First we need to inflate a regular balloon. Pour the PVA glue into the container and pour the pasta into it with rings. Thoroughly mix them in the glue base. At the next stage, we draw an egg on the ball and glue pasta around it.


When the glue is completely dry, then carefully burst the balloon and remove it from the workpiece.


Remove adhesive from holes where required.


We cover the craft with spray paint. Choose the color you like best.


Paint pasta shells with nail polish.


Leave to dry, and then fasten to the base with glue.

Do-it-yourself egg from threads and glue

The decorative egg will original gift and great Easter decoration. There are several ways to make such a souvenir. Consider three interesting options.

In the first case, we need glue, threads, a balloon. Let's start by inflating the balloon required size. Lubricate the surface with greasy glue, and then with PVA glue. Now we wind the threads on the ball, lubricate each layer with an adhesive base.


When we wind the required number of threads, we leave the workpiece to dry, after that we pierce the ball with a needle and remove it. If desired, the surface can be painted in any color, and decorated with buttons or beads.


If you fasten the thread at the top, then the craft can be hung indoors or on an Easter tree.

For the next blank, we need a foam base. We cut out an egg-shaped figure, cover it with plastic wrap and insert several rows of needles to make a beautiful pattern.


Let's prepare one part first. To do this, we wind the threads on the needles only on one side, lubricate them with glue and leave to dry. In the meantime, let's prepare the second part in a similar way. After that, glue both parts. If necessary, decorate as you wish.

Now we will make a decorative egg from multi-colored knitting threads. To do this, we will prepare the basis: kinder surprise or a devastated chicken egg. Lubricate the surface with glue and start winding the threads, as shown in the image below.


Such crafts are sure to please close people and friends. They will definitely ask you to tell about the secret of making such a souvenir.

Salt dough crafts

Before Easter Sunday, prepare holiday items with your child. As a basis, we will use salty dough. Below we will consider the option of making an egg, but by this analogy you can make various figures.

We need to prepare a cool dough. To do this, mix salt water with flour, in a ratio of 1: 2, then pour sunflower oil and mix thoroughly, adding wheat flour if necessary.


Now we roll out the dough with a layer no more than 1 cm thick. Using a mold, cut out the eggs and make a hole in the upper part. When the workpiece dries, we decorate it at our discretion with the help of paint of different colors.


We thread a thread or ribbon into the hole and hang the craft. Thus, you can make crafts of any shape.

Easter Beaded Crafts for Beginners

Beads are a versatile material from which many ideas can be realized. But what if you have no experience in making crafts in this way? In fact, there is nothing wrong with this, believe me, you will succeed. To acquire the necessary skills, watch the master class in the video clip below.

If you carefully looked at the instructions, then you should succeed. When you master this technology, you can begin to manufacture more complex structures.

Souvenirs from foamiran

This decorative material intended for needlework. It can be used to make colorful and original crafts for any holiday and occasion. We will make an Easter egg that will be a real work of art.


We will prepare the base from foam. The height of the workpiece is 7.5 cm.


Now we cover the artificial egg with a piece of foamiran. To do this, the material must be heated. We will use an ordinary hair dryer, here you will need an assistant. Try to stretch the material so that there are no wrinkles.


In order for foamiran to be fixed in this position, you need to wait until it cools down. Then, in the middle of the workpiece, we draw a line and cut the material along it.


In this way, we will prepare two identical parts and stick them on the foam base.


You need to cut a leaf out of green foamiran, twist it a little in your hands to give it a natural look. We need to make 25 of these parts.


Glue the leaves at the junction of the blue material.


Now we need to make small flowers.


To do this, we need small pieces of foamiran and a figured hole punch. We make a hole in the blanks, insert the stamens and heat the product to shape it.


Glue the prepared flowers on the leaves.


To make a cross on a craft, we need rhinestones.


For the stand, cut out a small circle of foam, glue it with foamiran and insert it into a small plastic box.


It remains only to fix the egg to the stand with a toothpick.

Try to make such a souvenir, after which, you can proceed to more complex tasks.

As you could already understand, Easter crafts can be made with your own hands from almost any materials at hand. Be sure to use some option if you have time before the holiday.

Bright Easter - the resurrection of Christ, the time of sweet Easter cakes and colored eggs. It is believed that a donated Easter egg has the power of a talisman and protects its owners from evil deeds and thoughts, both their own and those of others. The Easter egg-amulet was often made of wood. Those who were richer could afford malachite, turquoise or jasper. Well, the kings glorified Faberge eggs by ordering these precious masterpieces of jewelry art for themselves and their family members.

Few people dare to take a swing at the work of the great master, there are enough craftsmen of needlework, but it’s painfully expensive. Therefore, we take the most available materials and we create a no less exclusive gift - eggs for Easter with our own hands.

Here are master classes - how to make eggs for Easter with your own hands with step-by-step photographs using a variety of techniques. Follow our instructions to create your own unique gifts and unique Easter souvenirs.

