Easter Peeps Centerpiece
I love cooking, baking and decorating for any type of holiday or celebration. I have to admit decorating isn’t always my strong suit, but love the way it jazzes up a room and perks everyone up.
Pinterest is a great place to find ideas. While browsing the site I saw so many darling Easter decorations, but Easter Peeps Centerpieces were plentiful. I’d love to say this was my creation but it’s not. Although based on the variety on Pinterest I’m not sure who created these.
Here’s my version, although I have to say my jelly beans were with all the Easter candy, so I would have thought them to be pastel colored – they’re not. Even still, I think my centerpiece is darling!
What do you think?
Easter Peeps Centerpiece
Ingredients:
- 3-inch cube vase
- 5-inch cube vase
- Jelly Beans
- Gerberas Daisies
- Hyacinths
- 1 pack of Peeps
Directions:
Gerberas are sold with plastic tubes on the stems, perfect for supporting them. Keeping the plastic in place, cut the Gerberas and plastic if needed, to desired length along with Hyacinths, and arrange in vase. Flowers around exterior should be cut shorter than those towards the center of the vase….Select your favorite flowers!
Note:
I used a 3 and 5 inch vase but you could also use the 4 and 6 inch vases or even rectangular vases. Whatever suits you.
I’m lousy when it comes to floral arranging but this is easy. These vases can be used all year with various colored marbles, rocks, shredded colored paper or jelly beans. Then fill with your favorite flowers. The perfect low centerpiece anytime.
Isn’t it adorable? I sure think so!
I love this! Now I’m going to have to rummage around and see if I can find some vases that will work for this. Those little peeps in there are adorable. 🙂
Betty this was so simple and fun. It took no time at all the whip this together once I gathered up all my materials. It just brightens up my kitchen, and smells good too!
Such a beautiful and fun centerpiece!
I think so too – and so would my kids!!

Such a cute idea! Even I could pull this off!
Love this idea Vicky, the only problem is I would be tempted to eat the centerpiece before the company arrived!
Hehe we don’t really get Peeps here but I wish we did! 😀 Cute idea!
I don’t have the decorating gene, but I’ll bet even I could do this. That is, as long as I didn’t eat all the peeps! And most of the jelly beans. 😉 Really fun idea – thanks.
What a great idea for a centerpiece! You are so clever! 🙂
What a darling idea. It’s things like this that get me excited for easter!!

I need to get a vase like that! What an adorable Easter arrangement, Vicki.
I love the Peeps all standing at attention in the vase. Now, that’s a perfect centerpiece for the holiday. 😉
I have always wanted to try this. I’ve done it with lemons and it’s adorable. I must try this asap.
