The Best Easter Craft: A Peeps Diorama

-


 This site give you all the tips for making a Peeps diorama.


 I love putting together dioramas. You get to create your own little world. 

From this site, How to Make an Easy and Inexpensive Peeps Diorama, I learned there's a lot to creating these dioramas. For instance, if you are using the rabbit Peeps, it's a lot easier if you cut their little bottoms off flat and let them dry out a bit. Who knew?

It's great bit of fun to try out your creativity this time of year.