How to make eggs for Easter

What to give for Easter? Of course, the egg! But not simple, but magical red gold.

We will need:

  • Newspaper or magazine
  • A couple of relevant pictures
  • Threads
  • PVA glue
  • Napkins or soft paper towel
  • Lentils
  • Millet
  • Gouache red
  • Gold color paint
  • Sequins, rhinestones, beads
  • Glue type "Monolith"

Instruments:

  • Tassels
  • Pencil
  • Marker in base color
  • Scissors
  • skewer

Let's get started:
1. We crumple a newspaper sheet and give it the shape of an egg. We fix the workpiece with threads.

2. We coat the PVA blank and glue it with pieces of a magazine page. Glue pictures. Let the paper blank dry.

3. We tear the napkin and repeat the process of forming a paper crust. Torn edges are less noticeable, smooth them with a brush, abundantly moistened with glue. Dry again.

4. On a dry blank, we make a sketch of the ornament, first with a pencil, then we circle it with a felt-tip pen.

5. We “spin” paper ropes from a napkin cut into strips. It is not scary if the paper breaks during the twisting of the flagella, our ornament does not contain long curls and waves around the entire circumference.

6. We glue the workpiece with cereals and prepared flagella. An indispensable assistant the tassel here is the skewer. We do not regret PVA glue, the cereals should be very thickly smeared, the excess will be absorbed into the paper itself. And again we send the product to dry.

7. We paint the egg for Easter in the main tone, we have it one of the shades of red, the color symbolizing health and wealth. We work with a brush, thoroughly painting over under each grain and curl. Now the expediency of using a red felt-tip pen is fully justified, there are no white slits.

Although in the paper art technique, which translates as paper plastic, it is customary to use dark or even black colors, in my opinion, this is unacceptable for Easter eggs.

8. We varnish the dried gouache and highlight all the bulges with gold. Everyone chooses the intensity of gilding for himself.

9. Glue decorative elements. The main thing here is not to overdo it, otherwise the Easter egg will turn into a Christmas tree toy.

If there is still not enough time for souvenirs made with your own hands, go ahead to the store for chicken eggs.

A consecrated egg dyed with pigments contained, for example, in onion skins, can be safely stored until the next Easter. Checked personal experience, stood on a shelf in a glass, did not deteriorate, it only shrunk and became the size of a quail.

Such a jute design using decorative ribbons looks very beautiful and natural. By wrapping such eggs in gift wrapping, you can safely present to all friends, family and relatives. Such a gift will remain with them for a long time and will decorate the Easter table every year.

To make such a souvenir you will need:

  • Foam base in the shape of an egg.
  • Jute twine.
  • Glue gun.
  • Decor elements (decorative tape).

The end of the twine is attached with hot glue in the middle of the bottom of the workpiece.

You need to wait until the glue is well taken and start gluing the cord in a spiral around this starting point.

It is not necessary to apply glue to the entire surface of the egg. You can use no more than two or three points of glue in one turn.

Thus, you need to wrap the entire Easter egg with twine.

Then you can start decorating. To do this, take three pieces of decorative tape.

Wrap the egg with one and secure with hot glue the junction of the tape and on the opposite side.

Glue the ends of the shorter segment on top of each other - this is the basis for the bow. Put the shortest one on the table inside out and glue its edges inward. It turns out the core.

Wrap this strip around the middle of the bow and glue it on the back.

Attach the bow to the front of the egg.

The decorative Easter egg is ready.

Knitted Easter egg

In this tutorial, I propose to crochet an egg. Such a product will be an excellent souvenir for this bright holiday.

For knitting you will need:

  • Yarn "Children's novelty" blue, pink and green;
  • Hook 1, 75 mm;
  • Scissors;
  • Needle;
  • Sintepon.

You can knit such an egg from any yarn. But it is not advisable to use too thin. Then the finished product will be too small.

Let's start with ch 2. Then we knit 8 sbn in 2 loops from the hook. Then we knit 3 sbn, and in the 4th loop 2 sbn in a row. Then again 3 sbn and again 2 sbn in the loop.

We knit a new row. We will add to it too. We knit 4 sc, 1 in a loop. And in the 5th loop we will knit 2 sc. So we will repeat until the end of this series.

We now have 12 loops on the part. We continue to add. Now we knit 2 sbn 1 in a loop. In the 3rd loop of the row, we immediately perform 2 sc. So we repeat the whole series.

In the next row, first we knit 3 sc, and in the 4th loop we knit 2 sc. And so we knit the whole row.

We have 20 loops. On the next row, we will simply knit 1 sc in each of the loops. That is, at the end of the row there should still be 20 loops.

In the new row, we continue to add. We knit 4 sc, then 2 sc in 1 loop. So we repeat the whole series.

In the next row, you do not need to increase. Just do 1 sc in each loop.

