Gather your Peeps because it’s time to make Easter Bouquets!

Adults will love the Peeps Bouquet because it is so darn cute; college students will love it because they love anything from home; kids will love it because they love Easter Candy!

What do you need?
Peeps
A Container Filled with Foam
Bamboo Sticks
Ribbon
Easter Grass

The container I used came from Target. If you look in the “dollar” section of Target, you should find seasonal containers that will work perfectly and will only cost you $1!

Fill your container with floral foam except for the top inch. Leave that for Easter grass and candy filler! I used wrapped chocolate eggs as my filler!

Buy Peeps of any color! Today you can find them in lots of fun colors – pick your favorites!

Skewer the Peeps with your bamboo sticks and arrange them in your foam filled container. I broke off the ends of some of the sticks to get a nice variation in heights! Fill in around the sticks with Easter grass and add additional candy if you like!

Attach your bow to a bamboo fork with floral wire! The fork makes it easy to attach your beautiful bow to the Easter Bouquet!

How fun and easy was that?

Brighten someone’s day with a fun, fall, edible bouquet!

The Peep bouquet is perfect for any college student. It’s an easy treat for your student to share with fellow roommates or dorm mates! It is easy, fun and inexpensive!

My daughter’s freshman year, she was living in the dorms and I thought it would be fun to send a gift easily shared with others. I sent her the Peeps bouquet and she was so excited to receive it, she promptly hit the hall and shared the treat with other homesick freshmen. It worked perfectly!

This year, even though she is in an apartment, I thought it would be fun for the treat bouquet to double as a Halloween decoration! OK – it probably won’t last long as a decoration, but it will be cute for a little while!

Supplies:

Peeps – I used one package of pumpkin peeps and one package of ghosts – scary!!

Bamboo Skewers

Container – I filled the container with foam and covered the foam with dried moss! The container I found at Target for $1

Ribbon – I created a bow and attached it to a Bamboo fork with floral wire!

Since I needed to mail my bouquet, I bagged the Peeps and sealed the moss covered pot with GLAD’s Press’n Seal (love that stuff)

Now go out and make someone’s day with a Peeps Bouquet!

Here is my daughter with her Peeps Bouquet!
If I’m not mistaken, I believe a few Peeps are missing!

The only thing better than creating something beautiful is to share it with others!
