I have another great way for you to use your plastic Easter eggs... turn them into peanuts. Baseball season is here and this is perfect for all the baseball fans. These peanuts are perfect for a baseball themed Easter basket, but there are so many other uses for them! These are perfect for home decor - fill a jar with them set them in the kitchen, turn them into a garland or use in a bowl on the coffee table!


Fill your Easter eggs and then glue them together in the middle with a hot glue gun.

Cut your butcher paper so it can easily wrap around the eggs. Add hot glue around the middle of the eggs and start wrapping the butcher paper around, making sure to squeeze in the middle.

Use hot glue to secure the end piece around the middle.

Press the ends down around the egg and use hot glue to secure.

Finally, add some lines on the peanut with a brown marker.

These peanuts are so cute! They would be perfect for a baby shower with a tag that says something like "thanks for celebrating our little peanut".

They would also look cool sitting in a basket at a bridal shower with a sign that says "Nuts about (bride) & (groom)"

They would be fun to use for birthday party.

These would also be so cool to hand out after a baseball game - or any sporting event.
