Steps to Create Your Easter Egg Wreath
Creating an Easy Plastic Easter Eggs Easter Wreath is not only a fun springtime activity but also a great way to bring the joy of Easter into your home.
Prepare Your Wreath Form:
Choose a wreath form as the base. A square wire wreath form works well for this project.
Paint the Plastic Eggs:
Lay out your plastic Easter eggs on a piece of scrap cardboard. Open them up face down or secure them to a foam block using toothpicks as shown.
Spray using light, even strokes. Allow to dry completely.
Attach the Bunny and Greenery to the Wreath Frame:
Using floral wire and zip ties, begin attaching the bunny and boxwood greenery sprigs to the wreath form.
Start from the outside edge and fill in gaps moving towards the inside wire.
Glue the Eggs:
Using a hot glue gun, begin attaching the eggs to the wreath form. Start from the outside edge and fill in gaps moving towards the inside wire.
I found it easiest to glue from the back of the wreath frame as shown.
Add Decorations:
Embellish your wreath with ribbons, artificial flowers, extra greenery or other Easter-themed decorations. This is a great way to add a personal touch.
I chose to add sweet little vintage cream colored buttons on a bow for each of the larger plastic Easter eggs.
Secure a Hanger:
Attach a piece of wire or ribbon to the back of your wreath for easy hanging.
Tips for a Perfect Easter Wreath
- Color Coordination: Choose a color scheme that complements your home decor or go for a traditional Easter palette of pastels.
- Layering: For a fuller wreath, layer eggs on top of each other in places.
- Symmetry: While asymmetry can be visually interesting, a symmetrical design often works well for a balanced look.
- Be Generous with Glue: Ensure the eggs are securely attached, especially if the wreath will be hung outdoors.

Easter Activites and Ideas
Easter is a perfect time to engage in crafting activities that also serve as home decor. One engaging activity is egg painting – a classic Easter tradition. You can host an egg-painting party, providing hard-boiled eggs or papier-mâché eggs, along with paints, brushes, and other decorative items like stickers or glitter.
These painted eggs can then be displayed in a decorative bowl or used as part of a larger Easter display.
Remember, Easter decorating is all about celebrating the joy and renewal that comes with spring. Whether you choose to create a sophisticated Easter decor or lean towards playful and whimsical designs, the most important part is to have fun and let your creativity shine. Happy Easter decorating!
