Framed Happy Easter Decoration

Easter· Spring

Easter colors are my favorite – I can’t get enough brightly colored eggs!

Today’s Easter decoration was a simple one, incorporating both bright colors and eggs. A perfect twist on the traditional wreath.

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-UnleashedSupplies needed to make your own Happy Easter decoration: supply-list

  • Big Value Pack 1.5″ Wooden Eggs
  • 8×10 Wide Black Wooden Frame
  • Small Screw Eye Hooks
  • Foamies Silver Glitter Alphabet Stickers
  • Yellow Ribbon
  • Acrylic Craft Paint in
    • Pink
    • Purple
    • Blue
    • Green
    • White
  • Sand-It Gadget

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-Unleashed-11The first thing I did was remove the glass and backing from my 8×10 frame, and coat the black frame with white acrylic paint. When the paint is dry, go over the surface of the frame with a Sand-It Gadget to remove part of the white paint. This gives the frame a custom distressed look.

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-Unleashed-4Using an awl, or other sharp tool, create a small hole in the top of the wooden eggs. This will get the screw eye hook a place to sit, and give it a head start.

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-Unleashed-2Insert the screw hook, and twist until the loop is flush with the top of the eggs. I used pliers for this step.

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-Unleashed-3Using a piece of string, or yarn, string all of the eggs pulling the string tight. Attach the strung eggs between two stable objects. I used a couple of photo easels, weighted with hand weights. This will make it so much easier to paint your eggs. You can reach the entire egg, and it will dry without rubbing against another surface.

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-Unleashed-5Paint the eggs using your choice of craft paint. You will need 11 painted eggs for this Easter decoration.

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-Unleashed-6Allow the eggs to fully dry. Remove them from the string, and then string the eggs onto yellow ribbon.

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-Unleashed-7Decide how you would like your strung eggs to hang in your frame, and then add screw eye hooks to the frame to hold the ribbon in place.

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-Unleashed-9Tie the ribbon into a tight knot, and then go over the knot, with a loose knot- this looks prettier. 🙂

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-Unleashed-12Trim the ribbon ends, and space the eggs out on the ribbon.

Add sticker letters to the eggs to spell out “Happy Easter.”

My alphabet did not have enough “P’s,” so I trimmed down an “R.”

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-Unleashed-13I also used hot glue to secure the stickers. I knew I was going to hang this Easter decoration on my front door, and I like everything to be really secure. Utah spring is harsh!

Measure the center of the top of your frame, and add a screw eye hook for ribbon to hang your frame.

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-Unleashed-14Tie your ribbon through the hook, and your Easter decoration is ready to hang!

DIY-framed-Easter-decoration-Crafts-Unleashed-1“Egg”actly what I wanted for my door!
