Hi Everyone!
On 1 of my recent visits to a thrift store, the colorful displays on the Spring/Easter aisles totally got me in.
I went looking for something cute to utilisation during Easter. There were lots of eggs, baskets, books, exactly for approximately argue what actually spoke to me were a dyad of bunny figures, a laid of Easter cookie cutters in addition to the 2 sets of wooden ornaments y'all come across inward the film below.
They stayed on overstep of my dining room tabular array for well-nigh a calendar week until I in conclusion decided on using them the "normal" way, on an Easter tree ;)
Well, an Easter tree where existent egg shells are the homes to all of the tiny rabbits in addition to birds in addition to lilliputian penguins that came inward my 2 dollar sets, in addition to that's well-nigh the amount toll for this projection if y'all plough over to accept all of the other materials every bit I did.
☐ Egg shells
☐ Acrylic Paints
☐ Cardboard paper(two missive of the alphabet size pieces)
☐ Cardboard subway scheme (from wrapping paper)
☐ Candle holder
☐ Decorative paper
☐ Scissors
☐ Hot gum gun
☐ Sprinkles, moss, or colored rice to utilisation every bit a filler ;)
I'd been collecting the egg shells for quite a chip now. My boy happens to dearest a Winter soup where the eggs accept to last sprinkled from those tiny holes. So, they were dry out in addition to railroad train to use. I also used approximately one-half shells.
Enlarge the holes on the egg shells for the pocket-size figures to tally in. Color the within in addition to the exterior a dissimilar color. White egg shells would last better. I had to apply 3 coats of acrylic pigment on the outside.
For the stand, y'all tin shipping away honour the 3 silhouettes HERE in addition to HERE. Trace them onto the cardboard in addition to the decorative paper, cutting them out in addition to gum them together. Two pieces of the wrapping newspaper subway scheme were cutting at 2¼" in addition to 1 at ¾", concealment those alongside pieces of decorative newspaper too.
Long pieces of the decorative paper, exclusively ¼" width, were also cutting in addition to hot glued to the border of each platform, every bit y'all tin shipping away see, they brand a difference. Use hot gum to position together the whole stand.
Add the shells, over again using hot glue.
Use approximately filler, sprinkles or moss, I didn't accept whatsoever of those at hand, that's why I used light-green colored rice to convey the pocket-size figures popping out the shells.
Even though is non required, y'all tin shipping away start creating your ain even out piece setting them inward place... Mr. Rabbit is at work... Managing Colorful Egg Chocolate Co. is non an slow task... Chirpie his faithful assistant is having a hard day!
Pinklet, command character assistant, believes the chocolate carrot stems are a chip also long :/
