EASIEST EASTER EGG WREATH
Do you love those Easter Egg Wreaths?
I do and I am sharing how to make the easiest Easter Egg Wreath ever.
Yes, I am excited to finally have an Easter Egg Wreath. I’ve always admired them but I can’t even begin to tell you the last time I bought a ready made wreath.
Between the cost and the amount of faux flowers they typically have – I’ve never gotten one.
Michael’s had these eggs, the colors appealed to me and they already had flecks on them and I love that look.
They were on sale and so I scooped up 3 bags. They were $3.49 for 14 eggs.
STEPS TO CREATE THE EGG WREATH
I purchased a pressboard ring and used that as my base. I also found that at Michael’s.
After I started, I realized that I could have easily cut up a box and used corrugated cardboard instead.
The eggs were so light I didn’t need the strength of the pressboard ring. I wasn’t going to return the ring, but made a mental note to use a cardboard box for the next one.
Now it was time to begin gluing the eggs on.
I started with one and glued them down, 21 eggs fits perfectly.
After gluing on the eggs, I took my Spanish moss and began tucking it in between the eggs and attached with more hot glue.
Next I glued more moss on the inside and outside edge to cover any visible wreath frame.
I couldn’t find the staple gun, so after cutting the twine, I hot glued that onto the back and hung!
Cutting cardboard for the wreath frame.
AFTER CUTTING THE CIRCLES, I CUT OUT THE CENTER

ADDING THE MOSS BETWEEN THE EGGS
The muted colors of these eggs next to the the Spanish Moss is so pretty. The good news is it weighs barely anything.
After that I made another to put in the dining area by my table, and used the extra eggs to place on top of the napkins.

Hello, is the wood ring you used for the wreath 12" across? I saw it in Michaels. Thanks I'm making 2 wreaths tomorrow, giving one as a gift!

Yes! But a cardboard box worked perfect too

Have a question about this project?
I'd like to make this for my daughter and son-in-law. Can you please share the dimensions (inside and outside) of the cardboard circle that you cut out? Thanks.
