3 Adorable Bunny Buys For Easter

April 14, 2014 by Shellie Wilson

easter-party-picnic-oriental-trading-supplies

Every year we play host to a Easter Picnic in our local park. Every year I add a little more to the “theme” box and this year was no exception. Our Easter picnic takes place Easter Sunday so we have had the full enjoyment out of these new supplies. I didn’t want you to miss out on them so I am sharing them before the party.

Oriental trading gave me some store credit and I loved getting the most for my buck with these fantastic buys!

Giant chocolate bunny –  $5.18 –  He is either going to be the centerpiece or a photo prop. I think he is so cute that everyone will want a photo with him.

Easter Carrots. $6.98 a dozen. These were so cheap I couldn’t resist I am thinking a garland or a few throwing games for the adults depending on the wind conditions.

Hoppy Sacks – $14 a Dozen. I probably bought too many of these 24 to be exact without thinking that the 20+ kids could actually take turns and play in heat rounds. They seem very durable and are sure to last more than a few picnics which is fantastic.

I have some more great ideas too but you will need to wait to after Easter to see those.

Here are a few more of the great buys I bought.

Glitter Easter Tattoos  $5 for 72.

Chocolate Bunny Poem Kit. $5.68 for 12.

last Year we used these stickers on mason jar’s for salads and rice salads to go.

Crochet Pattern Review: Woodland Wonders Blanket

Whimsical, textured, and bursting with nature-inspired charm — this blanket is a true heirloom in the making.

Every so often, a pattern comes along that makes you stop scrolling and go, “Oh wow… I need to make that.” The Woodland Wonders Blanket is exactly that kind of project. Designed by Hooked on Sunshine (who’s known for her richly textured masterpieces), this one is all about celebrating the beauty of the natural world, one magical stitch at a time.

And yes — it’s trending hard right now, with good reason. It’s part blanket, part fairytale.

This pattern isn’t just pretty — it’s thoughtful. Each section represents a little moment from nature: pinecones, leaves, mushrooms, trees… even the tiny bumps of acorns and wild berries. It feels like crocheting your way through an enchanted forest, and it’s honestly one of the most joyful projects I’ve worked on this year.

There’s a story behind every row, and it’s the kind of project that invites slow making and sweet daydreaming. Perfect for autumn evenings or those quiet pockets of time when you just want to lose yourself in stitches.

The pattern is written in rounds and comes with incredible support — detailed row-by-row instructions, gorgeous step-by-step photos, and full video tutorials for visual learners. Hooked on Sunshine really knows how to take care of her crocheters!

Skill-wise, this one leans intermediate to advanced. There are front posts, popcorns, clusters, cables — it’s a full buffet of textured stitches. But it’s so well explained that even an ambitious beginner could take it on with patience and practice.

And can I just say? It’s wildly satisfying to watch each textured motif bloom beneath your hook.

This blanket is stunning in earthy tones — soft moss greens, bark browns, golden wheat, mushroom greys. But I’ve also seen versions in rainbow brights, moody jewel tones, and even all white (which gives it a beautifully classic lace look). There’s endless room for creativity here.

Most versions use DK weight yarn, and the pattern gives excellent guidance on quantities, including options for different blanket sizes.
