dream, thanks primarily to Brachs’ Spiced Jelly Bird Eggs, a disgustingly intoxicating melange of seven different flavors of jelly beans riding the yummy/gross divide. Some are so gross I have to throw them out, but others are so delicious I eventually buy another bag.”

image (2)

42. Mallow Pals Squeezable Marshmallow- Said by one blogger, “Everything about this candy makes me sad. It does not taste good, and it is the lowest common denominator of candy. It is goo in a tube that you squeeze into your sad, disaffected, post-modern mouth. This candy indicates we are living in a post-candy world. Candy is dead, long live candy.”

7016769479_79f0a3ed05

43. Mystery Peeps- From Delish: “Much like Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Beans, you won’t know if these Peeps are fruity, savory, salty, or sour until you taste them! Whether that game is fun or terrifying, we’ll leave it up to you to decide.”

81X2q+DGLnL._SX522_

44. Zombie Chocolate Bunny- Great to have during an Easter apocalypse for yourself. Not so great for a child’s Easter basket. Also, more suitable for Halloween. And is more of a mockolate flavor, too.

chocolate-zombie-bunny-20110420-113620

45. Mary Sue Vanilla Butter Cream Eggs- From In Papa’s Basement: “In order for Cadbury Creme Eggs to exist, there had to be Mary Sue Butter Cream Eggs. Their filling is vile and extremely adhesive, rendering it impossible to gnaw off the chocolate coating without getting some of that venom in your mouth. Trying to eat their shell without ingesting any of the putrid cream contained within is the candy equivalent of a beautiful woman inviting you to bang her…so long as another dude rides shotgun anus. Things will start off okay. And then, at some point in the act, your scrot is going to brush against his. At that moment, as your innocence goes up in flames like Bill Compton on a Cabo San Lucas beach, you’ll realize you paid far too high a price for far too little reward.”

46. Gum Drops- Said to be the fruitcake of Easter. Not sure why these candies exist since they’re not really that tasty. More like something to decorate gingerbread houses with around Christmas. Other than that, I can’t be sure what else.

gum-drops

47. Bunny Teeth- These are gummy bunny teeth. Probably an attempt to rip off the gummy teeth concept of Halloween. It’s as morbid as it sounds.

gummy-bunny-teeth-easter-candy-packets-37_645a

48. Religious Suckers- Sorry, but despite Easter being a significant holiday celebrating Jesus’s resurrection, it’s not the time to remind children that they were born in sin. That’s the job for clergy and Sunday school teachers who probably let them know beforehand. Besides, it’s not appropriate for Easter for He has risen on that day.

49. Quax- From Gourmet Gift Baskets: “This yummy ducky (really, it says that on the package – as if that’s enticing) is a complete and total horror. It looks like Ernie’s bath time buddy, but it’s edible. (Well, maybe. It depends on how you consider okay to eat.) Boldly going where no others have gone before, this Easter treat has paved the way for milk-flavored candies everywhere. Now, I know what you’re thinking: what would a milk-flavored treat taste like? Like pure evil. So it’s no wonder that Quax remains the only candy of its kind.” Best used for scaring and traumatizing a small child or Ernie.

50. Bunny Chew- Because nothing looks more fun for kids than food that resembles either bunny pellets or dog chow.

Bunny-Chew-Treats-Kids

51. Naughty Bunny Chocolate Bars- Let’s just these are adult candies and not suitable for children at any rate. Brought to you by Bloomsbury.

Naughty-Bunny-Chocolate-Bars

52. Inspirational Jelly Beans- Yes, Easter is a religious holiday. But does that mean putting inspirational stuff on jelly beans appropriate for the occasion? That might be bordering on sacrilege.

Inspirational-Printed-Jelly-Beans

53. Walking with Jesus Fruit Snacks- Yes, walking with Jesus is an inspirational thing. But making fruit snacks out of his sandals? Not so much. Hey, look I know that Easter is a religious holiday and I know it has candy. But can you just give Jesus some respect and not put fruit snacks of his sandals in Easter baskets?

Walking-Jesus-Gummy-Treats

54. Crucified Peep Candy Cross- Yes, that may look cute. But is it really appropriate for an Easter basket? Not sure if it borders on sacrilege and bound to cause offense. Inedible sugary marshmallow offense.

Holy-Peepus-marshamallow-pe

55. Rabbit Change- Easter styled chocolate coins with carrots on the foil? No thanks. Chocolate coins are the work of the Devil.

rabbitchange

56. Russell Stover Coconut Nests- More or less resembles some jelly beans being lodged in dog turds. Also, combines two things I hate.

425402d0d9370d5ca88347f6ddfbaf88

57. Vegetables – Yes, you might want your kid to eat healthy. But this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t ditch candy and fill your kid’s Easter basket with veggies. Easter candy is an Easter tradition for God’s sake. There may be a place for veggies in your kids’ life but the Easter basket is not one of them.

58. Sour Patch Jelly Beans- Just when you think they couldn’t make jelly beans worse they had to make them sour. Also, sour candies are just terrible anyway.

x354-q80 (1)

59. Raisins- Sure they may be healthier than chocolate. But that doesn’t mean you should put them in a kid’s Easter basket so they’d mistake them for chocolate chips. That would be cruel.

810193934-1

60. Candy Canes- For one, they’re for Christmas. Second, put them in an Easter basket, and your kids will know that you’ve had these for months and probably have become entangled in some financial emergency.

18lp9oit3w8l9jpg

61. Camel Balls – Sure they may not be that bad, but you don’t want to give your kids a sour candy that has a camel’s testicles on the packaging. More like candy sold at Spencer’s Gifts at the mall.

camel_balls_2

62. Dingle Bearies- These are chocolate covered gummy bears. It’s a slightly offensive name but pretty disgusting.

dinglebeariesfront

63. Caramel Apple Peeps- From American Fun Fact of the Day: “To those of you not sold by our convincing argument of “ew, apple Peeps sound gross” let’s try this on for size—close your eyes (well, metaphorically—you kind of have to have your eyes open to read the rest of this) and imagine eating a Peep. Now imagine washing that down with a nice cool glass of apple juice. That gag reflex you just experienced is your body telling you that this is a horrible flavor for a Peep to have.”

desktop-1438801378

64. Candy Corn Peeps- All the great taste of Halloween sugary wax and sugary Easter marshmallow rolled into one.

candy-corn-peeps

65. Blue Raspberry Peeps- From American Fun Fact of the Day: “As an artificial flavor, blue raspberry is an affront to nature. We feel like it’s silly to point out that blue raspberries aren’t an actual thing that exists in nature, and that this is just a catchall term for kind of sweet, kind of tart food flavoring that tastes distressingly “blue” and is primarily found in syrup poured over ice, except for the fact that we can guarantee that at least, like, 25% of Americans totally think that blue raspberries are a real fruit.  But even the mouthbreathers who believe that can take one look at blue raspberry Peeps and say, with complete certainty, that they would rather drown in a silo of sugar before eating these monstrosities.”

61c1zwTV2FL._SX466_

66. Orange Delight Peeps- From American Fun Fact of the Day: “The fudge dipped Peeps are an abomination in their own right, but orange marshmallows dipped in orange fudge just seems like the worst combination of anything. Again, this is a simple matter of passing the “how do these ingredients, separated, seem like they would taste together.”  So sure, if you’re the kind of person that likes take bites out of an orange in between your Peeps, well, you’re a sociopath, but even you would have to draw the line at adding “orange flavored fudge” on top of all that.  We feel like we can’t say this enough—Peeps are not made to taste like fruit.  Stop trying to make them taste like fruit!”

orangeDelight_detail

67. Lime Delight Peeps- From American Fun Fact of the Day: “And also, who wants to eat lime fudge? No one, that’s who.  Lime fudge sounds like something your friend who moved to Germany primarily for sex parties would be into, and when he asks you if you “like lime fudge” you’d just sort of pretend like you know what he’s talking about and be like, “You know, I tried it once, but I just don’t think it was for me” before your friend rolls his eyes and calls you a cis.”

limeDelight_detail

68. Peeps Milk- Oh, for God’s sake, Peeps, do you have to make a sugary marshmallow monstrosity such as this? For the love of humanity, this is just the most inedible milk ever. Available in marshmallow, chocolate, and eggnog.

HT_peeps_milk_01_jef_150305_4x3_608

69. Carrot Cake Candy Corn- What the hell, another Easter variety? Seriously, nobody was asking for this. Hell, nobody was asking for candy corn for Halloween.

70. Easter Ring Pops- If Ring Pops are terrible as a Halloween candy, then Easter styled ones wouldn’t be great at all for an Easter basket.

Do the Bunny Hop in These Ugly Easter Sweaters

Snapshot_20160225_8

This is me in my pastel color turtleneck sweater that I’ve had for almost a decade. It’s not necessarily an Easter sweater nor is it ugly. But for a post like this, it’ll do. I’ve also did a pair of rabbit ears for good measure.

