Decorated Styrofoam Eggs Plant Sticks

Your green plants will attain new color in spring with this project.

 

 

Easter Egg Plant Stick

For this project you will need:

- styrofoam Easter eggs in large size
- paper napkins with Easter motifs (the motifs should not be too large)
- paper napkin applique glue
- green wooden rod about 4 mm in diameter
- green acrylic paint for the stick
- ribbon and grass for embellishing
- acrylic paint to match background of napkin areas
- sponge to apply paint

Instructions:

1. First of all, tear the motifs out with a small border. Tearing them instead of cutting them gives the edges a much smoother look to them. That makes it easier to blend later when sponging paint on the in-between areas.
2. Adhere the napkins all around the egg in a pleasing manner. Do not worry about the spaces in between. These will be sponged with color afterwards.

3. Now about the white spaces in between...

4. Apply a light bit of paint to the sponge and now dab paint in the white areas. Try to blend in the paint in a way that it looks like it is part of the napkin background. You can also paint a little over the same colored area of the napkin to give the whole background a more blended look.
5. Once the paint has dried, paint a long wooden rod green. When dry, insert it to the bottom of the egg. Tie on a ribbon bow and grass to decorate.

The beauty of this craft is that you do not even need to know how to paint to achieve such lovely designs. Just select paper napkins with Easter motifs and use them to decorate your eggs as you please.
