Use these quick and easy tips to create a decorative Easter wreath with your kids.
Easter Wreath Tips for using a recycled grapevine wreath
- Buy several packages of plastic colored Easter eggs (usually available at the Dollar Store or a store like Target or Wal-Mart). Hot glue gun the eggs all around the wreath for a colorful decoration.
- Do the same as above using plastic flowers. You can also string ribbon throughout the vines for a fancier look.
An Easter Wreath Project for Kids
- Take an old wire hanger and stretch the bottom until the entire thing is round.
- Use 14-16 cardboard toilet paper rolls and cut a slit halfway through each one in the middle.
- Have the kids paint each of the paper rolls (pastel colors work well for this). Attach the paper rolls to the wire hanger through the slits.
- Create and cut out paper plain paper Easter egg designs (you may be able to find a good template to print out online)
- Have the kids use crayons, paint or markers to color and decorate the paper eggs.
- When you have enough eggs to go around your wreath, glue them on top of the toilet paper rolls, allowing them each to overlap slightly.
- Make a ribbon bow and tie it to the top of the hanger so it does not show.
Enjoy!
