Instructions
Make sure the eggs are clean and dry.
Cut pieces of floral wire to 4" long. Bend one piece of wire and thread through the bottom holes of the plastic egg. Twist the wire to secure in place. Repeat with all the eggs.
Carefully glue the two pieces of the eggs together so that they stay closed.
Mix the paints so that you have white, blue, light blue, green and light green.
Paint each egg with different colors of paint. Set aside and let dry completely.
If using it, attach the garland to the grapevine wreath using floral wire.
Twist the wire tails from the eggs around a pencil to create a hook.
Hook the wire into the branches of the wreath to hold it in place.
If needed, add a bit of hot glue to hold the egg in place.
Repeat with the rest of the eggs alternating colors and sizes as you go around the wreath.
