Are you hopping-ready for some eggs-ceptional Easter crafting? There’s something truly magical about bringing handmade charm into your home, especially during this lovely time of year. Crafting at Easter isn’t just about creating cute decorations; it’s a chance to slow down, connect, and revel in the simple pleasures of creativity.
Getting crafty at Easter is a wonderful way to nurture creativity and imagination in both kids and adults alike. Whether you’re stitching, painting, or gluing, crafting allows you to express yourself in ways that words simply can’t.
It’s an opportunity to learn new skills, experiment with different materials, and let your imagination run wild. Plus, there’s something incredibly satisfying about turning a few simple supplies into something truly special. If you’re anything like me, you’ve got loads of fabric leftovers, snippets of cardboard, balls of wool and half a dozen types of glue ready to be put to work! 💪
As the Easter bunny prepares to make his annual visit, why not join in on the fun and add a sprinkle of homemade charm to your celebrations? Whether you’re crafting solo, with family, (or with your friends!), there’s no shortage of eggs-citing projects to explore.
So, grab a hold of your crafting supplies, get crafty, and make this Easter one to remember!

What can kids (and adults!) make at Easter? Here’s 7 fun family-friendly Easter crafts to try!
Are many of these Easter crafts ideal for kids? Of course!
But, if you want to make any of these crafts alone, go for it! Spending creative time with your kids is not a MUST to be able to enjoy your fabric stash and having messy fingers.
If you find it getting stressful crafting or sewing (whether with or without the kids 😅), try lightening the mood with this Easter joke:
Q. What do you call a Zen Easter egg?
A. An ommmmlet.
01. String Easter Eggs Craft
I have seen this type of craft before and yet somehow, never tried it. These eye-popping, egg-shaped creations are just too gorgeous to ignore!
All you need is thread of some type (here she used embroidery floss, but wool would work too), balloons and glue and you’re on your way! Budget-friendly and family-friendly, these string Easter eggs are a cute and simple Easter project to make.
Get glueing and creating with the tutorial at Craft Whack.
02. Easter Chick Fork Painting
Who knew that baby chicks could look so adorable, even when in paper form?!? Another fabulous budget-friendly, dig-around-in-your-crafty-drawers Easter project! Little kids will love making this alongside anyone else willing to play with paints.
Grab a fork and some yellow paint to get crafting! The chick in this craft tutorial not only has a cute beak but also big googly eyes. Why not try adding a couple of yellow feathers for wings to create the most adorable baby chicken this Easter?

03. Salt Painting Easter Egg Craft
I’ve heard about salt paining before but never really got the idea of how to make it work. This tutorial explains exactly how, step by step to get you creating Easter eggs as stunningly-coloured as the wrapped store-bought ones. But using paper!
Use your Easter egg decorating skills using the free egg templates, mix up your gluey concoction, grab your watercolour paints and get designing!

04. Bunny Wreath Tutorial
I know there are people who love hanging a wreath at their front door and are sure to have one to match every season and special holiday stored away waiting to be used. This bunny wreath is eggs-tra special, in that it isn’t your traditional round wreath shape!
Using vine wreaths, wire, cute flowers and ribbon your probably have in your stash already, you’ll be able to create an eggs-traordinary bunny shaped-wreath!

05. Easter Egg Garland Using Paint Chips
Hardware stores aren’t just about power tools, light bulbs and timber. They’re also the location where you’ll find dozens and dozens of those little coloured paint swatch cards that be used for a million craft projects. Like in this Easter egg garland!
Sneak on into your local store and grab a few in your favourite Easter colour tones, draw yourself an egg shape and cut out as many card eggs as you’d like to form your Easter garland. Get the kids involved with this crafty project too!

06. Pom-Pom Bunnies
When you follow the link and see the photos of these pom-pom bunnies, you’ll understand how you can’t possibly stop at one! I imagine if we made some of these, they’d never stay in one place, as I know my kids wouldn’t be able to resist picking them up and giving the bunnies a snuggle!
If you don’t have a proper pom-pom ring, don’t worry; just draw your own up using cardboard. Grab thick, plush yarn (I do like that tip!) and some beads for the bunny’s face and get crafting!

I love an easy fabric craft and this one is perfect for all ages to make. And you don’t even need a sewing machine! This is a cute Easter craft that you can keep or give as gifts.
With some thick felt, twine, googly eyes and cute lollipops (they don’t need to be the brand recommended) you and your children can quickly whip up some of these cute Easter pouches containing colourful chicks that are (almost) too sweet to eat!