Since Easter is widely considered a spring holiday, it’s normally not associated with sweaters. But since Easter falls in early spring like in March and April, sometimes the weather could be rainy, cold, or erratic. And it’s not unheard of in my area to snow on the holiday which I have personally seen at least once. Yet, weather conditions aside, it appears that the lure of the ugly sweater is so great that they just have to have them for Easter as I’ve searched the depths of Google Images and Pinterest for them. And they are as charmingly ghastly as you’d expect with bunnies, eggs, chicks, and other motifs for your heart’s content. Not to mention, they’re in the pastel spring colors associated with the holiday, too. Some of them I’m wearing in the picture you see above if you get my drift. If you were a kid, you’d probably have seen them on your elementary school teacher. So for your reading pleasure, I bring you a treasure trove of some of the tackiest Easter sweaters around.

  1. Remember flowers must always be in their boxes at all times.
Hate to say this, but the cardigan would looked much better if the flowers weren't boxed in. Then again, ugliness is kind of the point.

2. On Easter, periwinkle always makes a bold fashion statement.

And this has bunnies at the crease as well as chicks with feathers on them. And some that don't.

3. Nothing makes a better Easter motif than a bunny carrying an Easter egg.

For some reason, that bunny looks a little sad as if Easter is a day of dread. Still, I think the egg is pretty.

4. Nothing is cuter on Easter than a sweater vest of bunnies in boxes.

And it's black so the bunnies stand out. The boxes also contain carrots and eggs for added tackiness.

5. Nothing makes a better Easter sweater than a cardigan of different colored bunnies.

Each row of bunnies is of a different color. But not all are facing the same way. Also, not sure about the light green sleeves.

6. Those who might think ugly Easter sweaters are too girly, might be fine with this bunny one.

This one is black with blue trim and a row of bunnies. Then again, Easter has never really been a manly holiday to celebrate anyway.

7. Those who love lambs and daffodils, have I got an Easter sweater for you.

This one is in the same style as some ugly Christmas sweaters you see. But this one has a more spring theme.

8. On any Easter sweater, you can’t have enough eggs, flowers, or bunnies.

This light blue one uses some degree of sequins to stand out. Also has short sleeves which is odd for a sweater. Then again, Easter takes place in spring.

9. You can always tell it’s an Easter sweater if it has bunnies on it.

Not sure of what to think about this sweater. The bunnies don't seem to look happy. But it's certainly tacky that I'll give it a space on this post.

10. Looks like these rabbits love to munch on the garden veggies in this patch.

Sure this might make a great scene for an Easter sweater. However, it's something you really don't want to see in real life. Trust me.

11. Of course, in mild weather you can always go with an Easter vest like this.

This one consists of a bunny in basket, Easter eggs, flowers, and other things. Nevertheless, it's incredibly tacky.

12. Sure it may seem like an ugly sweater, but check for chickens and bunnies to see if it’s for Easter.

This one has 2 rows of chickens and one row of bunnies. And the bunnies are all facing with their cotton tails.

13. Of course, there are some people who might prefer geese.

This one has geese in the top right corner. Yet, it's trimmed with blue gingham and pink roses.

14. To make the bunnies and eggs stand out, go with navy blue.

Yes, I know a lot of these contain Easter eggs and bunnies. But that's what you'd have to expect sometimes.

Yes, I know a lot of these contain Easter eggs and bunnies. But that’s what you’d have to expect sometimes.

15. On an Easter sweater like this, each item belongs in their respective columns.

This one has 2 columns with chicks and eggs as well as 2 with bunnies and carrots. But somehow this sweater is cute and tacky at the same time.

16. If you love funky colored animals, this is the Easter sweater for you.

I guess the chicks are silver, the bunnies are purple, the pigs are yellow, and the lambs are pink. Still, not sure if it's the kind of ugly Easter sweater I'd wear.

17. Seems like this rabbit is taking a walk with his dog on a lit street.

Of course, normally dogs are bigger than rabbits and tend to eat them. And believe me, I've seen this happen.

18. Sometimes on Easter, you have to stand out with some bright colors.

Yes, I know that a lot of Easter stuff tends to have pastel colors on them. This sweater tends to be an exception as you see. But still kind of an eyesore.

19. For a fuzzy cotton tail, may I suggest white feathers?

Not sure if feathers is appropriate for a bunny's cotton tail. But it sure makes this sweater look rather horrific.

20. For a simple design, why not go for a bunny with bows?

Sure those may not look like bows. But I'm sure this sweater is bound to be Easter appropriate in its own way.

21. On Easter, remember how much bunnies love flowers.

This one seems to depict fuzzy bunnies holding flowers. Some side by side.

You can barely see the pink in this turtleneck. But the row of bunnies certainly stand out.

The Eggscellent World of Easter Egg Dioramas

sect_easter_sugar-eggs_ea09c

While I was looking for stuff pertaining to Easter craft projects, I came across some Easter egg dioramas. For many years, the idea of making little Easter scenes has been some sort of tradition since the Victorian Era. So much so that there are now egg dioramas that now pertain to Christmas and other occasions. And I’m not kidding on this one. Nevertheless, most of these egg dioramas don’t use real eggs. Because obviously, opening real eggs make a mess and eggshells break very easily. In other words, they’re terrible for craft projects. Also, many of the bigger eggs are illegal like those of ostrich. So most opt for other materials like sugar, paper mache, etc. That way, people are able to work with something that’s dry both inside and out, doesn’t make a mess, or breaks easily. Also, with such materials, the egg can be any size you want. And as you see, many of these egg dioramas come in a variety of sizes and openings. However, unlike the pumpkin dioramas I showed you back in October for Halloween, these eggs usually contain a rather small space for decorating. Yet, as with a lot of craft projects and dioramas, there are plenty that can get rather elaborate. Don’t ask me how that is. In this post, I’ll introduce you to the world of these kinds of projects by showing ones I’ve found in places like Pinterest or Google Images. So without further delay, I bring you to the eggscellent world of these dioramas for Easter.

  1. A hollow egg can always serve as an abode for a fairy princess.
Not sure how they got those kind of windows in this one. But it really lets the light in for you to see.

2. What better place to build a nest than near a birdhouse?

This is a cute diorama. Love the little birds and flowers. Not sure whether the birds are supposed to be babies though.

3. Sometimes an egg can be more than what it seems when you look inside.

Yes, this egg might seem pretty outside. But inside, it's a world full of flowers with 2 bunnies facing each other.

4. So that’s what Tinkerbell’s home is supposed to look like.

For the record I'm not a fan of Peter Pan and think it's overrated as a Disney movie. Still, this diorama is very well done.

5. In this egg, you will find a fairy on a  beautiful unicorn.

So it doesn't have much to do with Easter. But neither does Tinkerbell. But I think this one is cool. So it goes on the post.

Some of these decorations come from vintage Easter cards. A couple have fake flowers in them.

12. For Lord of the Rings fans, this egg won’t disappoint you.

Well, this is of Arwen in Rivendale but you get the drift. Still, if I found an egg diorama of Gandalf the Fellowship, Gollum, or any hobbit, I'd gladly show it.

13. An Easter egg diorama like this could always use a couple of chicks.

And by that, I mean fluffy baby birds you want to hold in your hand. Because after all, they're a common motive for Easter.

I'm sure the rabbits here were cut out from some kit. And it looks crowded. But it's adorable.

17. Sometimes a sugar egg is just as lovely outside as inside.

A lot of these eggs are made from sugar with icing decorations. But that doesn't mean that you should eat them, though.

18. A lamb in grass always seems like a welcome sight.

On Easter, the lamb has a sacred tie to Passover as a sacrifice. And since Jesus died on the cross to redeem our sins, one of his nicknames is, "Lamb of God." Also, lambs are adorable.

19. Never thought I’d see a lavish Victorian home and carriage inside an egg like this.

20. Seems like these two are out and about on a lovely spring day.

And if they live in the American South, their furniture probably has slipcovers. Because lovely furnishings need protection from people's sweat because they wear heavy outfits unsuitable for warm weather.

21. Why use Easter grass when dried flowers and moss would do just fine?

This looks very pretty. Nevertheless, I like how it opens from the side. And how the flowers and moss give it an authentic touch.

22. Those wanting to be someplace warm might enjoy this egg diorama of Hawaii.

Sure many people might view tropical islands as paradise. But to me, I see it as a hotbed of tropical diseases and mosquitoes. Still, love the tiki statue and shell though.

24. Who’d expect to find anything in a golden egg but a singing angel?

Not sure if this egg is for Christmas or Easter. Then again, since both are Christian holidays, it really doesn't matter either way.

25. As everyone knows, spring is always a time of flowers and butterflies.

The flowers might be made out of paper and flowers might be fake. But it still looks as if you're close to the scene, doesn't it?

32. While growing up, who can remember hearing the story of the princess and the pea?

Of course, they could've saved a lot of trouble to determine whether she was a princess and just do a bit of a background check. Or consult a genealogist. Also how could feeling a pea make you unable to sleep? Doesn't make sense.

Yes, this is another Arwen and it was apparently made by someone with too much time on their hands. Yet, it's sure pretty if you ask me.

