I like this idea for an Easter egg receptacle.  We’re going to be away from home this Easter and staying in a B&B,  so this is a good idea for somewhere for the Easter Bunny to leave eggs for the children.  It’s messy and a great kids’ craft and it’s made of stuff that is free, natural or would otherwise end up in the bin.
