Easter wreath decoration made from eggs

Simple upcycling DIY Easter decorations

Homemade decorations give your home a personal touch and conjure up a special flair, especially for festive occasions such as Easter. I love decorating to suit the occasion and the season. I think you can always feel the love you put into it, which then surrounds you with the lovingly designed decorative elements. And what could be nicer than the cozy, warm atmosphere of your own home? Today I would like to introduce you to a creative craft idea: a DIY wreath made from eggshells: as a creative craft idea to pass the time, as a flower vase, as a pretty Easter decoration or as an Easter gift.

You don't need much for this pretty wreath:

• Eggshells (preferably slightly larger than half an egg)

• Hot glue gun or craft glue

• Spring flowers (e.g. tulips, daffodils, daisies)

• Paint marker if necessary

Instructions

1. Preparing the eggshells: Carefully open the eggs at the top pole, rinse the eggshells thoroughly and leave them to dry. Make sure they are clean and free of any eggshell residue. The egg contents are great for baking. Perhaps you would like to try out these Easter recipes with them: the delicious "hot crossed buns" (sweet yeast pastries as a Good Friday tradition from Ireland) or small Easter bunnies made from quark and oil dough (recipe is the same as for the Weckmänner, all you need here is one egg yolk).

2. Attaching the eggshells: Use the hot glue gun or craft glue to stick the eggshell halves together. To make sure your wreath is round, you can arrange them on a round plate around the edge and leave to dry.

3. Decorate with touch-up paint: If you like, you can decorate the eggs with a touch-up pen (or alternatively other egg colors). You can also simply leave the eggs as they are. Either way, your wreath will be beautiful!

4. Arrange the flowers inside: Fill the eggshell halves with water and carefully place small spring flowers in the eggshells. You can choose different types and colors of flowers to give your wreath a cheerful and lively touch.

Your decorative wreath for Easter is ready! Now you can place it as a decorative centerpiece on the Easter table. On a small tray or in an Easter nest, the wreath becomes a beautiful and personalized homemade gift. You can also fill it with small chocolate eggs (instead of water :-)) or arrange them around.

Creative options

• As a special flower vase: The eggshells serve as a unique and charming flower vase that perfectly accentuates your spring flowers.

• Creative Easter gift: This homemade wreath made from eggshells also makes a lovely Easter gift for family and friends.

• Lovely decoration for the Easter nest: You can place the wreath as a decorative element in your Easter nest to make it even more appealing and festive.