Easter Greetings from the Days of Yesteryear (Second Edition)

vintage-easter-greeting-card_19-141896

As we all know, Easter is the season in which motifs of eggs, lambs, chicks, bunnies, and other cute stuff pertaining to spring. And it was not much different back then as it is today as you might see from vintage cards like this one above. Well, this one has a religious theme but that’s beside the point. However, last year I did a post on vintage Easter greeting cards which was quite successful. I know it’s not really a thing nowadays, but that doesn’t mean people don’t send greeting cards for holidays. Because according to Hallmark’s figures, there’s a following that certainly does. Nevertheless, since my post on vintage Easter cards was relatively popular, I decided to go ahead with another edition. Yes, these cards contain chicks and bunnies. But that doesn’t mean you’d want to send them to your loved one. For if you’re looking for an Easter greeting card to send to your loved one, try Hallmark because this isn’t the place for you. In fact, you wouldn’t send cards like these to anybody, other than to someone you hate. These cards aren’t warm and fuzzy with sentimental stuff on them. Rather they’re ones that make you scratch your head thinking why the hell did they think it was a good idea? Some of them might be inappropriate, offensive, creepy, or just plain weird. So for your viewing pleasure, I give you another treasure trove of vintage Easter greeting cards.

  1. “Rosalie, will you do me the honor of becoming Mrs. Bunnykins?”
Yes, the forbidden love affair between Rosalie and her mutant bunnyman was one of utter devotion, passion, and garden vegetables. Luckily he was a snappy dresser.

2. Ever tried to get around on an egg bike?

I don't think an egg bike is a good idea. For one, eggs aren't circular. Second, they're easy to break.

3. There’s nothing on Easter like smoking a pipe that blows out colored egg bubbles.

Now this seems like some card designer had spent too much time on the brown acid. Also, doesn't help that these are kids and one of the eggs has a bow.

4. “Mind if I pop in at your birdhouse?”

Sure this is a French Easter card. However, it seems like the guy in this is kind of a creep of the future sex offender sort.

5. For Easter, this little angel is responsible for taking care of the flower children.

Okay, this gives a whole new meaning to the word "flower children," which seems were created by someone who's had too many psychoactive drugs at the time. And let's just say, these make hippies look normal.

6. “Row faster, I think they’re still on to us.”

Seems like these 2 rabbits have stolen some colored eggs from the chicken coop. No wonder the hens are after them.

7. “How would you like your egg, Peter Cottontail?”

I'm sure the artist's intention was of bunnies dying eggs. But looking at this, I can't tell whether they're dying eggs or cooking them.

8. Nothing captures the spirit of Easter than a couple rabbits harassing young children.

What the hell did the bunnies just do to make the kiddies cry? Man, they must be very mean to pick on little kids.

9. Happy Easter from the kids in the eggshell car.

I don't think that kid's even legal to drive. Then again, it's not like they had a driving age at the time.

10. It’s not Easter until you get a visit from the egg people.

And I thought the little Santa kids were creepy. These are incredibly terrifying.

11. There’s nothing on Easter like seeing 2 chicks drinking a beer.

Man, these chicks sure drink a stein of beer. Wonder what goes on with drunk chicks. I mean baby chickens, not girls gone wild.

14. Now, little bunnies, sit down and behave yourself for your instructor Mr. Hooter.

Okay, I think the school made a very big mistake hiring the guy. I mean he's a certified predator. And I don't mean a sexual predator either. I mean he's an owl which is a bird of prey. And is known to eat rabbits.

15. On Easter, it’s not unheard of for a witch lady to emerge with a clutch of colored eggs surrounded by dancing bunnies.

"Yes, dance, dance, my pretties. Soon, the midnight hour will be upon us. And I will make you clean my house."

“Yes, dance, dance, my pretties. Soon, the midnight hour will be upon us. And I will make you clean my house.”

16. When a chick can’t hatch on its own, it’s up to babies with hammers to break the eggs and help them.

For one, babies shouldn't have hammers for obvious reasons. Second, what if banging on the eggs actually kills the chicks? Seems more like the reality to me.

17. Of course, Easter wouldn’t be without an angel bestowing good wishes.

I guess this is the kids guardian angel. And I think she has her work cut out for her. I'm sure nothing good can come out of that one harassing the Easter Bunny.

18. Aww, little kitty cat wants to play with the chickies.

Wait a minute, this cat wants to play with these chicks before it kills them. Not a settling thought but a biological fact.

19. Seems like there’s a croquet tournament among the woodland creatures on Easter.

And it seems like Mr. Owl is eyeing the squirrel lady as she takes a swing. He's thinking about taking her into an isolated location and devouring her.

21. There’s nothing on Easter than a parade of naked babies with flowers.

22. “You’re always welcome into my eggshell home.”

I'm sure this woman works as some part time prostitute or something. Also, why is the winged cherub in an egg cart being pulled by a rooster?

23. Nothing makes Easter than a baby standing on an egg carriage pulled by sheep.

From Cheryl Pierson: "Okay, my mother instincts are yelling, screaming, "GET OFF THAT EGG!" (I have to confess, this reminds me of something my son would have tried.) Notice the body of water that they're racing toward? This can only end badly."

24. “The best thing about kidnapping chicks is that they come with their own shell.”

I'm sure that doesn't help that he doesn't have his hands on the goat he's riding. That can't be good.

I’m sure that doesn’t help that he doesn’t have his hands on the goat he’s riding. That can’t be good.

25. Of course, chicks can be tamed by a fairy with a flute.

Wonder if this fairy Pied Piper of Hamelin is leading these chickies to certain doom. If so, then perhaps these fairies should've been paid.

27. “So how much for the pink egg there?”

Seems like this grocer chick hates his job selling these colored eggs. Shopper chicks think he's a shyster and aren't so fond of him either.

28. Since spring is here, then it’s perfectly all right to egg Jack Frost on Easter.

Okay, rabbits, can you cut it out throwing Easter eggs at Jack Frost? Why do you pick on him out of all people?

Okay, rabbits, can you cut it out throwing Easter eggs at Jack Frost? Yes, he brings winter, but that doesn’t mean you should harass him.

29. Easter greetings from the winged cherub with a large egg on his back.

I don't know about you but I think this endeavor is setting this kid up for a lifetime of back problems. Ever heard of rheumatoid arthritis?

30. Of course, even bears love the taste eggs on Easter.

Of course, anyone who knows about bears will be quick to point out that the chicken doesn't have long to live. Seriously, what do you expect would happen in this situation?

32. For bunnies nothing makes a happy Easter than with a good old fashioned bloodbath.

Okay, why the hell did anyone think traumatizing children on Easter was a good idea? For God's sake these bunnies are injured and one is lying bleeding in a wheelbarrow, possibly dead. This is the most fucked up Easter card I've ever seen in my life.

33. Since spring is baseball season, I can’t see why a baseball Easter card wouldn’t hurt.

So the bunnies are playing baseball with Easter eggs. And the stands are filled with chicks who aren't rioting. Now that's just crazy if you ask me.

34. Oh, no, the gnomes are stealing eggs again.

I'm sure if they get caught, then it'll be the end for them. Still, these guys are pretty creepy.

35. May Easter joy attend you.

Apparently, some little bunny isn't happy with his new adopted siblings getting all the attention. Definitely not basking in any Easter joy here.

36. Of course, you can’t imagine Easter greetings without a sweet little girl and her lamb.

I don't know about you but there's really wrong with this girl. It's like she's possessed by some demon, has no soul, or is dead inside. Quick, call an exorcist!

38. It’s said that an eggshell boat can withstand practically anything.

Okay, this makes Life of Pi seem like a way less desperate situation. Seriously, does that kid have any supplies or know what the hell he's doing?

39. Nothing makes a rabbit more at home than a nice cooked meal after a day out from hunting.

Wait a minute, rabbits are vegetarians and don’t hunt. So why would the rabbit have a gun? Also, why is his chick wife serving him eggs?

40. Seems like these chickies are going to battle.

To be fair, this is a WWI card. Still, seeing a bunch of chickies in doughboy gear is kind of disturbing. Wonder if it became the subject of All Quiet on the Poultry Front.

41. Have an egg cart? Nothing pulls it faster than bunnies.

Okay, I'm sure anything pulled by rabbits at that size and weight wouldn't go very far according to the laws of physics. That, or the rabbits would tire out sooner. Poor things.

42. On Easter, a couple of gnomes always enjoy a good game of egg tossing.

It's a wonder why these eggs don't seem to break. Because some are bound to. Also, I don't understand why they use gnomes in Easter cards either.

45. On Easter, you haven’t heard of bunny riding have you?

And it seems like these two are about to clash because someone wants an Easter basket. Also, this is just plain freaky.

46. Oh, great, someone just got knocked off and had their Easter eggs stolen.

Yes, these are the same kids from the last card. And yes, it seems like the kid in red is a douche and is going to get away with stealing from the kid who's now crying. What a jerk.

49. Sure it’s just getting out of its shell but you can’t start them too early.

Someone's getting a bit presumptuous here since the chick is just being freaking born right now. Maybe the rabbit should find another chick to ride on instead.

