A 3-layer napkin is folded in a zigzag and then secured in the middle with binding wire. Shape the paper flower with scissors. Then carefully pull apart the individual layers of paper on one side. Normally there are 6 layers in total. The finished roses can then be attached to a gnarled branch.

Surprise eggs are a great gift idea for children and adults. Especially when they are made in your own kitchen. The delicate mint green creates a wonderful spring atmosphere. This is how it works: You need 100 grams of white chocolate, food coloring, Easter egg molds, food brushes, small sweets to fill
Melt the couverture in a water bath or in the microwave. Add a few drops of food coloring and stir well until the color is evenly distributed. Oil the egg mold. Then dip the brush into the chocolate and brush the molds evenly. Turn the mold over so that the excess chocolate drips off onto baking paper. Then put it in the freezer for 2 minutes so that the chocolate hardens faster.
Repeat the process with two or three more layers, otherwise the “eggshell” will be too thin. Carefully remove the chocolate from the molds. Fill with sweets. Carefully glue both halves together with a little chocolate coating and smooth out the seam. Set aside, let it harden and decorate as desired.
Fill the Easter basket with delicious carrots! These are super easy to put together: first fill a cellophane cone with chocolate dragees and seal it with adhesive tape. Cut green leaves out of crepe paper and glue them around the opening of the bag. Then wrap the bag with orange crepe paper from bottom to top. The carrots look particularly impressive when different shades of orange are used.
You can also make the carrots out of cardstock. The best way to do this is to use a stencil. You can also find these online and print them out. Then simply transfer the template to the cardstock and cut it out. Fold the painted lines using a ruler and smooth out all the creases. The carrot is then glued together. Now it's up to you to decorate the Easter carrot and fill it with goodies.
The carrot bags can be decorated with a pendant. Embroidery thread, jute ribbon, etc. are best suited for fastening. Your loved ones will definitely be happy about the loving greetings for Easter.
If you know the recipient's interests well, you can then fill the Easter basket accordingly. Instead of candy, nail polish can be hidden in the surprise egg.
