Even the youngest kids can turn an Allen key and the older kids will love following the directions and leading construction.. 5.. Painting.

Follow my blog with BloglovinToday I’m going to show you how to make this easy natural egg garland.It really is a stunner and I think it’s definitely my favorite Easter craft of the year so far!.

The first thing you’ll need to do is.blow out enough eggs.to cover the length that you’ll be making your garland.

For this little one I made to go across my fantel (fake mantel!), I used 16 eggs.. Once you’ve got your eggs all set, you’ll probably need to make the holes on each end a little bigger, just for ease of stringing.

You can easily do this using a push pin.. (Thank you to my daughter for letting me photograph her dirty fingernails while she helped me!).

Next, grab some twine or ribbon and start stringing!the long counter in the laundry room.

and I just love the warmth it brings to this back hall.We trimmed the whole thing out in a few places, but mostly we just needed lots and lots of paint to make the whole thing come together beautifully!.

It’s actually a pretty simple project that has a really big payoff, and it’s really really easy when you compare it to some of.the other built-in projects we’ve done.