The Wonderful World of Peep Shows (No, Not that Kind) (Third Edition)

For Easter in 2014, I did my first Easter post which was on peep dioramas. It was the only Easter post I did that year because I worked on a series called History of the World According to the Movies in March which was a project that took me until just before the 4th of July. Let’s just say it was a longer project than I thought since movies tend to cover a lot of about history but I stopped with the 1990s. Still, it proved to be very popular and I enjoyed doing one so much that decided to do another peep diorama post the next year along with the other Easter posts I did. Again, doing Easter was such a success along with the peep dioramas that I couldn’t think of doing the holiday without a post on these. After all, it would be like doing posts on Valentine’s Day without doing something on vintage valentines. And I know it’s because people like vintage valentines so much that my stats shoot up to over 1,000 views on February 14th. Still, while of you remember marshmallow peeps as inedible sugar coated marshmallow candies which are utterly disgusting to eat, some people use them in the world of art. So much so that there are contests pertaining to peep dioramas around Easter each year. The most famous being the Washington Post. Yes, the paper that helped expose Watergate in the 1970s, yet I haven’t seen a peep diorama on that. Else, I’d show it if I found one. Nevertheless, without further adieu, I give you more peep dioramas to look at for your Easter viewing pleasure.

  1. Little Peeps Farmer’s Market is open for business.
Sure nothing's edible here. But I think it's nice that other peeps are buying fresh produce from their local farms.

3. Spiderpeep, Spiderpeep, does whatever a spider can…

Kind of funny that he's at Time Square. as you can see from the Broadway signs. Also, kind of funny that they made a Spiderman musical on Broadway.

Spring Into These Easter Craft Projects

Easter-Decorations-1

While Easter isn’t as widely celebrated as Christmas in regards to the commercialization, it’s still a big holiday, especially in places where there are a lot of Christians. And while Easter is widely seen as a religious holiday to most Christians around the world since it denotes the resurrection of Christ, there are plenty of people who celebrate the holiday who aren’t religious at all. Not only that, but there are Christian groups who don’t observe the holiday either. For instance, the Puritans didn’t celebrate Easter and nor do the Quakers. Then there are Orthodox Christians and other Eastern sects who celebrate Easter at a later date since they go by a different liturgical calendar. While my family tends to celebrate Easter as a low key affair, there are plenty of people who go all out, not just including parents with kids. And retailers are happy to indulge, which you’d notice every time you go to a store. Not to mention, schoolchildren in the US usually have projects pertaining to Easter as well. Still, while there is a big market for Easter decorations, there are plenty of people who’d rather make their own. As I’ve seen on Pinterest in researching for this post, I have become well aware of it. But in blog posts, I can only show so much. Yes, there will be some religious content as well as bunnies, chicks, and other adorable stuff. So for your reading pleasure, I give you a treasure trove of Eater crafts to adore.

  1. Pardon me, but has anyone heard of an egg shelf?
It's a shelf that's shaped like an egg. And it's all decked out for the spring for all your desires.

As Saint Patrick's Day uses shamrocks and Valentine's Day uses hearts, so shall Easter use bunnies. Still, I really like the bow on this.

3. As we all know, Easter is the time when birds hatch the next generation.

The birds may be fake as far as I can tell. But I'm not sure about the spring grass in the pails. Or is it moss?

16. For those aiming for simplicity, perhaps hang some carrots instead.

Of course, you wouldn't be able to do these with real carrots. Because before long they'd either be rotted or eaten by critters. And you don't have to take my word for it.

17. An Easter bouquet is never complete without jellybeans in the vase.

21. Nothing can get more festive this Easter than this tree of ribbons.

It's mostly purple deco mesh but with crazy polka dot ribbons. Not sure if it's in my taste since it reminds me of something you'd see in Wonka's factory.

23. If you want a rustic mantle for Easter, this moss picture frame will suit you quite nicely.

Well, it has a picture of a rabbit as well as a bird's nest in the corner. Also, I don't think the moss is real. Well, it better not be real or that might be a problem.

24. Of course, you can’t go wrong with an Easter birdhouse.

However, I certainly don't approve of using peanut M&M's on such a project. That's a waste of great chocolate and peanut candy. Best use jellybeans instead.

25. If you prefer a more nature looking wreath for Easter, look no further.

This one seems to have a more natural look in some ways. Except that the eggs are different sizes and colors. Most birds don't lay eggs like that.

26. For those who want to be reminded of Jesus’s death and resurrection, this palm crown of thorns is just the thing.

27. You can’t have a better Easter centerpiece on your table than a box of spring flowers.

45. Remember the meaning of Easter with this Calvary flower box.

As you know, Jesus was crucified on the cross yet would rise within 3 days, according to the Gospels. Still, I like how the flowers overtake them as life overtakes death.

46. Of course, you can’t celebrate Jesus’s triumph over death without a crown of thorns.

If you think a migraine is torture, wearing this makes it seem like nothing. Because the thorns dig into your head and cause bleeding. Hey, Easter isn't all about bunnies, chicks, and colored eggs.

Hop Down the Bunny Trail for These Easter Treats (Second Edition)

18

Shortly after Saint Patrick’s day comes Easter, which consists of bunnies, flowers, butterflies, bright pastel colors, lambs, chicks, ducks, and colored eggs. I know I’m writing this in late February, which is a little early. But this year Easter falls in March and soon it will be upon us before we know it. So I want to get my Easter stuff in as early as I can. Nevertheless, last year I published a bunch of Easter posts and they were a huge success. So I decided to do Easter again this year. Still, it’s more of a religious holiday to celebrate the miraculous resurrection of Christ which commends the triumph of life over death as well as the coming of spring and the birth of new life. Yet, to me, it’s more of a holiday for children than adults. After all, I tended to enjoy the holiday more when I was a kid than as an adult, which basically consists of going to my grandparents’ house and socializing with relatives. Oh, and watching your younger cousins find eggs. However, that it’s named after a pagan goddess, Easter isn’t a pagan holiday that’s also known as Pasch as in paschal season which is linked to the Jewish feast of Passover that Christians d0n’t even celebrate. But we call it Easter because it sounds much better than “Pasch” which sounds like something a hipster would name their dog. But in a lot of countries in Europe and Latin America it’s called Pascha. Of course, as with most holidays, it’s celebrated with food as you may see. So for your reading pleasure, I give you another treasure trove of Easter treats.

  1. Start your Easter morning with some pineapple bunny and fruit salad.
3f6a00d7e80c97771a50abd35f92a92a

3. If you aren’t up to making a bunny cake, how about a cake of bunny peeps in the carrot patch?

06d9e278f577ae35962691660a3b44ad

Yes, I know the peep bunnies aren’t edible. But still, it seems pretty easy to make as well as adorable.

4. This year forget chocolate bunnies and try some chocolate sheep.

10. For the kids, I’m sure an edible Eater basket would do just fine.

85e255627a9d08bfee79b877ef63f946

56bed610c43b50bf84a34e1004a38a68

I'm not sure if these cupcakes are appropriate for celebrating Easter, for obvious reasons. But they seem rather simple to make if you get my drift.

Yes, it's a bird's nest cake. But it looks nothing like the one I put on last year's post. And it seems almost real.

To Catch a Leprechaun

672bc7d017cc311d61543bc90418f056

While I was looking for Saint Patrick’s Day craft projects, I came across a specific craft project called a leprechaun trap. While I’m familiar with the idea about catching a leprechaun so he’d lead you to his pot of gold at the end of the rainbow (or 3 wishes in exchange for its freedom), I’ve never seen such contraptions in my life. Still, contrary to popular belief, leprechauns were only prominent in later Irish folklore for they barely appeared in mythology. However, as far as I know, many of these traps are made by children and families according to Pinterest and other sites. And some of these can get rather elaborate and creative. Yet, no matter how ingenious such trap ideas are, they tend to have one critical flaw: that each one is designed without accounting the notion that leprechauns have magical apparition powers that make them very tricky and hard to catch in the first place. In other words, these guys can So while these traps could manage to capture a leprechaun, it probably won’t stay in the trap for long. However, as long as making one is fun and brings out creativity in the classroom or anywhere else, who cares? They have contests for these things. After all, in the world of Harry Potter, catching a leprechaun for a pot of gold is a worthless endeavor anyway. Because leprechaun gold is known to disappear after a period of time. So for your viewing pleasure, I present to you the multitude of ways people try to catch a leprechaun.

  1. There’s nothing more irresistible to a leprechaun than a large pot of free gold.
0e9c7884532dfd4bafee17b234ec4ddb

Not sure if it’s going to work. Because to a leprechaun, free gold seems a little bit too good to be true.

2. Toadstools are just the things that make a leprechaun feel at home.

1c78ea8869f1b25c2b56ea21dd263950

For some reason, this kind of reminds me of something you’d see in Super Mario Bros. Maybe it’s because the toadstools look so flat.

3. Those who construct mazes for lab rats can always devise a way to capture a leprechaun.

1fa2bf7f006c2802ef1cd105091d1752

Man, someone must’ve had a lot of time on their hands to construct a trap maze like this one. Still, even if it doesn’t work, it’s very well done.

4. Of course, you can always go with the diorama option.

02cb4d771cbfc44cd98ea5f4aff333aa

Whoever made this trap is also using reverse psychology as well. Yeah, they totally don’t want the leprechaun in there (not really).

