Paint the Styrofoam eggs
If you are looking for ideas for an original table decoration for Easter, you might be able to create such an Easter egg flower arrangement. For this great decoration idea you will need Styrofoam eggs in different sizes, wooden sticks or shish kebab skewers, craft paint in green, yellow and blue, gift ribbons as well as a Styrofoam ball and a bucket or vase in which the ball fits. Cut the ball in half and color it green.
You will use these instead of floral sponges for your “bouquet”. Now put the Styrofoam eggs on the skewers and color them in the desired color. Once the paint is dry, insert the skewers into the Styrofoam. Complete your Easter egg arrangement with pretty fresh or artificial flowers, bows and butterflies. Placed next to a decorative Easter bunny figure, your arrangement is an ideal centerpiece.

Whether plain, dotted, floral or striped, the felted Easter eggs can be given as a gift, hung up or simply placed anywhere in the home.
If you want to make crafts with colorful felting wool, you will also need a foam felting base and a felting needle. Place an egg on the base and place the wool in the desired color on top. Now start felting the egg by piercing the wool with the felting needle. Turn the egg over onto the surface and pierce often and close together.
Another great suggestion for colorful Easter crafts are these Easter eggs, which are created using the so-called artichoke technique. With this craft technique, triangles made of ribbons are attached to the egg with pins, slightly overlapping. Although the technique is a little more time-consuming, you'll amaze friends and family with these colorful masterpieces.

Enchantingly beautiful Easter eggs are also created through decoupage. Choose napkins with a beautiful Easter motif and separate the top layer for the first time. Cut out the design. Coat the Easter egg with napkin varnish and carefully place the motif on it. Fix the motif with another layer of varnish, working with the brush from the center outwards.
Simple craft idea for children
If you would like to do Easter crafts with children, the decorative Easter eggs made of Styrofoam would be a good opportunity for the adolescents to let off steam creatively and design the Easter decorations themselves. Let the little fingers either cover them with scraps of paper or paint them to their heart's content.

Put some glue on the Styrofoam egg and carefully place the moss pieces on top. Placed in a small nest, your creation is ideal for giving as a gift.
