cute Easter deco idea to make

16 years ago

This is on the BHG site, 3-D Easter box decoration idea. I think this is really cute (and would work for any Holiday for that matter).

Start with small cardboard boxes and cover the inside with colored paper. Line the bottom of the box with moss. Create miniature scenes with tiny baskets and toy chicks or with images cut from vintage Easter postcards. Give your display a three-dimensional effect by attaching cut-out images to a small branch (center) or by scattering additional elements, such as a piece of eggshell and individual paper blossoms, around the image (bottom).

hugs, Karen

Those are really cute, Karen! At first I thot they were one of those fiddly crafts that I don't do much anymore as I'm a major klutz but on second look I think it could be pretty easy and fast. I'm thinking I could just glue feather birds on a branch for that center one. Thanks for the idea - like I really need another project! ;-D

Karen, I hope you don't mind me adding to your post. I just thought it might be a good idea to keep all the random ideas in one place.

I got an advertisement email from this company and thought of all you gals who have vintage postcards. This idea could be used for a number of holidays or themes.

These are cute and look like some fun crafting. I need to get busy with cleaning and laundry before I think I can go craft.haha