In the new row, we continue to make decreases. Now you need to tie 9 sbn, and knit 10 and 11 loops together. So we knit the whole row.

We finish knitting. Therefore, we knit 1 sc, then 2 loops together. Then again 1 column and 2 loops together. So we knit the whole row.

At this stage, we fill the part with synthetic winterizer.

Then, to close the part, knit 2 loops together the entire row until the hole closes. We do 1 in. Cut the thread and tighten it. Hide the tail inside the egg.

The Easter egg is ready. We knit decorative elements.

For a leaf, take a green thread. We need to dial 7 loops. We knit 1 sl-st, then 1 prs, 1 prss, 2 prs. We knit everything 1 in a separate loop. In the last loop we knit another pssn. Such details need to be connected 3 pieces.

For a flower, take a pink thread. We make a sliding loop. We do 3 ch, then we knit 2 dc. Again 3 ch and 1 sl-st inside the loop.

So repeat 4 more times to form 5 petals.

We tighten the sliding loop.

Sew the leaves to the bottom of the egg.

We sew the flower in the center, slightly going to the middle leaf.

This is such an Easter egg! You can knit many of these products and decorate them in different ways.

Decorate an egg for Easter with a thermal label

Easter is a magical and holy holiday filled with deep meaning and wonderful mood. Today I will teach you how to paint eggs for the holiday in an unusual way, namely, using a label.

We take medium-sized chicken eggs and boil them hard-boiled.

As soon as they are cooked, grab one at a time with a slotted spoon.

We take stickers of different colors and patterns, straighten them.

We put stickers on the eggs.

We lower it into boiling water, wait a few seconds (the main thing is that the shell does not crack from the temperature).

Carefully remove from the water, wait for complete cooling.

Eggs decorated with a thermal label for Easter

That's all, our colorfully wrapped eggs are ready to be presented for Easter or placed on the festive table. This way of decorating eggs will be very popular with those who honor traditions, but do not like to mess with onion skins. Even small children can put on labels.

Such stickers can be chosen not only with easter pattern, but also with cartoon characters or beautiful landscapes. Girls can choose from Cinderella stickers, while boys can get an egg decorated with Spiderman-themed stickers.

3. We measure and cut light and bright yellow threads 15 cm long.

4. We tie threads around the cardboard cylinder, alternating colors.

5. Thus, we tie the entire cylinder.

6. Using glue, glue the loop to the base of the light bulb.

7. We put a hat on the light bulb. Then we collect the protruding edges of the threads into a bundle and tie.

The finished souvenir can be hung on a willow branch.

Three easiest ways to decorate eggs for Easter with your own hands

As we all know, one of the attributes of the holiday, in addition to Easter cakes and the greeting “Christ is Risen! He is truly risen!" are Easter eggs. Now I will talk about the three most simple and original ways their decorations.

Method number 1 - Corrugated paper

What do you need for this? Actually, you will need a small amount of corrugated paper in different colors, as well as small strips of satin. You can also take lace or laces in bright colors instead.

Wrap the egg in a small paper square and tie the edges of the paper with ribbon or string.

Then carefully straighten the bow and the edges of the paper.

So our Easter souvenir is ready.

If you want to make your Easter eggs brighter and more beautiful with your own hands, you can use fabric or lace instead of paper.

Method number 2 - Lace and braid

You can also make your Easter souvenir more elegant and beautiful if you tie it with small pieces of braid or fine lace. In order not to spoil its appearance, hide the ends of the ribbons or lace. You can do this with buttons or beads.

Method number 3 - Eyes

Yes Yes! You didn't think so. Glue-based toy eyes can make your souvenir very funny and interesting. To do this, just stick them to the egg and draw some kind of uncomplicated muzzle. The best medium for this type of creativity will be colored pencils and paper.

How to paint Easter eggs

In order for the painted eggs on the table to look the most beautiful on the Easter holiday, they use the easiest and most inexpensive way. It is recommended to paint them the day before the solemn event.

Painting with onion skins

After an hour has passed, add the eggs and add a large pinch of salt, as well as a teaspoon of vinegar. This will help save them from cracking, and the vinegar will give brightness. Cook over low heat for 15 minutes.

Turn off the stove and wait until the water cools down without taking out the eggs. Once the water has cooled, the pot with the contents is placed in the refrigerator and left overnight. Take out in the morning. The eggs will acquire a bright and very rich color and will be the most beautiful on the holiday.

Coloring with coffee

Would need:

  • Eggs;
  • Vinegar and salt;
  • Brewed coffee.

Pour three large spoons of coffee into the bottom of the pot. Put to boil for twenty minutes. Pour vinegar and salt. Then, using a spoon, put the eggs into the pan. Boil up to 20 minutes. Allow to cool in water and put the pan in the refrigerator overnight to infuse. They will get bright Brown color. These recipes can be alternated and the eggs in the basket will be of different colors.
