STEPS IN DOING THIS EASTER WREATH CRAFT
STEP #1: Let child paint the round wreath base pattern with green paint.
STEP #2: Then, let child paint the bunny piece(s) with any color of their choice if the pattern is in a cardboard, skip this process if bunny was printed directly on a colored heavy weight paper. Set aside painted wreath base and other painted pieces to dry for a couple of minutes under the heat of the sun or in front of an electric fan.
STEP #3: Once, the painted pieces are dry, let child glue the paper grasses or leaves all around the round wreath base.
STEP #4: Then it's time to decorate the wreath with flowers and Easter eggs! First, let child glue pieces of flowers together, they may trace the edges of the flowers using coloring markers to make flowers stand out or simply fold petals in half for a 3D effect. Next, let child add a flower centerpiece by gluing some buttons or beads in the middle of each flower using hot glue, put hot glue on the spot and assist the child to glue the beads or buttons on it.
STEP #5: Next, let child work on the Easter eggs. If you use the ready to color Easter egg templates, let the child color and decorate the template using any medium of their choice (crayons, coloring markers, sticker gems or sequins) or skip this process, if the blank Easter egg templates were printed on pattern papers or if you use the printable colored Easter eggs.
STEP #6: Next, let child glue flowers and eggs all around the wreath. They can glue the eggs and flowers alternately or allow the child to do it their own way than what is shown.
STEP #7: Next, let the child add some tiny leaves to the flowers in an alternate shade of green than the base if you have the option of covering your wreath with paper grasses. They can leave the leaves as it is, add some details using coloring markers or simply fold it from the middle for a 3D effect before sticking the leaves behind flowers in the wreath.
STEP #8: Last step is putting the bunny in the wreath, the child may position the bunny anywhere they want. First, let the child glue and complete all the bunny parts together.
STEP #9 Finally, let the child glue the bunny wherever they want on the wreath using hot glue. Add hot glue on the spot and assist the child to glue the bunny on it. You may hang your Easter wreath as a decoration on your front door or anywhere you wish on Easter day.
