This idea was inspired by Ms. Not So Perfect’s Egg Bouquet, which we fell in love with on Pinterest. We turned that cheerful decoration into a romantic Easter gift—filled with little notes your spouse can open one by one.

Why This Makes Such a Sweet Easter Gift

Store-bought Easter gifts are easy to forget. A handmade one with notes in your own words? That’s the kind of thing a spouse keeps. This little bouquet is inexpensive, surprisingly quick to make, and endlessly customizable—sweet and sentimental, playful and flirty, or somewhere in between. It doubles as cheerful spring decor, and you can even stretch it into a week-long countdown to Easter. If you love the idea of leaving little notes for your spouse, you’ll also want our big collection of love notes and free printables.

What You’ll Need

• 1 clear plastic candy pail
• 7–10 wooden skewers (6-inch worked great)
• 7–10 plastic Easter eggs (a mix of larger and smaller sizes)
• Egg note printables (see below)
• Jellybeans, Skittles, or M&M’s — your spouse’s favorite
• Scissors
• Ribbon

For the notes, you can use the darling Easter egg printables designed by Leah Aldous (including a “Somebunny Loves You” banner), or grab ready-to-go notes from our 80+ love notes & free printables. Print your set, then cut out each egg note and the banner.

How to Make an Easter Egg Bouquet

1. Place the banner inside the plastic pail, front and center. The paper often wraps around the inside edge snugly—no tape required.
2. Fill the pail with your spouse’s favorite candy. For extra flair, tie ribbon to each side of the handle.
3. Here’s the fun part: pick the notes you want to surprise your spouse with and tuck one inside each empty plastic egg.
4. Attach the eggs to the wooden skewers (the pointed end fits right into the hole in the bottom of the egg).
5. Add any extra embellishments you like, such as more ribbon.
6. Arrange the egg-topped skewers in the pail—the candy holds everything upright like a bouquet.

Fun Ways to Customize It

• Mix egg sizes. Tuck notes into the larger eggs and candy into the smaller ones.
• Add a little spice. Hide a flirty or intimacy-focused surprise in one egg for a date night later—a few ideas from our guide to spicing things up work perfectly.
• Turn it into a countdown. Make one egg for each day leading up to Easter and let your spouse open one per day.
• Finish the look. A little crinkle-cut paper shred on top makes it look extra polished (totally optional).

Short on Time? Try This

No time for the full bouquet? No problem. Use the printable notes on their own: sprinkle the cute sayings around the house for a quick Easter scavenger hunt, or turn one note into a little candy container as a grab-and-go surprise. Even a single sweet note tucked in your spouse’s bag or on the bathroom mirror makes their morning. The possibilities are endless!
