If you are one of those families who bought a crate of PEEPs and still has some leftover after Easter (What; you didn’t eat them all?!), here are some great ideas to make them fun and use up your leftover PEEPs creatively!
Crafts, decorating ideas, recipes and printables can help you stashbust those PEEPs!
Note: If you are creating permanent decorations or crafts, use shellac so that they don’t go bad or get squished. Be sure to keep any shellacked PEEPs from kids and pets!

This is going to my son who would rather blow up Peeps in a microwave than to eat them.
