Tutorial: DIY Flower Easter Eggs
Easter is right around the corner so it’s time to start sharing some creative and crafty ideas for the season! First up is this “DIY EASTER EGG” idea inspired by one of our most popular posts, a feature of Frog Prince Paperie’s DIY Pomander Flower Ball made the same way! Paula of Frog Prince Paperie is a crafty one for sure! I was so inspired by the pomander flower ball that I tried it on Easter eggs!
Read on for the steps (they’re so easy!) + find out when we’re hosting our biggest giveaway yet!
What you will need:
– Styrofoam Eggs (craft store such as Michaels)
– pearl push pins (sewing aisle of craft store)
– mini flowers (purchased at craft store or use a flower punch)
– ribbon to hang egg (optional)
– hot glue gun
– mini easter tree (optional)
These little floral easter eggs are SO EASY to make! Seriously, you could make a dozen while watching your favorite television show and bam, you have a whole tree’s worth!
Step 1: Pour out your mini flowers (or punch them out of craft paper).
Step 2: Using push pins (I like the ones with pearlized colored tops), push flower into sytrofoam egg
Step 3: Continue adding flowers (overlapping a bit so the styrofoam does not show through) until egg covered.
Step 4: Using a hot glue gun, attach a loop of ribbon to hang from tree. Or you can fill a small basket or vase with the eggs.
Step 5: Enjoy!
