When Easter comes around, what sweet treat do you think of? Chocolate bunnies? Jelly beans? I immediately think of the sugary goodness of fluorescent Peeps. No Easter basket is complete without some Peeps! Yellow chick Peeps. Pink bunny Peeps. Chocolate covered Peeps. All kinds of Peeps! Who doesn’t love Peeps? And even if you don’t like their marshmallowy goodness (are you crazy?!) aren’t they still the cutest things ever?!

Peeps have moved beyond just being a sugary Easter treat. There are some awesome dioramas being created, featuring Peeps in various settings from rock concerts to soccer to Peep weddings. And haven’t you always wanted a Peep necklace or Peep scarf? No worries! Some amazing crafters have turned Peeps into jewelry, crocheted plushies, and more. Continue on for some of my favorite finds…

    No problem! The mini bunny Peeps were too cute to resist. If only I wore bracelets.

    ah ha! I totally voted for the TSA peepshow at the Washington Post! This is a great article. I can’t rationally explain why I love the sugary puff…but YUM! I also am a fan of the robin eggs. Don’t like normal malted milk balls, but something about the candy coating speaks to me :)
