Getting Creative with Good Cook Lemon Keepers

Posted on 13:15 by Unknown

Do you ever consider re-purposing household items? It can be a great way to involve kids, reuse items, and have unique items in your house.  Recently, I was challenged by Good Cook to find some unique crafts and uses for their Lemon Keepers. So, my daughter (who is extremely creative) and I put on our thinking caps and came up with a couple of fun ideas!

Idea 1:  Better than an Easter Egg Candy Keeper!


It is a little off season, but fun nonetheless! Consider making a Lemon Keeper into an adorable chick. You can then put Easter candy right inside. These can be used for your kids or can be a fantastic treat for your child to bring in for Easter school parties! My daughter was very involved in making her new feathered friend!

You will need:
Bag of craft feathers
Googly eyes
Yellow paper
Craft glue
Scissors

Instructions:
Separate the two pieces of the Lemon Keeper and work on each section separately  Cut feathers in different lengths to fit each section of the Lemon Keeper. Apply feathers with glue, using a layering technique to cover the entire plastic area. Cut a small diamond out of the paper and fold in half to create the beak. Glue beak and eyes onto the feathered top half of the Lemon Keeper. Glue extra feathers onto each side to create a winged look. Place candies inside and close the Lemon Keeper. It is now ready for gifting!



Idea 2: Cupcake Holder Party Favor
This idea was my daughter's..my future baker! She thought these would be the perfect size for a cupcake and she was right. This is a really quick and easy craft and can be personalized in any way to match your party's theme. Bella went through all of our stickers and craft paper and decorated this one herself (with minimal help from me). The ribbon was simply tied into a bow and glued on with craft glue. To get the cupcake out, you simply pull it out with a fork. This is a great way to send the party guests home with an extra treat!


Want some Produce Keepers or your own? Come back in a week to enter my Good Cook Produce Keeper Giveaway: There will be 4 winners!

I was provided with Lemon Keepers in exchange for this post. All opinions expressed are my own.
