Oh Hoppy Day ... A Sweet Idea for Easter Entertaining

Here's a simple idea for a centrepiece that can be made well in advance of the Easter long weekend. Our glass jars with lids come in a variety of different sizes and can be used to display Easter chocolates, cookies or any other sweets that you wish. 

In this centrepiece, we've displayed a large chocolate bunny in a tall glass container and used gold geometric candle holders to display smaller chocolate bunnies.

Course sugar and green sizzle was added to the bottom of the glass jar to hold the large chocolate bunny in place. Baby's breath was spray painted with pastel colours and placed around the base of the jar to create a wreath effect.

White satin ribbon was painted using water colour paint for a pop of colour and added to the jar and gold candle holders.

We added the "Hoppy Easter" lettering to the glass jar and you can do it too!

Here's how:

1. Download the lettering template and print it out size as is.

2. Cut out the lettering and position it inside the container as shown above. Use painter's tape to hold the paper in place. 

Using a white Sharpie water based paint marker, trace the lettering onto the outside of the glass. Don't worry about creating an exact copy of the lettering template. 

Once the faux hand lettering is dry, you can add the sugar, sizzle and bunny.
