For some people, it isn't officially spring until March 20. Or the first morning you can walk outside without nine layers of clothes, actually feeling warmth on your skin and hope for the future (I mean, no wonder those Game of Thrones characters are always so freaked out about winter coming). But, for Cadbury Creme Egg lovers, the season hasn't begun until you start seeing those foil-wrapped chocolates pop up in stores.
The treats are the highlight of your Easter basket, blowing away jelly beans, Peeps, and Reese's Eggs. For those people, it's high time they took their obsession to the next level, wearing their heart on their, uh, heads. It's time for a Cadbury Creme Egg bonnet.
Brace yourselves, because you won't be able to handle just how adorable this is.
Ready? Okay, check it out:
Blogger Sian Robinson came up with the idea, after her son had to make an Easter bonnet for school and requested nothing "too girly." They settled on the beloved seasonal sweet, making it out of papier-mâché. Robinson blew up a balloon that was roughly the size of her son's head, then covered it in strips of newspaper dipped in a mixture of glue and water to create the egg shape. From there, she added foil around the edge, shaping it to look like the egg had been partially peeled open, then painted the top of the egg to resemble the candy.
For a timely twist on the craft, you could paint yours to look like Oreo Creme Eggs. Pretty eggvant-garde, right?
Check out Robinson's blog post for additional photos, and scan the comments for a more thorough breakdown of how you can recreate the look this Easter.
