Instructions
Step 1 – Measure out twine the length of mantle or bannister and add an extra 2 feet for knotting the twine and hanging.
Step 2 – Break the plastic eggs in half and use the “bottom” part of the egg to knot the twine The plastic Easter eggs should already come with 4 holes (2 on the top of the egg and 2 on the bottom).
Step 3 – Next, weave the twine into one of the “bottom” holes and out the other end and double knot the twine at the the top of the egg. For the first egg, be sure to leave some slack at the end of your garland for hanging. Close the egg back together.
Step 4 – Add the next egg and separate about 6-8 inches apart and double knot the twine at the top. Repeat process until done.
Step 5 – When you’re finally done, be sure to close up all your eggs back together ! It’ll look like a string of Christmas lights.
Step 6 – After you’re done, you can tie and hang this beautiful garland onto your mantle or bannister.
Step 7 (Optional) – If you’d like to add more to your eggs, you can add stickers for a fun look, gold leaf them for more pizzazz or even use puff paint or pen to write on them for a fun message.
