Mini Baker’s Twine Easter Eggs

Easter· Spring· Yarn Crafts

This year, spring is making an early appearance where I live and I’m excited to start pulling out the Easter decor. Since Easter is only a little over a month away, I thought I would get started on Easter crafts by making a few baker’s twine eggs. These small wooden eggs covered in baker’s twine are great for Easter decor – especially if you make enough to fill vases or apothecary jars!

s Twine Easter Egg Craft - Crafts UnleashedThis craft was inspired by the baker’s twine pumpkins Angie shared last fall. Baker’s twine is quite popular for gift wrapping but it can be used for some much more, especially in home decor.

Easter eggsFor this project, I busted out my favorite baker’s twine colors and found a color combo I liked to make a nest with.

Supplies needed to make your own baker’s twine Easter egg craft:

  • Baker’s Twine
  • Small Wood Eggs
  • Mod Podge
  • Bird Nest and Moss (optional)

bakers twine eggsTo make the eggs, I began by applying a small amount of Mod Podge to the bottom of the egg and allowed it to dry for a few minutes (this helped keep the twine in place before I began wrapping the eggs).

eggs 1I then wrapped the twine around the egg, making sure to press the twine down along the way to avoid gaps. Once I finished wrapping the egg, I used a small amount of Mod Podge to glue the end of the twine down.

eggs 2I  started out by making three but hope to make enough to fill an apothecary jar by the end of the week.

    I figured out the egg part, but wanted to use some twine I had on hand. Could you tell me about how much twine was used for an egg. I may not have enough and may need to purchase more. Thanks!

    So cute & creative. Have seen several wonderful baker’s twine creations. You indicate you used ModPodge for start of twine at bottom and to hold the end of the twine down so does that mean you did not use ModPodge throughout as you wrapped and only in the 2 areas? You can comment back here & I’ll ck or email me and sub the symbols for the words in parens:

      Hi Melissa! I used Mod Podge throughout the entire process, I just allow it to set in the beginning to hold it in place. To clarify I added a small amount of Mod Podge on the bottom, attached the “starting piece” of twine then let it dry for a few minutes. I learned that if I began wrapping right away the twine would move out of place and make it uneven. After the initial twine was in place I applied the mod podge a little at a time then wrapped and repeated until I reached the top. A dot of mod podge sealed the end of the twine in place. Sorry to confuse you, I hope this helps! 🙂
