SENIOR LADY: FANCY EASTER EGG WREATH!

  I was really into scrapbooking several

 years ago. I even took a scrapbooking

 class one weekend. My friends and some

 family members received mini scrap-

books with photos for gifts. They were 

really happy with these gifts. It took me

 several days to complete one scrapbook.

I was exhausted by the time this project

was completed. This was the end of my

scrapbooking hobby. I donated most of 

scrapbooking supplies to the teacher

of the class.  I did save my packs of

scrapbook paper. I figured that I would

find another use for them.

I was searching online for ideas for my 

Easter projects. I forgo crafts with a lot

of bunnies and chicks. I prefer to focus

on the religious celebration of Easter. 

The Easter egg can represent new life or

 the end of Lent period at some churches.

So I wanted some of my Easter crafts

 to use Easter eggs. My pack of scrap-

booking paper had plenty of  pastel 

floral designs. I decided on an Easter 

egg craft using these papers.

FANCY EASTER EGG WREATH:

NEED:

6x6 Inch Floral Scrapbook Paper,

6 sheets

4 inch white egg template

3 inch white egg template

Optional: 2 Inch Ribbon, Bow

& Piper Cleaner, Hanger

Tools:

Glue Gun & Glue Sticks 

Ruler

Scissors

INSTRUCTIONS:

Cut out templates from white paper. Use them

to cut out 6-4 inch eggs and 6-3 inch eggs. Note:

There was enough space on sheet of scrapbook 

paper to cut out 4 inch  & 3 inch eggs. Arrange

eggs in  round wreath formation. After desired 

design reached, glue eggs together using glue 

gun.

 

Optional: Make bow and hanger for

wreath.

These eggs looked so pretty using the floral design.

Keeping the eggs in round design was challenging.

My wreath was a more oblong design after I got

all the eggs glued together.  I decided to add the

 bow to enhance the look of wreath.

TIPS:

**. Plain pastel colored eggs are traditional Easter

color.  I wanted to be non-traditional & have eggs

 be a pastel print design.

**. Eggs can be cut out all the same size if desired.

I didn't like the other colors in my pack. So I cut 

eggs in two sizes using same color.

**. Any color bow & hanger can be used as long

 as it enhances the color of the eggs.
