On a scrap piece of paper, draw out the shape of an egg. π₯
Cut the egg shape out β this will be your stencil. βοΈ
Use the stencil to trace out egg shapes onto your choice of scrapbook/craft paper. βοΈ
Cut out the egg shapes youβve traced. βοΈ
Repeat this, creating egg cut-outs of difference colours & patterns. π
With a pair of scissors, cut the centre of a sturdy paper plate. βοΈ
Continue cutting until youβre left with only the outer borders of the plate. This forms your wreath base. βοΈ
Measure & cut out some yarn/twine. This is what you will be hanging the wreath with. π§΅
Fold the in half & loop it onto the wreath base.
Before pasting the eggs onto the base, arrange them in the desired order & check you have enough eggs.
On the back on the first egg cut-out, apply some glue. Paste the egg onto the base, next to the hanging line.
Repeat this with the rest of the egg cut-outs. Make sure to overlap them slightly.
TIP: Instead of using patterned paper, you can also decorate your own eggs on plain coloured paper!
To spice up your wreath, add a bow/flowers to the centre of it where the hanging line is.
You could also add a greeting in the middle of the wreath. π£
