It doesn't always have to be a basket at Easter: filled glasses also make a great impression - for example as a creative gift for Easter coffee.
Whether as a souvenir, as a table decoration or as a small Easter basket for the children: Glasses can be filled with Easter grass, chocolate eggs and other small gifts and given as gifts.
We show how you can easily implement this creative gift idea.
Tinker Easter nest in a glass - that's what you need for it
empty screw-top jars with lids (e.g. jam jars)
solid construction paper for bunny ears
Hot glue gun with glue
easter grass
Sweets like chocolate eggs and chocolate bunnies

Step 1: Clean jam jars
If you use old jam jars or preserving jars, first clean the glass with a little washing-up liquid and water and remove any labels.
Adhesive residue can be removed with a little cooking oil.
Step 2: Cut out and glue bunny ears
Now cut out two bunny ears of the right size from firm construction paper.
It is best to use white construction paper for the inner surface of the ears so that they stand out well and glue them to the large bunny ears.
Now fold back a flap at the lower end of the ears and glue it to the lid in the middle with a little hot glue.
Step 3: fill glasses
Now fill the jam jars as desired.
First put some Easter grass on the bottom of the jar and then put some sweet Easter treats like chocolate eggs or other small gifts inside.

Step 4: Decorate the Easter basket in the glass
Finally, the glass can be decorated as you wish, for example with a bow around the edge of the lid.
Adhesive labels can be written with an Easter greeting to your loved ones.
The souvenir for Easter coffee or an Easter present for your children is ready.
We wish you a "Happy Easter"!
