Alternative Easter Basket Idea for Kids and Adults: See this fun DIY tutorial on How to make an Easy, Simple Easter In A Jar present! Last minute gift idea that’s quick to make!

Usually I have my act together and gifts prepared in advance…

…but this year Easter snuck up on me! 

Last week I realized that Easter is this weekend (um, where did March go??!!) and I didn’t have any Easter gifties made yet for my hubs or boys!

So this year due to my loss of space and time I went the simple and easy route to make these

Last Minute, easy and fabulous ‘Easter in a Jar’ presents!

How to make a Easy Simple Easter in a Jar  Present!

 When the boys were younger I would make them big extravagant Easter baskets…. they are a bit older now, but who doesn’t love getting chocolate for Easter?

The bonus is that this is a gift that keeps on giving!  After the chocolate is eaten and the ‘Easter in a Jar’ is emptied, the jar can be used for storage and organization!

My hubs can use his jar in the garage to store nails, screws ect…

….Our oldest can use it to hold his loose change and pens..

…and our youngest can use it to hold his Game Boy games, Lego, or rock collections!
