How to decorate a house for Easter with your own hands?

Painted eggs

The traditional and everyone's favorite way to decorate the table is to paint hard-boiled eggs with your own hands. You don't have to be an artist: it's easy to find a huge number of examples on the net where special skills are not required.

You can paint eggs with food dyes, felt-tip pens, a permanent marker, various paints (watercolors, acrylics), hot wax.

Finished works can be placed in a basket, on a tray or in a wide transparent vase, supplemented with Easter cake, flowers and other decor.

Candlesticks

An original composition for the table can be made from three glasses. Place some clean twigs, straw, or paper gift filler under an upside-down glass, and complete the nest with a decorative or quail egg.

Place a tea light on a support. Such candlesticks will be a wonderful decoration and add a touch of magic to your evening meal.

Decoration on a stick

Since eggs are an invariable attribute for celebrating Easter, it can be embodied in a wide variety of forms. An egg made of felt, decorated with beads, ribbons and embroidery will be a wonderful souvenir for guests.

Secure the items on sticks - thin bamboo skewers can be used. Decorate the cake or houseplants in pots with the finished craft.

Instead of felt, you can use shells or artificial foam testicles.

Branches with shells

To get an empty blank, carefully poke two holes in the top and bottom of the egg and blow through it. Then rinse the empty shells, dry and decorate as you like.

Bring branches from the street, peel and put in a vase. If the branches are alive, keep them in a container of water so that leaves appear on them. Hang the shell with ribbons.

Windows are also decorated with empty shells: they are tied to a curtain cornice with long ribbons. Suitable for families without small children and pets.

Wreaths

A decorative wreath on a door or wall can be made not only from branches, but also from unnecessary embroidery hoops and even wire hangers for clothes. Usually, the base is decorated for Easter with blanks in the form of eggs, artificial flowers and berries, bows, wooden birdhouses.

The wreath can be made once and carefully packed in a box after the holiday, and next year it can be hung on the door again to create a festive mood.

Garland

Even the smallest family members will like this idea. Garlands are easy to make with your own hands from colored paper. Cut 4 egg-shaped blanks, bend each in half and glue together. Combine the finished parts with fishing line or strong thread.

Instead of paper, you can use felt: bright testicles, passed through a ribbon, will decorate a chest of drawers, a windowsill or a wall.

Arrangement in the tray

Recently, decorations in cardboard egg trays have become very popular: they harmoniously combine grace and simplicity. Broken shells are poured with paraffin, making candles out of them, supplemented with flowers, succulents, stabilized moss and decorative figurines. The tray is placed on a table or windowsill.

Easter is a wonderful family holiday that can be made even more beautiful and interesting. Liven up your home with simple decorative details to spend your day in a great mood.
