Painted or painted eggs - one of the main Easter symbols, but around the house chicken eggs do not scatter and what to do, decorate something for the holiday apartment you want. The output will be decorative eggs - Easter hand-made articles that you can make with your own hands. There are a lot of methods and materials for making such crafts, so we will consider only those Easter eggs that you can do with your own hands will not be very difficult.
Option number 1
- In order to make crafts on the Easter theme, we will need a chicken egg, a plaster, a thin satin ribbon of two colors, threads, beads and rhinestones for decoration.
- We make eggs on the top and bottom of the hole and remove the contents through them.
- We empty the empty shell, and fill it with any grain.
- Both holes are sealed with adhesive tape.
- To the top (from the acute side) of the eggs with the help of a patch we attach the ends of the braid (both ribbons).
- Gently wrap the egg with ribbons, slightly pulling them.
- The ends of the ribbons are fixed with the help of thread or decorative pin at the sharp side of the egg.
- Now it remains to make the decoration, for this we fold the ribbon with a corner and fasten the pin with the pin. Next, we continue to bend the tape crosswise, carefully fixing the folds to get an accordion. We make such an accordion of centimeters 15, and fix the second tip of the ribbon with a needle. Then in the same way we make an accordion from the second ribbon.
- Now sew on the spiral prepared ribbons to the top of the egg. The ends of the ribbons are fixed. Sew rhinestones and beads to the top. You can sew a few beads and around the egg, so that the tapes do not leave.
Option number 2
When we talk about handicrafts, we immediately think about toys made of paper, but how to make an Easter egg from such material? It turns out very much possible if you arm yourself with PVA glue, corrugated and plain white paper and a balloon.
- We inflate the ball to the size you want to see the craft, but since we have an egg planned, we should not be too zealous.
- Cut the paper into small squares and prepare the paste from starch or flour if there was no glue at home.
- One piece of paper is placed in the glue (paste) and gently smoothed on the ball. We alternate layers of corrugated and plain paper.
- Leave the ball to dry.
- Blow off and carefully take out the ball from the Easter egg.
- We draw a pencil window on the egg and cut it with a stationery knife.
- It remains only to decorate the craft, for example, on top of the tape, and inside put the grass (of thin strips of paper) and sweets or toy chicken.
Option number 3
If you are fond of making unusual pieces of soap, then you can make Easter happy with familiar Easter eggs from soap. It takes a soap base - 125 grams, shape, stand (you can take a glass), spray with alcohol, dyes and flavors.
- We melt the base, add flavorings and colorants to it.
- If there is a form, then fill it with a base, if not, then it will have to be made beforehand. To do this, you need a package of chocolate eggs and a knife. We cut a hole in the top part of the plastic egg with a knife, so that it is convenient to pour liquid through it. After we put the form on the glass and fill it with a base.
- To remove the bubbles, you need to drizzle into the hole with alcohol from the atomizer. We give soap 5 minutes to settle, add more base to the top and again sprinkle with alcohol. After 5 minutes, when the egg is slightly cool, we send the soap into the freezer.
- The cooled egg is taken from the refrigerator and taken out of the mold. The top, if it turned out not even, cut with a knife.
- We decorate the Easter piece of soap with a ribbon, tying a bow.
Option number 4
Well, it's easiest to make Easter eggs with your own hands, using ready-made polystyrene blanks and decorating them with paillettes, beads and ribbons.
We take a tailor pin-stud and put on it a bead and paillette. We prepare several at once.
We wrap around a foam plastic egg a piece of ribbon and fix it with prepared pins.
