Easter Egg Wreath
6 Materials
A fun wreath for my front door!
I had seen an Easter Egg Wreath last year and never found the time to get it made. But I did buy the plastic eggs at the end of the season for practically nothing.
These are two packages of eggs, sorry I didn't count them, probably about 48 eggs. I did have two packages of smaller eggs, (not shown) that I use for filling any holes. One will also need a hot glue gun, Styrofoam wreath, twig wreath (optional), Easter grass and a bow.
Start hot gluing the eggs onto the Styrofoam wreath.
There is no rhyme or reason, just change up the positions of the eggs and the colors.
Keep gluing and when you have the wreath covered with the large eggs, start filling in with the smaller eggs.
Smaller eggs randomly filling in holes.
Hot glue the Styrofoam wreath and twig wreath together.
Weigh down for a couple of hours.
I used floral wire in three places to tie the two wreaths together also.
Making a loop hanger withfloral wire.
I had actually bought ribbon in a pastel color, but when I added the bow, it was just to bland. I went through my stash of ribbon and found the black and white striped. Love the contrast between the pastels and the bold black and white. I hot glued the ribbon onto the wreath
Happy Easter!

Beautiful, but, and there is always a but, I have found that hot glue does pop off when exposed to sunlight's heat. I use gorilla glue instead. no more popping off.

Very cute! I'd like to make one to put on my barn, so I might add some little yellow chicks!

I think that sounds awesome. I wish I had a barn. We actually had one the first place we lived after getting married, it had an outhouse attached to the side.
