How to do it

10 Do not use beads on the first and last 5 cm. Gather the ends and twist the pipe cleaner around 5 cm inwards.

11 Now twist the ends together to make a small hanging eyelet. Shape the hanging decoration into an egg shape.

12 Place a dab of sticky base on the bottom of the chicken and attach it to the bottom of the pipe cleaner hanger.

16 Pull a pipe cleaner through the hole in the cardboard flower and add a fuse bead on each side of the cardboard flower to hold the disc in place. Bend the top end twice to prevent the bead from falling off.

23 If the flower has several layers, attach them together with a dab of sticky base in the middle of the bottom layer.

27 Insert the bent end of the flower stamens through the hole. If necessary, use scissors to push it through.

43 Make peg board eggs. If desired, you can place an image under the pegboard or copy the beads in the picture. Find more designs in the PDF file.

47 Cut random shapes out of cardboard or use from cutouts – this is fun for the littlest ones to do. An adult uses pointed scissors to pierce a hole in the middle of the cardboard.

51 Cut different flower shapes out of egg trays, preferably with several layers per flower. Paint the parts with craft paint.

53 Double a ribbon and pull it through the hole. Tie a knot so that the ribbon does not slip out again through the hole.

54 Place a little glue on the base to hold both the ribbon and the inner part of the flower in place.

65 Cut 30 cm of silk ribbon, double it and tie together with a knot. In the middle of the ribbon, opposite the knot, glue the ribbon with sticky base onto the top of the egg tray figure.