5. If you can, make sure the trap resembles a leprechaun’s natural habitat as closely as possible.

4bb5512f236c8d63ac5bea00ec763a83

I guess this is a miniature garden option. Like the little trunk cage with the wooden steps.

6. When in doubt, you can always use a hat trap.

5a9e60709140bed103669ef5786d2925

This is a common type of leprechaun trap. The leprechaun is supposed to climb up the ladder and fall into the hat.

7. When it comes to trapping leprechauns, you can always try to make them feel at home.

5c346956c8ca9c930cfda19579f23d9b

Well, this one seems rather unassuming since it’s seems more like a Saint Patrick’s Day decorated house. Then again, I can be wrong.

8. What leprechaun can’t resist a visit to the Gold Coin Inn?

5d6a23a8a6deec32f4b64352affe2019

Now this seems like a cozy bed and breakfast just for leprechauns to lodge at. Of course, appearances can be deceiving.

9. Sometimes to get a pot of gold, you’d have to leave out a pot of gold.

7a0a98bc46dd772d8850a241e1df6658

This is a gold coin trick trap in which the leprechaun sets off a trap by taking advantage of the free gold. This one also depends on reverse psychology, too.

10. To make a leprechaun trap more enticing, it helps that you add rainbows, clouds, and flowers.

7a0378aa7f9c0c49cca82e7775ef60b0

Because sometimes free gold isn’t enough to lure a leprechaun in. Still, this one kind of gives you a feel of a flower garden.

11. When it comes to luring leprechauns, sometimes a rainbow box and goodies are all you need.

8e9f931e3a8c87573a792f2b13a4ef78

This one contains a pretzel rainbow treat and some white Oreos inside. The box is made from popsicle sticks.

12. Got an old birdhouse? Make a leprechaun trap out of it.

8f2f7e19b3619c8d08d9e8261d81852e

Not sure how this works. But I do like how this is decorated and painted. So cute.

13. Leprechauns, check into the Leprechaun Inn and stay awhile.

9ee832f56412192039d97de4d3fb216a

It’s said that while many tend to check in, they don’t check out. I wonder why.

14. For a place to stay, all the leprechaun needs to do is follow the rainbow road.

40af42c20f47a1325addadb532c01ffa

This looks like the kind of house a leprechaun is sure to love. Still, little does an unsuspecting leprechaun know what’s in there.

15. Sometimes leprechauns can’t resist the rainbow path to riches or ruin.

48f82cb347c8fa8e2af42b58bf409069

This one just has the leprechaun walk right in under the box. Not sure if one will manage to run into the stick.

16. When rainbows won’t do, you can always go with a shamrock shape.

56ade85a0ac1094d23178e6c3c89aa13

In this one, the leprechaun lust walks to get the gold under the hat before upsetting the stick. And it seems like this boy is proud of his creation.

17. Sometimes the pot of gold has to be seen as clear as day.

3f0b956f64d388a6c992d9047a1682ff

Because sometimes you have to get the leprechaun to want to climb the ladder. So transparent containers are one way to do it.

18. When it comes to leprechaun traps, some can go all out.

5f292c771fa052b0f912513b7af52c75

This one has 2 castle towers, a road of stones, a background filled with flowers, and more. Not sure what the triggering mechanism in this is though.

19. A wired cage provides a well secure holding place.

3eb14cc97b41e66e3a9b78f4c22b05ab

I guess the leprechaun has to climb the rainbow ladder before falling in from the top door. Still, I like the stop signs on this one.

20. Occasionally, a leprechaun might be tempted to enter a large, green box.

56b5fe7d292bf72fca98d2cacfc645bc

This seems like something a leprechaun would love. Yet, I really like the rainbow bow the best.

21. A bug cage is just as capable of trapping leprechauns if you customize it properly.

95b55a6f0f636d8851c824e77dd45b63

This one has a rainbow on the side and offers free gold in. However, little do leprechauns know, kids use these to trap bugs, too.

22. Some may put gold in a box while other use baskets.

135d50b4bf7bcd59f3cb765960613d82

Leprechaun just has to climb up the twig ladder to get in the wicker basket. Still, at least those inedible candy hearts are put to good use.

23. Any leprechaun should be able to make themselves at home in Leprechaun Lane.

150a5b4056fd4cb6653385255ca2f7a1

And it’s all covered in shamrocks and yellow butterflies for a leprechaun’s delight. Not to mention, the gold coin inside.

24. When making a leprechaun trap, sometimes towel rolls and boxes come in handy.

82fec1d1165fa48b3a2aa1ac218dbc29

This one uses a shoe box, some cardboard slabs, and a paper towel holder. Yes, I know cardboard is flimsy as a building material, but this was made by a child for God’s sake.

25. Leprechauns are happy to stop by the End of the Rainbow Motel.

769bfb8d35374af690aba41aff5830bf

Once again, the bug cage is employed. But it sure looks like a very nice place to stay. Don’t mind the trap door as you pass through it.

26. If you can only use a small space, use a can.

29f25b0ee3dbabd52313edb07d66adc4

Well, as long as you have a big enough can. Still, this one is decorated with a felt rainbow, a felt shamrock, and a cloud in the back.

27. Seems like another Gold Coin Inn is open for business.

985abb8e455d27cf920fe9d4885f9c7f

Then again, this one has more tasteful decor as the other one. But still contains gold coins so leprechauns won’t care.er Gold Coin Inn is open for business.

28. A leprechaun trying to get gold coins in this contraption might not want to look up.

942bea794d871e86ece97d9b7e8a6803

Yeah, once that leprechaun gets a hold of the gold, the mechanism will trigger and the can will drop. Works like a lucky charm.

29. When in doubt, sometimes it helps to use hospitality.

1010c47afc4d7379ddada6cc44053e54

Hmm…”Welcome to Rainbow Valley.” Wonder where that is. Sounds very suspicious.

30. Never underestimate the power of Lego engineering technology.

2478db9c0beb911a08d808813e4554fb

Oh, Lego, is there nothing you can’t do? I’m sure the leprechaun about to be captured hasn’t seen nothing yet.

31. C’mon, leprechauns, go in for the gold.

3548c1fe9fc41c6f989fea265db65d37

Just don’t mind the door closing as you fall in. Also, don’t bet on getting out right away either.

32. Sometimes a leprechaun trap can be made from the simplest materials.

6606a6e7a5ae6504ba454d535440bc38

And here is a description to show you. Let’s hope that Batman doesn’t mind lending his ladder for awhile, okay?

33. To lure a leprechaun, sometimes offering a big cash prize helps tremendously.

066282f3b2b4e5980aeb222030ede7c2

Yes, get them hooked on the pennies if you can. They won’t know that they’re worthless pieces of US currency.

34. Just remove the stick and the cloud collapses over them.

80269bb3410f80119f702b7d8bdbaf98

Wonder how they got this one to stand up. But I’m sure the leprechaun would find the plastic coins irresistible.

35.Of course, making a leprechaun trap isn’t always child’s play.

379326

This one is made from a series of Rube Goldberg devices. But nevertheless, it had to be made with some degree of adult supervision.

36. Sometimes it helps if you put the pot of gold up a notch.

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Because when the leprechaun tries to reach the gold, the cage will fall on it. Still, love the shamrock decorations on this one.

37. The Gold Inn is open and ready for business.

859824f94b6880c88047ac4021591150

Of course, a leprechaun can check in as long as it likes. But it can never leave. Still, love the bling on this.

38. For leprechaun traps, you can do a lot with a shoe box.

4555808d3f209f6f711b63a3c4d2fd25

If IKEA designed a leprechaun trap, who’s to bet that it would look like this? Yet, there would be some assembly required.

39. Get your pot of gold and don’t mind the cloud above.

6262971e23fdb7bffc1f675ca6150ded

Because once the leprechaun gets the gold, the cloud would fall. But at least it’s fluffy.

40. Sometimes a large space will do the trick.

155713500add2eac9ab389cc7d093a6c

This one seems to be made on a planter and has an umbrella like cage. But at least it’s green.

41. That’s right, leprechauns, step right up and follow the glittery gold path.

Of course, the leprechaun will fall through and won't be able to get out for awhile. But you have to account for these things.

Of course, the leprechaun will fall through and won’t be able to get out for awhile. But you have to account for these things.

42. Who knew that Luck Charm marshmallows can be good for garden paths?

a42d76340a0cdb136b9941d8b43e281e

Leftover Mardis Gras beads also help, too. Particularly the green ones. But you have to love this set up.

43. Sometimes it helps to make a big  impression.

a41552e371c13ae67097babe313668d1

Yes, leprechauns, enter this humble abode. They have free gold. Don’t miss this offer.

44. Sometimes a small trap compartment is all you need.

641874d1ebc04b15ffeb48787147c1c7

Yes, it might not look like much. But they sure put a lot into advertising. Like how some parts of this trap shine.

45. Keep in mind that some leprechauns prefer more naturalistic surroundings.

aff9cd300ae2acb26a80f198ddd534dd

Seems like this leprechaun trap was made from a shoebox and some stuff you might find in the woods. Not sure if they used gold as bait.

