Easter treat jar

At this time of year, the shops fill up with sweets and plastic toys. Children are bombarded with chocolate, more than they could ever eat, and the sentiment of gift-giving can be lost amongst the plastic packaging. Instead of buying Easter eggs, I like to do something a little bit different for the little people in my life. A home-made, thoughtful touch that I hope they will remember and talk about as adults. I love homemade gifts! And my Easter Treat Jar isn’t limited to giving to children, it could be personalised for your husband or wife as a keepsake, or perhaps as a gift for your parents to celebrate the coming of spring. Of course, you can fill your treat jars with chocolate as I do here, but what about finding a candle, a family heirloom, or an old photo instead. Get creative!
