What crafts can I make for Easter? Well, there are so many cute ideas, but my favorite so far this year is this new Easter candy holder craft! This papercraft project is a fun and easy Easter craft for adults and kids. For this kid-friendly Easter craft, I am featuring an Easter bunny SVG, a chick (or peep) SVG design, an Easter basket SVG candy holder, and six free SVG easter egg holders!

You can use these Easter candy holder SVG cut files with your Cricut machine and put your favorite candy inside! I’ve recently fallen in love with candy holders made with my Cricut and created many other templates such as my dog and cat candy holders!

And if you are looking for more free Easter SVG files, be sure to check out my favorite collection of Easter designs here.

I created the Easter egg candy holders in a separate video below, but the mechanics are all the same as the rest of the candy crafts. You will need to watch the first video here if you need help setting the files up in Design Space.

My favorite part about this easy Easter candy holder craft is how easy it is to peel the back off to access the candy or gift inside. The recipient can enjoy the cute springtime gift long after the candy gift is gone!

If you do not own a Maker model, which is required for any Quick swap tools (such as the perforation blade). But since the first video was made, we have updated the files so that the perforation is ready for you to use with the standard fine-point blade!

Changing Operation to Perforate

How to use the perforation tool in Design Space.

Once you have imported the files into Design Space, you will first want to scale the Easter SVG files to your desired size. I have the files set so that an 8cm plastic ball will work. If you wish to resize, then be sure to scale as a group and use that spare circle included in the files as a guide reference.

After you have set the size of your Easter candy holders, ungroup the layers by using the Ungroup tool to the top right. Select just the circle with the tab at the top and change the operation to Perforate.

Finally, hold your shift key and select the perforated circle and the solid base piece. Use the Attach tool to attach those two pieces together. This ensures that perforation occurs, as shown on the screen when moving to the cut screen.

Easy Easter Candy Craft For Adults and Kids

  1. Download the templates in our Craft Vault. The Easter eggs are free if you do not wish to become a premium member.
  2. Import the files into Design Space. I used my Cricut machine to cut the SVG templates. If you are new to Cricut, read my tutorial on uploading an SVG file to Design Space.
  3. To change the size of your Easter candy holder, you will need to scale the files as a group – this is important to keep proportions correct.
  4. If you own a Maker model, then set your perforation line and attach it to the base layer.
  5. Once you have cut out all layers in your choice of cardstock colors, start with the two largest layers (the base and the one with the hole for the half ball), which will sandwich the ornament ball.
  6. Add foam tabs along the back of the layer with the hole.
  7. Fill your plastic ball with candy and place it down on the solid base piece with the perforation or scorlines.
  8. Layer the piece with the hole cut out over the plastic ball.
  9. To complete each Easter candy holder add-on the extra details. For some, I use the Tomobow glue or Bearly Art glue (usually the more intricate pieces).
  10. Repeat this with any of the Easter candy holder designs the same way.
  11. And that’s it! Make several and hand them out to family or friends, and watch their faces light up!