46. There are many leprechauns out there who can’t resist a gold mine.

b9d2dbc9526f2f79bae9de7fa500ca9b

Who knew you can make stuff like this with only cardboard and popsicle sticks. This is amazing. if you think about it.

47. When it comes to trapping leprechauns, sometimes a small trash bin can be very effective.

c4b31a8c97034bd9b9bdb78c61d2be0a

Not sure if chartreuse is a great color for this. But I do like the pipe cleaner rainbow and the cotton ball clouds on this.

48. I bring you the cake trap.

c8eeef57276533482d702810643ff6c3

I actually showed this cake before in last year’s Saint Patrick’s treat post. It was a just a cross section. But I didn’t know is was a leprechaun trap at the time.

49. When gold isn’t available, it doesn’t hurt to use Barbie as bait.

c821c44319f172337748316b961bc891

Apparently, some kid understands how sex sells in this line. Yet, does Barbie set a good example for young girls in this situation?

50. If you can, it helps to go big and all out.

cd3daa5b120cba0b22b6e9f93e2c1e74

Seems like this boy spared no expense constructing this leprechaun trap. Still, it won’t do well for leprechauns who are afraid of heights.

51. This hat trap puts the pot of gold below the hat.

c5074feb3aee3c9c759b843d812cf3d9

Kind of reminds me of something I’d see on some Saint Patrick’s Day miniature golf course. Yet, by design the sticks aren’t very sturdy.

52. Sometimes the use of a backdrop can really come in handy.

ce366d67daea1b3f0b4bfbda66d68c21

Of course, if I were that leprechaun, I’d proceed with caution with that pot of gold. I guess one might be stuck there for awhile.

53. This leprechaun trap seems to give me spots, white ones, too.

d1d83e5651e8eabf5afcce59c41ca7d0

Yes, leprechaun, just follow the polka dot road to the polka dot box. There will be a pot of gold there but you won’t get out for some time.

54. Sometimes a plant trap is enough to seal the deal.

d2c3d233c1ca0f1b32b1cb878ace69a7

I’m sure the foliage in this is fake. But I’m sure any nature loving leprechaun would be duped by this, especially if baited with gold coins.

55. What leprechaun can ever resist a sparkly green house?

d3fcc28fb1ee0141a4a556ec43f893f2

Of course, this house will be full of surprises. Some of them pleasant, some not. Still, love the shamrocks.

56. What leprechaun can ever resist a large gift wrapped in green?

dde837c9f26e336ec9d2c1236e2caae9

Yes, I’m sure whoever made this never wanted anyone to open this box. Well, anyone who isn’t a leprechaun anyway.

57. Guess this leprechaun trap is a literal gilded cage.

df4fb4aa6be22d274c5b781328fe30c5

A leprechaun may know seeing this. But since leprechauns are so drawn in by gold, they may not even care.

58. Sometimes putting a rainbow on top of the trap is a great way to advertise.

eb47cd8a58b4b5a8fdac66c98feccbfe

Because it’s said that there’s a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Not sure how many leprechauns fall for that trick.

59. For some extra greedy leprechauns, you might need a bigger pot of gold.

eb573ea8e0bda04c5192ce2a57df2d4d

Man, that looks like a very big pot of gold for a trap like this. Still, love the rainbow and clouds though.

60. Leprechaun house or trap, you decide.

ec9a5ef3bb84ccdb1d70f3467e44454d

Either way, it’s supposed to be made from recycled materials. Still, I like the flowers on this one as well as the fence.

61. A small hut and fake turf shall do it.

ef12d54e8df2dcee95d03afac0c554e2

This one has grass made out of tissue paper. And the hut is of some green construction paper. Of course, it was made by a child.

62. When in doubt, go with a house with all the green and gold you can muster.

f8ba7447a52cdc3e55e6b8dc7713d699

This one is a green house with a gold roof. And it has all the Saint Patrick’s Day decor any leprechaun desires.

63. You can make a suitable shack with popsicle sticks.

f44a0dba4eb2a598ff312bf75496918d

Yes, this might not look like much with the sticks and shamrocks. But I’m sure gold is bound to be found inside.

64. Aside from Legos, Lincoln logs are also a suitable building material.

f56e7f3f4a91badfe4a33bce8701a96b

Not sure if this is one trap or two. But both somehow take Lincoln log construction to a whole new level.

65. When in doubt, go with a bigger cage.

f966acc914a8c9cde4796ff19be85586

This one is a wooden cage with shamrocks. And it even has a rainbow in back to signal that there’s gold inside.

66. Sometimes printable decorations make everything look better.

fa15a424c56f714abd302345c65cb5ae

Well, this one seems to be designed by Hallmark. Nevertheless, it’s quite cute.

67. Got net? Perhaps trap some leprechauns with it.

ff876c6fdde383791f01138114632812

I’m sure the leprechaun is in for a surprise once it tries to get its hands on those gold coins. Sometimes net traps can be tricky.

68. Don’t have a box to trap a leprechaun? No problem.

leprec6

I guess the net is a trap mechanism. Still, you have to like how this person made a trap like this without using a box. Like the decorations.

69. A cage can be a rather homey place with the right decorations.

LeprechaunTrap-@beautyandbedlam1

Not sure how big this one is. But I think it’s rather well done if you ask me.

70. Sometimes it helps if you attach the gold to the box.

lt6

I’m sure that will lure those little leprechauns in like a charm. Still, this is a rather clever idea.

71. It’s always said, leprechauns are real suckers for gold as seen here.

b4e83494f0a1f5a26ebd38ae21836f3e

This one has “Gold” in big golden letters. Not to mention the golden ribbons at the edge of the box.

72. A trap of gold, green, and rainbows, is one a a leprechaun can’t seem to resist.

Prize-Winning-Leprechaun-Trap

This one has rainbow paths made from beads, coins, and green stuff to any leprechauns delight. Of course, it’ll only enjoy it for a limited time.

73. As leprechauns know, a rainbow can always help advertise for free gold.

dcc199361a2dce7991eb6de7886701aa

But as we all know, sometimes offers of riches are too good to be true. This is especially for leprechauns in this case.

74. I’m sure a leprechaun trap like this has the Midas touch.

BenLepTrap

This one seems to be decorated with shamrocks and shiny paper. And it has a rainbow on top for good measure.

75. Leprechauns, enjoy your stay at the Happy Patrick Hotel.

s6

The place where leprechauns can stay as long as they like. But keep in mind, their stay might be longer than expected.

76. If a hotel doesn’t work, try a bank.

234658c5798872e9d03c92fc8d970958

Of course, this is just a box that just says “Gold Bank.” But I’m sure leprechauns won’t know the difference.

77. When it comes to leprechaun traps, sometimes decorations serve to entice them.

125710c1b85bbbf27253a36a6376cc99

This one has a table, rainbow, cage, and others. And I’m sure the cage is bound to contain some gold.

78. C’mon, leprechauns, have a drink at Sham Rogue’s Pub.

0219151206b

Guess someone has a few ideas about Irish stereotypes. Still, I guess leprechauns love to hang out at their pubs, too.

79. To make the gold stand out as bait, sometimes a green backdrop is required.

dc93b991c3dc4bd88bd87e13d408ff9e

This one seems to go for the green in a big way. Still, like how they used a strawberry basket as a cage.

80. For leprechauns, all that glitters for them is gold.

b6ced211972c48b5ce575e9663c582fd

Now this one seems rather enticing to a leprechaun. Still, not sure if any of them would be familiar with palm trees.

Top of the Morning with These Lucky Saint Patrick’s Day Craft Projects

6b94e633761ace6766b559cb3a4b091b

While I’m not the kind of person who goes all out for Saint Patrick’s Day, there are plenty of people who do. And yes, there are people who do put up Saint Patrick’s Day decorations like the person above. Nevertheless, when Saint Patrick’s Day rolls around, you can bet that plenty of grade school children will be doing some type of craft project on the holiday. Decorating motifs usually consist of shamrocks, leprechauns, pots of gold, a Celtic cross, booze, green stuff, rainbows, and other things. And while there are Saint Patrick’s Day decorations available in stores, there are some people tend to make on their own, which I’ve seen on Pinterest. However, sometimes it was hard for me to find some of the DIY decor since a lot of Saint Patrick’s Day craft projects are aimed for children. This doesn’t surprise me. Yet, it kind of frustrates me because the craft projects I usually show are aimed for adults and consist of stuff one can make but use forever. So for your reading pleasure, I bring you a treasure trove of craft projects for Saint Patty’s Day.

  1. Grace your front door with this shamrock wreath of green.
0c57ca95a7ce7c9c39b229720f5a004f

Seems like you take a regular wreath and put some fake foliage and shamrocks on it. And you’re good to go.

2. These 4 leaf clover necklaces are bound to give you good luck.

0c8448f900e8745e85d8a53da672abc8

These two have some newsprint and a 4 leaf clover encased in a glass pendant. Appear to come in gold and bronze.

3. With this wreath, you can have both shamrocks and rainbows.

0dcea825a20912ed230ec165070df227

This one appears to be made from burlap and felt. And the rainbow appears in a banner.

