Jellybean Edible Bouquet
Enjoy assembling (and eating) these delicious edible art projects with your kids. This Jellybean Edible Bouquet is perfect for spring, from the bright spring colors to the traditional Easter candies. The jellybeans look like tiny flower buds while the green M&Ms form a cozy blanket of grass in the base of this delectable bouquet. Of course, you can make these DIY crafts for kids all year long by changing up the colors and candies. Try making a summer-themed kids craft using lemon drops to look like little snow cones!
In the Designer's Words: "Change out the colors for any occasion! Use all red for Valentine's Day, school colors for a graduate, or anything else you can dream up."
