Simple Spring Decorating Ideas
Today, I'd like to show you some of my simple spring decorating ideas. This is a snippet from my blog post 'Simple spring decorating ideas', please visit the blog if you'd like to read the full post and get the material sources.
Here's what you'll need to make an Easter egg garland (visit the blog for the sources):
- Large Eggs (Real eggs blown out or crafting eggs)
- Wooden heart shapes
- 1 piece of willow branch or similar (approx. 1cm/10mm thick)
- Dried birch/weeping willow twigs or similar
- Floral wire
- String for hanging
First cut a piece of willow branch to whichever size you want your Easter garland to be. I took mine from the willow tree in our garden which has just had its late winter pruning.
Collect a large bunch of twigs and secure them to one end of the willow branch with floral wire.
Twist the twigs around the willow branch until you get to the end and then tie them to the willow branch at that end. You can add some more if it looks a bit bare.
Use the string to make a hanger and hang your willow branch wherever it takes your fancy. I'm hanging mine in the lounge, over my DIY vintage mirror.
Hang the Easter eggs and hearts along the length of the willow branch.
Your Easter egg hanging garland is finished! See, I told you it was easy - don't you just love easy Easter crafts?
You can see this and more simple spring decorating ideas in the original blog post.
