Easter Craft ~ how to make an Easter egg box
We love crafts in our house and Easter always brings out our creativity!
So when our 7 year old’s school ran a competition for the best decorated Easter egg, you can imagine the making and creating that went on…
…and here’s how she made it. (I say ‘she’ because apart from boiling the eggs, she pretty much did it all by herself!)
You will need:
A standard empty box
Hard-boiled eggs (it depends how many you’d like to decorate!)
Glue ~ pritt-stick type glue is better than gloopy glue because of handling the egg while decorating it… unless you want to look like a decorated easter egg yourself!
Felt-tips and/or paint ~ depending on whether you like really messy or not!
Paper for drawing pictures to cut out and stick on the eggs
Crafty things ~ anything crafty that you’ve got knocking around
~
Get a standard egg box
Then get the glue
And some green ‘grass’ for paper
Stick the ‘grass’ anywhere on the outside of the box (the corners work well)
Pour some glue inside the egg box and stick some yellow ‘nest’ paper inside
And there’s your Easter egg box! (our daughter won a prize for hers!)

It’s a lot of fun to make. Well, she did it, but it was fun to watch!
This is so great! Must show it to LP, I’m sure he’d love to give it a go. 🙂

It’s one of the less messy ones Morgan – at least it was for us! 🙂
