Looking for a fun DIY Easter gift? In this post, I’m sharing a fun and frugal mason jar gift idea!

I’ve got a super cute, easy, and cheap DIY Easter gift for you!

Most of the items can be found at Dollar Tree! I love Dollar Tree, especially for craft projects and seasonal items.

These mason jar gifts would be a sweet & simple gift to family members, kids, church leaders, friends, and even your husband.

This would be fun craft to do with your kids, also!

DIY Easter Gift: Chalk Paint Bunny Mason Cars with Candy

Materials:

Mason Jars
Bunny sticker/vinyl
Chalk Paint (can substitute with what you have on hand)
Ribbon and/or twine
Candy
Easter grass (optional)
Scrap piece of scrapbook paper for tags
Hole punch
Scissors
Paintbrush

I already had mason jars, paint, scrapbook paper, and the vinyl to make my cutout. All I had to buy was ribbon, twine, candy, and a bag of Easter grass!

Final Cost for 2 jars (with leftover materials) : $6

Instructions:

1. Place bunny sticker or vinyl on mason jar

I used my Cricut machine for this. I found a bunny image, saved it, and used my Cricut machine to cut the image out of vinyl. You could also use a sticker.

2. Paint the jar

I used yellow and blue chalk paint for my mason jars.

Once they dried, I lightly sanded them to give a more rustic look.

Peel the sticker/vinyl off to reveal the bunny cutout.

3. Fill with goodies!

I placed some pink Easter grass in the bottom of each jar, and then added different chocolate Easter candies from Dollar Tree.

4. Attach ribbon and tag

I found some Easter ribbon at Dollar Tree, as well as a 3 pack of colored baker’s twine!

I made a simple Happy Easter! tag out of a scrap piece of scrapbook paper and used my Cricut to print on it. (I don’t have the best handwriting and I love the different Cricut fonts!)

Be creative with this DIY craft!

Here are some alternative ideas:

Use different color paints.
Add stripes to your jar with painter’s tape.
Can’t find a sticker/vinyl to use? Paint the jar, and leave an Easter egg shape in the middle! You could even add different color polka dots to it!
Use a different sticker/image like an Easter chick, Easter egg, cross, or even an initial.
Fill with bright color flowers instead of candy! Dollar Tree has a pretty decent selection of dried flowers.
Make a collection of 3 to gift.
