Confetti Egg Gift

I feel like almost every post I mention how fast time is flying...is that just something that happens the older you get?! Okay so Easter. Easter is THIS Sunday!  I am a big believer that it's never to late to craft, decorate or celebrate a holiday.  So here's a fun idea to spread the Easter fun around!
 Pick up a pack of confetti eggs at the dollar store or Walmart also has them for $1 too. I grabbed a pack of these blank egg cartons from Hobby Lobby because I knew I'd find something to do with them. So HAH! A little of that paper "grass", glue, twine & some cute paper.
 Start by tracing the top of your egg carton on the paper & cut it out.
 Glue it down, be sure not to use too much so you avoid bubbles.
 Optional: take a pen or a tag and write "Hip, Hop, Smash" on the paper once it's dry.
 Now to fill it up! Take just a little bit of that grass and press it in real good.  Putting too much in will make the container too thick and you won't be able to close it.
One of my favorite things about buying these confetti eggs is the difference of colors.  Aaaand a close second is that fact that I didn't have to make them!
 Wrap around that twine! I used light blue, yellow and pink and wrapped it 3 times.  (If your carton had trouble closing because of the grass, just tie that twine super tight!)
 How cute is that?! For extra bonus points, deliver that to a neighbor, friend or surprise family!
