When the kiddos want to craft, sometimes it’s hard to think of something creative. Our newest DIY project is an easy Easter craft for kids. This bunny pencil holder is kid-friendly, adorable, and perfect for upcoming Easter celebrations.

Hi, everyone! Lisa reporting for DIY duty. I put together a DIY Bunny Pencil Holder and I am so eager to share it with you today!

When my nieces were growing up, I’d often hear them say, “Aw, man! I’m totally bored!” “Auntie, do you have any crafts that we can do?”

It can get really tough coming up with new ideas. Ideally, kid-friendly DIYs are cute, easy and a snap to clean up.

This is how I came up with my Bunny Pencil Holder.

I always love adding touches of thematic décor during special holidays. I don’t go all out, but little details here and there can create a beautiful yet, subtle impact. My Bunny Pencil Holder DIY is not only a great craft for kids but something useful for the season.