4. Got some empty green bottles? Make some shamrock candle holders out of them.

0fe14848c4dc5258726f9c005bd52f47

Not sure whether these came from a craft store or beer case. Either way, they’ll be in the Saint Patrick’s Day spirit with shamrocks on them.

5. Spare flower pots always make great leprechaun hats.

0ff5a1e6286b4707100a1f00e7672945

Seems like this would be a great project for kids. But these nevertheless look quite cute if you ask me.

6. If you don’t want to get pinched on March 17, this headband is for you.

1f6fae1dcb82e05faeceecc66c862b99

This one seems rather simple to make. Just put some green shamrocks on it and craft stones and you’re good to go.

7. Curl up on the couch this Saint Patrick’s Day with this shamrock pillow.

1f40b2f9e13ed962129d972a65a3fcc0

Now your furniture won’t get pinched this Saint Patrick’s Day. Even if it’s a bright orange couch in your living room.

8. Cover your wreath with green and shamrock ribbons.

2b3185c9c154962646dbc6639460db8d

This is a yearn ribbon wreath of green. It has gold shamrocks at front. Still, it’s pretty.

9. If you aren’t a wreath person, you can always go with flowers.

1bde89b8e74ba56edab0a61d4f2c1f3e

Well, fake flowers that you might find in a cemetery anyway. Because most of the spring flowers aren’t out yet at least in my neck of the woods.

9. Store your Saint Patty’s Day decorations in this one of a kind crate.

2edcd3b505088c944a811d7f0ccdefff

Not sure if I could do that design. But as long as the crate was prebuilt at the store, I think I could paint it green.

10. A leprechaun hat bouquet always makes a great Saint Patrick’s Day centerpiece.

2f136adbbe334fb5720b052ad34c296d

Yes the flowers are fake. And I’m sure that’s a cut out flower pot. But if you’re someone who’s a repressed art major, this a great project for you.

11.For extra luck, grace your door this Saint Patrick’s Day with this rainbow wreath.

4ee794e19d5b205473cb037e15f015b1

This one is covered as a rainbow in ribbons. And covered in shamrock garlands. All in all, I think this is beautiful.

12. Nothing goes better in your home this Saint Patrick’s Day than this shamrock tree.

4ef9cce1b8ef961b5d17c6882fca0a7d

And the best part is, you don’t have to water it. Also. the shamrocks on this are so shiny.

14. Of course, you can always go with the conifer option.

5d4473116f7ed5503a01c726ec3954e7

Yes, this is another shamrock tree. However, this one has shamrocks all over it in a different variation.

15. If you want more leaves on your Saint Patrick’s Day wreath, this is the one for you.

6c9cee56a4fe311630571464992a4224

Sure the foliage may be fake and seem it’s straight from a cemetery. Yet, I do love the wooden shamrock on this one.

16. For a simpler Saint Patrick’s Day wreath, one won’t need to look further than this.

6f9e7ee0c43e46ff4850cd65695cc30a

This one is just a plain white wreath with some ribbon and shamrock decorations on them. Looks pretty doable compared to some of the other ones.

17. A shamrock hair clip like this is bound to have the luck of the Irish.

7b2f045c25f440617bf32331b75d7c76

This shamrock clip is made from different shades of green ribbon and a fake pearl. Nevertheless, it’s very pretty.

18. A shamrock wreath like this will always bring you luck at your front door.

8cff192e8045208b569f9ecca6c1a55d

This one is a 4 leaf clover wreath which is said to be made from cloth and coat hangers. Not sure what else.

19. Sometimes a cushion and ribbon wreath is all you need.

9f13cc1e218b759fed1c656987970d78

Well, not sure if these were scraps or cut out that way. But at any rate, it sure looks soft and cozy even if it’s not.

20. A green wreath of tulle like this is bound to give you luck.

34af040fde5ed8d08527525912c1e594

This one even has Luck spelled on here. And in a banner of shamrocks, too. Not sure if it would give you the luck of the Irish.

21. When in doubt a green wreath of spots will always suit your fancy.

43a7884eac884765273ba8349b3d7d70

You might have noticed that I have a lot of wreaths on this post for Saint Patrick’s Day. That may be so, but so does Pinterest.

22. Nothing says Saint Patrick’s Day than wearing a green bow and a rainbow necklace.

46f1cf49ca60446c3ea651088badca75

Yes , these things are meant for little girls. But it’s in the spirit of Saint Patrick’s Day so it goes on. Besides, they’re cute.

23. They say that a bag of gold at your front door is bound to give you good fortune.

48c2c5355c3eb4800f6199295c8138b4

Well, this one is filled with shamrocks and plastic gold coins. However, I doubt the leprechauns would be fooled by this one.

24. Those who don’t care for a shamrock wreath can always go with flowers.

66a314e4a212bc942487e01cc0b7a75b

Well, as long sa the flowers are green, white, and yellow. Oh, and the foliage consists of English ivy. Still, pretty.

25. For Saint Patty’s Day kisses, this sign will show everyone that you’re Irish.

69c52d585db594249bdd0d0de1e69af6

And this sign has plenty of kisses to go around. I’m sure this was painted on wood and put on a stand.

26. Nothing says Saint Patrick’s Day than gracing your home with some wooden shamrocks on stands.

82da348da26891aa94031b016e63edb3

And they seem to come in different colors and patterns. The sparkly green one is my favorite out of these 3.

27. For Saint Patrick’s Day wreath, green and white always make a wonderful contrast.

91d6d4e222380db55c124618e12b70a1

This one is covered in white with flowers and shamrocks. And it’s held by a green polka dot ribbon. Great for any door on Saint Patrick’s Day.

28. If you want to get even more lucky on Saint Patrick’s Day, it helps if you put some shamrocks in a frame.

2c4b59babac54ec835adf34d14230fb1

Because you can never have enough shamrocks in shades of green for one frame. Some of these even have glitter on them.

29. Happy Saint Patrick’s Day with this leprechaun wreath.

93d2167152a8ad034d6b08faf79ef8a4

Sure it doesn’t show the whole leprechaun but it has a hat and legs. Wreath is also in the shape of a heart.

30. Add color to your Saint Patrick’s Day table with these rainbow wands.

482feabc4687b42725fa04d6d0a1149d

These make great toys for kids. And it also makes a great table centerpiece that you can use for years even when they get older.

31. Luck will always come this Saint Patrick’s Day when you have a large shamrock at your door.

514d84df9aacc02ad3895bfac52b4fe5

This one is said to be covered in green cloth scraps. But it has the word, “Lucky” at the center. Still, I like it.

32. When it comes to Saint Patrick’s Day wreaths, a rainbow one can’t go without shamrocks.

817bf5f82f09d1812f319abe591d516a

Yes, this is another rainbow wreath for Saint Patrick’s Day. But this one has shamrocks on the side unlike the previous one.

33. This Saint Patrick’s Day wreath is guaranteed to bring you luck in stripes.

888af32385fee453cabd2de607422801

I bet whoever made this used a lot of green and white ribbon. Still, I like the shamrock in the center though.

34. For the more rustic type on Saint Patrick’s Day, these blocks will suit your home just fine.

7ba91a5f4bb8a3a62d71cf6bef14b4b1

These consist of shamrocks, leprechaun beard and coat, leprechaun hat and shoes, and a pot of gold. And they’re all painted a dark green and white.

35. A tulle wreath like this on Saint Patrick’s Day will bring you a lot of luck.

57312cd4d2eb2059c9b42dce3f9eb990

Well, it’s my second tulle wreath of green on this post. But it’s made in a different variation than the previous one.

36. Celebrate this Saint Patrick’s Day with your very own leprechaun hat.

057766e0c8e4f6f0c3225c24add993a1

Has a headband to help you put it on and keep on your head. Yet, it’s touched with a green shamrock and a shiny belt buckle.

37. There’s bound to be a pot of gold on this rainbow wreath.

670544abfc33d863ce889a8e1aa54072

Sure the rainbow on this one is neverending. But at least there’s a pot of gold smack dab in the center.

38. A leprechaun hat like this comes in wooden blocks.

9453869d31b161d96d1c8171f3d98424

Nevertheless, it looks great on anyone’s table. But depending on whether these might be glued on together, some assembly may be required.

39. Those wanting the leprechaun’s pot of gold might want to set up a trap like this.

acb9bdd1a091b300177df281f8d8f72c

However, if you live in the Harry Potter universe, keep in mind that it’s a worthless endeavor. Because even if you do catch a leprechaun that leads you to his pot of gold, the gold will just disappear in a few hours anyway.

40. A golden shamrock is always a fine addition to any home on Saint Patrick’s Day.

9910f7796947a088201081f2454a081e

This shamrock is made from thumbtacks on a green background. However, before you do any thumbtack art, make sure it’s on a thick flat surface.

41. Store your golden goodies this Saint Patrick’s Day in this rainbow glitter vase.

b5f3ec6d84085e33eb37b3bb528058ce

Sure the gold in here is candy. But I do love the glittery rainbow on this thing. However, glitter glue does make a big mess as I remember correctly.

