Easter fun!

Happy Easter!!
Today I'm gonna show you 3 things to make your Easter special!!

•Jelly bean bracelet
If you are anything like me, and practically get jelly beans thrown at you in the days leading up to Easter, then this is the project for you.

Supplies: Thread,  needle,  jelly beans

1. Thread the needle. Make sure it's big enough to fit around your wrist.
2. (Optional) If you want your bracelet to last, you can paint each jelly bean with clear nail polish. It can get a bit sticky if you don't polish them, but I find it easier to just do without and throw them out at the end of the day.
3. String on the jelly beans. If you are making multiples, you can shake it up by stringing some vertically and some horizontally.
4. Yays! You're done!

•Egg-celent scuba diver (Heh Heh. See what I did there?)
It's adorable! I named mine Larry.

Supplies: Tempera paint,  paper,  hollow egg,  bottle cap,  straw,  rubber band
















1. Cut out flippers from paper.
2. Paint on swim trunks.
3. Cut straw appropriate size.
4. Draw eyes on bottle cap. Glue rubber band onto cap.
5. Assemble.
6. Ta da! Name him!
