Every year about this time I start flipping through the latest craft magazines and without fail there is always an Easter Egg wreath of some sort. There are the fancy monochromatic/crackle paint eggs, the simple ones with one row of eggs, and, my personal favorite, the crazy whimsical, child-like wreaths that look like an Easter basket of sparkle formed a perfect little circle.
Supplies Needed:
- Straw or foam wreath
- 3 Big ‘ol bags of plastic eggs
- Hot glue gun & glue
- Easter basket grass (preferably the spark-uh-ly/iridescent kind )
This is a simple, fun little project you can do with your kids.
Just glue your eggs onto the wreath, alternating colors. Then use a pencil to push the grass into the gaps.
It was super easy to put together and my little one was able to participate by handing me eggs and helping with the Easter grass. She’s very proud of her “most beautiful Easter wreath ever, it’s so spark-uh-ly!”
We originally planned on adding a big bow to the wreath, but couldn’t get it to look right.
I instantly regretted not having purchased one of those bowdabra things on QVC ten years ago. I can’t believe I remembered that. I might as well go buy a bedazzler in anticipation of future craft projects requiring 80s embellishment.
And on that note I’m out, later dudes 
About Lindsey
I love this!! ! am so going to do this for our Easter Wreath! Thanks so much for the great tutorial!
This is soooo cute!!! I have a bowdabra, it is amazing!!! If you have a Michael’s store close to you, that is where I bought mine
Oh I LOVE it!! That is too cool!
Did this with the kids
So adorable! Awesome idea 
That is SO DARN CUTE!!!
And I picked up a Bowdabra (yeah..I really did!) last year at WalMart (had to create one too many raffle baskets for yet another ‘project’)… So — you didn’t miss out — you can still have one for less than $10!
Awesome! I’m definitely going to have to pick one of those bad boys up on my next trip!
I just finished making my wreath and it turned out great. Thanks for the tutorial!
You are more than welcome! I’m so glad you found it useful!
adorable! I have one somewhat like this on my blog. I think yours is cuter
You have more eggs which I like.

I love the wreath. I am definitely going to try this.
PS- I remember the bowdabra and it did not work…yes, I have used it.
A Bowdabra Bow would be a perfect addition to an already adorable wreath! Bowdabra Products are available at most craft stores and online craft stores. I am a designer for Bowdabra and invite you to check out our blog it might help inspire your next bow-making project! Cheers! http://bowdabrablog.com
How neat, I will definitely check out the link. Thank you, Sarah!
Love this idea! We’re going to have to try it. Thanks for sharing!!
I am going today to make that wreath!! I LOVE it!! I am in the process of making the balloon wreath for my daughter’s 1st birthday in June. I am showing EVERYONE- I am so proud of it and it’s SO easy!!! Thanks for the wonderful ideas!!!
love it!! a fellow MOPS mom told me about this. I am planning to make one this week! Thank you!
Hi! I am new to your blog and LOVE it! Thanks for the inspiration- I just made this wreath and it is so adorable! I have gotten tons of compliments on it (I sent them your way:) ).
Thank you guys! Aren’t they fun? I’ll probably get carried away and start making wreaths with themed items hot glued to them for everything now
Hola Lindsay acabo de encontrar tu pagina y me ha encantado eres muy creativa y eso se ve reflejado en cada uno de los posts, conoces mi pais??Peru, he visto que tienes publicidad de el en tu pagina , ojala que si, es un bello sitio …muchos saludos nos comunicamos estare atenta a las novedades
Girl that wreath is soo awesome! Im going to have to make one of those next year:)
I cannot wait to make this! Going tomorrow to pick up everything I need! I may even do one for my mom. Thanks!
How did you hang the wreath? Is your wreath hanger big enough to fit around it?
Yep, just a bigger wreath hanger
Awesome! I’ll go get a bigger one!
I love this!! I just started mine today! Also, many local flowershops will make you a bow with their ribbon for a low cost and if you bring in your own ribbon they may not charge at all!! My Grandma owns a flower shop and she does this!
O.M.G.!!!! I absolutely LOVE this Easter wreath! When I laid eyes on this beautiful creation I immediately ran to Michaels to purchase the materials! I can not wait to make my wreath for my door!
I’ve looked for something bright and simple to make, that can liven up the door to my mothers nursing home room. This will certainly do the trick, for the Spring /Easter season. Thanks so much. As for hanging it, No doubt you can use a 36 inch long ribbon, stick it to the back with both stick pins and hot glue, then making a simple shoe-lace bow, hang it on nail or sp. hanger. I wouldn’t use a regular wreath hanger as the wreath would be too thick to get around.
Great idea!! Thanks for sharing!! You’re very talented.
All the Easter gear is 75% off now at most stores. I’m going to make my wreath now so that I’m ready for next Easter!
I just found this today and it is the cutest thing ever. I’m going to try to tackle this before Easter this year and was wondering what size wreath you used and about how many eggs are in the bag, or may be an easier question where did you get the eggs? Thanks so much for the photos and tutorial. I absolutely love it…
Adorable! I love that you used plastic easter eggs and easter basket filler. My daughter LOVES this wreath. I featured your wreath on my blog this week in my Weekly Inspiration post. I’d love for you to stop by and take a peek:

Just made 3 of different sizes- found it easier to glue the glitter straw on the wreath first than glue the eggs onto the straw- made one for myself and my daughters- thanks for the idea