42. Be extra lucky this Saint Patrick’s Day with this lucky charm bracelet.

b7ef964515efc988f8145b1a6847eb4f

Because on a holiday like Saint Patrick’s Day, this kind of stuff has to exist. Includes horseshoes, rainbows, Irish flags, shamrocks, pots of gold, and a leprechaun.

43. If you got empty green bottles, put some green flowers in them.

bfd7b59e7d3be04f67e2bf6808d06728

Of course, you’ll have to make the flowers first. But these ones look very lovely.

44. This Saint Patrick’s Day, turn some old toilet paper rolls into leprechauns.

c2642b8c6a1b28b0d7af31ba2403a7eb

Sure this is more of kid’s project. But these are nevertheless adorable. I especially like the beards.

45. Grace your front door this Saint Patrick’s Day with a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

240d001bf5118568edfc96bf26582713

Well, it’s decorated with plastic coins and shamrocks. However, I think the rainbow is the best part of this.

46. Proclaim your Irishness this Saint Patrick’s Day with these blocks.

c63263b51badb77e0b0211b5736724ec

Well, I have to but block stuff somewhere in this post. And I might as well go with these.

47. Welcome visitors to your humble home this Saint Patrick’s Day with this block decoration.

aada4bb5e8d326dc113d41f482607715

Might not light up like previous ones I showed you on other posts. But it sure looks pretty to put on a mantle or buffet table.

48. Adorn your hair this Saint Patrick’s Day with this shamrock clip.

46506d0404bad3bd97ce10351776d2ab

The button is made from wood while the other shades of green are made from felt. Still, it’s cute.

49. An empty bottle of Irish cream always makes a great place for flowers.

3a537273f96cd1c2fb5bf282d591e214

And I’m sure this decoration would make a great centerpiece. Love the glitter and the shamrocks on this one though.

50. You can’t attend a Saint Patrick’s Day parade without a pair of pot of gold earrings.

d95b54c4059b097dda64eb479edfd356

I’m sure this isn’t for weak lobes like mine (as I learned the hard way). Still, you have to like the pots of gold on these.

51. A lucky lass on Saint Patrick’s Day always has shamrocks in her hair.

d883f835d32419dffbe7eeb5e917a74a

Yes, these are shamrocks on barettes. But these do look adorable even when not on someone’s hair.

52. Green flowers always go great near any fireplace.

daec52cc3d02239da0a783428f9c73ad

For some reason, I usually don’t see flowers as green. Probably because I’m more used seeing the green on the leaves and stems.

53. Show your love for the Irish this Saint Patrick’s Day with these shamrock heart hair clips.

daf0971859345b04811b4a136ad48e6f

Sure they may be better suited for young girls. But you have to admit, these are pretty adorable to say the least.

54. Nothing makes Irish eyes smile more than a green bauble wreath.

de04d4c746c439c05589db6d4736f948

Just to warn you, baubles are delicate things so be very careful not to drop any while handling them. Still, I do love the shamrock ribbon on this thing.

55. A sizeable hat makes a great trap for a leprechaun.

de4fddb7d44f0a220aedd624689da18a

Not sure what the hat is made of (which is possibly felt or construction paper). Still, I do like the twig ladder and the sign.

56. Celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day this year wearing a light up tutu of an Irish flag.

a4c0e802c26b9b263af14562a4132fb9

If it weren’t for the shamrock waistline, I’d swear this would be great for wearing at a football game at my old high school. Not that I would.

57. For Saint Patrick’s Day ceiling decorations, you can’t go wrong with a rainbow cloud.

df5f56c020010e79c589b92030371ee4

Well, I know this is more or less advertised as a birthday decoration. But since rainbows are associated with Saint Patrick’s Day, it goes on the post.

58. Nothing brings you in the spirit of Saint Patrick’s Day than a tulle leprechaun wreath at your door.

df408b9cb5f5fabb2205bc1ad363b6bb

And to capture Irish gingerness, the wreath is primarily orange. But it does have a green hat and pipe.

59. Keep warm this Saint Patrick’s Day with this leprechaun hat beanie.

5720ef5e8c5a81e162dab7f51e430da3

Not sure what size this is supposed to be. But at any rate, I have to like the buckle on this one.

60. For those who view Saint Patrick’s Day as a sacred holiday, this wreath is for you.

e4fdea3433b27d1790e46581c4a3f94b

Well, I had to put some religious imagery on this post with a Celtic cross. Because it is seen as a religious holiday in Ireland because Saint Patrick is their patron saint.

61. You can’t attend the Saint Patrick’s Day parade without the appropriate top hat.

c3cc2eeb233ce0b3e5516469773cf3e4

Now this is a fancy hat to wear to a parade. Not sure if I’d want to wear that during a mugshot though.

62. Bring the lucky spirit of Saint Patrick’s Day to your home by hanging this shamrock tapestry.

ea4c1ed096545a3d67ddab9f4e3c3b19

Made of felt with 4 shamrocks on them and the words “Luck” with a horseshoe “U.” Still, you have to want to hang this on your wall.

63. If you’re lucky this Saint Patrick’s Day, then say it with pennies.

ef3836639722aab50f31d05df0befa19

Pennies: the only form of US currency you can use for craft projects. Because they’re totally worthless as US currency.

64. Nothing says Saint Patrick’s Day like rainbow trees.

SONY DSC

Sure rainbows might not lead you to a pot of gold. But I sure like these trees. Bet they’re fertilized with unicorn poop.

65. The best spot to put a pot of gold is on a rainbow table runner.

c28e573dc1c2d3e5536b6eeec376183a

If it were me, I’d just go with the runner that’s made of felt. After all, who doesn’t love rainbows?

66. For some Saint Patrick’s Day fun, you can’t do without a leprechaun peg doll as well as his rainbow bunting and pot of gold.

51192e09c11ce655b2b29986917fbb37

Yes, this leprechaun is just chilling on his log with his pot of gold and rainbow. So cute.

67. Light up your home on Saint Patrick’s Day with this shamrock glass block lamp.

f7301fa15dde8e1cf3a97a7585b6b619

Well, the shamrock is a little lopsided if you look at it closely. But the border is nice.

68. With this costume, your little one will be the perfect little leprechaun.

fc74da415bce6d6740221d6537ad11c7

Sure it might lead to some embarrassing photo ops for your kid in the later years. But right now, they can’t really remember anyway.

69. On Saint Patrick’s Day, a wee Irish lass can’t go without her own pair of shoes.

5b3f4f82037ae999ca86e8dd9f3330d5

This is a pair of baby booties for baby girls for Saint Patrick’s Day. And yes, they’re adorable enough to make your heart melt.

70. Don’t like wreaths? This leprechaun door hanging is just for you.

f244e90937c0c45678ac23322184016d

Well. it only shows the hat and legs. And the flowers are fake. But still, looks quite festive.

71. It’s not Saint Patrick’s Day unless you see a leprechaun on a wooden panel.

5d8b99840b8af5cf3f4c43693611cde7

Well, it might require some nailing a board to get the hat. But the leprechaun seems to have a smile on his face.

72. Got old wine bottles? Decorate them for Saint Patrick’s Day.

5a136043a61ad4835c329dc1cc6fe444

Well, while one bottle is unchanged, the other ones are painted green and decorated for Saint Patrick’s Day. One has a leprechaun belt.

73. Keep your little leprechaun warm this Saint Patrick’s Day with this little stocking cap.

35ebd51d36258d08b78dd35c115551cd

Yes, it comes with a fake beard to keep your baby’s chin warm. Still, it’s incredibly adorable.

74. For Saint Patrick’s Day, you can’t raise a better glass than this one.

2d64077f789e8dc76c0b080f3920552c

Like the saying on this, “Kiss me, I’m drunk. I mean Irish.” Not sure if you’d want to drink with this one.

75. Nothing says Saint Patrick’s Day than a potted rainbow.

64e8f272e6b437fdc428eee82da55ea7

Well, it’s a pot of gold with a rainbow and cloud on top. This is so clever, creative, and cute.

76. On Saint Patrick’s Day, cuddle up with this little leprechaun doll.

ff6b50454df0b24a16ef0994b0ada504

This is a knitted leprechaun doll which is derived from a pattern. Nevertheless, this is adorable.

77. Go to the Saint Patrick’s Day this year with a feather in your hat.

30c053ff9fae940bc6a11d4e0096f996

Now this hat looks rather snazzy. Like the shamrock bow on this one. Wouldn’t want to be drunk wearing it though.

78. A glass block lamp like this can bring out a shiny shamrock.

42136802a2a13f6ee01503c3aeefb8c6

Yes, I know this is another glass block light. But this one has a ribbon and a shinier shamrock.

79. Bring the spirit of Saint Patrick’s Day without this tulle rainbow cloud wreath.

il_570xN.427974287_j7wp

Now I wouldn’t mind having a wreath like this for Saint Patrick’s Day. Also, like the shamrock in the center.

80. For a little boy and girl, these leprechaun hats are perfect match.

2aa5465e6ddf052a22a01156b2b6a03c

Yes, one might have a beard and another with braids. But either way, these are so cute.

If you have small children, make sure that they're not upturned at the side of the house. Because the little one's might get upset if they've seen the Wizard of Oz.
