PEEP-LE PERSON

As the costume shop supervisor at Penn State University, Diane Toyos spends her days sewing wardrobes for the School of Theatre. She has worked on costumes ranging from gorilla and clown suits to ballgowns.

A crafter at home too, she hit upon the idea of a whimsical Peep-stamped towel for a spring gift. “Peeps just make me smile,” she says of the many marshmallowy projects she's tackled over the years.

In addition to these Easter towels, Diane has created a Peeps topiary and Twinkie race cars with Peep drivers. But Peeps aren't just for crafting; she also enjoys them in s’mores and dipped in chocolate fondue.
