This is how the colorful Easter bouquet succeeds
You can currently find tulips or other early bloomers in flower shops or in most grocery stores. You can also order colorful bouquets online and have them delivered.
The special feature: You can then decorate your Easter bouquet beautifully.
Tip: You can tie the vase with crepe or fine gift ribbon. Self-painted Easter eggs make your Easter bouquet individual!
Large decorative glass for Easter
If you can’t fill your large glass vase with flowers at the moment, you can still redecorate it for spring.
And so it goes:
Cover the ground with small branches or moss. If you broke some Easter eggs while painting them, use them now.
☞ Carefully place the eggshells on the branches. Ideally, the eggs should still form a kind of shell. You then use this as a container for colorful crepe or small flowers.
The advantage:
You can place the vase anywhere and it takes up less space than a large decorative plate.
How to decorate Easter eggs
It’s not just a fun activity for children. Self-designed Easter eggs can look really professional!
The classic Easter eggs are painted with liquid paint in the typical patterns with dots or stripes. Try something different!
▸ Easter eggs with sugar sprinkles
Brush hard-boiled eggs all over with craft glue. Place colored sugar sprinkles in a small bowl and roll the eggs in until completely coated.
▸ The Napkin-Owner
White napkins with a beautiful pattern are best suited. Cut out different shapes and separate the layers of the napkin.
The thin layer with the pattern cut out is then glued to the egg with clear craft glue.
☞ Tip: The adhesive can be optimally spread with the brush.
▸ The special Easter egg
Drill a slightly larger hole in the egg to be decorated.
Write down wishes and kind words on a small piece of paper. You can then roll this note and carefully push it through the small hole in the egg.
Your lucky egg is ready!
What do I do with children?
Children like to do handicrafts with full physical effort. They can use their little fingers as brushes or stencils, or experiment with ink and blow pens.
Easter is the perfect celebration. Whether it’s an Easter bunny, eggs or wreaths of flowers: the more colorful the decoration, the more beautiful it is.
Tip: Spread out a generous amount of newspaper and dress your children in old T-shirts.
And so it goes:
☞ Download a rabbit template from the internet. Now your kids can let off steam with whatever you provide. Pearls, feathers, ink or glitter are a good place to start!
☞ A nice alternative are small children’s hands as a template replacement. Outline the spread fingers. The drawn hand can now be painted yellow and decorated as a little chick.
Even if crafting with children is more complex: the anticipation of Easter will be huge.
