The Easiest DIY Easter Egg Wreath

I think I’ve mentioned before that I’m not exactly a craft whiz. However, while on a walk this morning with my youngest daughter, I found inspiration for this Easter Egg Wreath!

One of our neighbors had a festive Easter wreath on their front door. I hang wreaths for every occasion: Christmas, Halloween, 4th of July, etc., but I didn’t have one for Easter!

Then I remembered a bunch of extra plastic eggs my mother-in-law had brought over last year and I had stuffed in the hall closet. And for some reason we had a couple metal wreath frames in the closet too. I started getting more and more excited as I thought about it — I had extra pastel pipe cleaners…and a hot glue gun — surely I could put something together!

Here is all you need to make this super-easy DIY Easter Egg Wreath:

I’ve included shop-able ad links for your convenience in finding the items used to create this Easter egg wreath; read our disclosure policy here.

1. plastic Easter eggs
2. pipe cleaners
3. 12″ wire wreath frame
4. hot glue gun

I already had most of these items on hand, but it should only cost about $15 to purchase all of these supplies. (Thrifty is always a plus for a craft too!!)

How to make an easy plastic Easter egg wreath:

First, I glued the eggs to the wreath frame with the widest part of the eggs touching each other and the pointy side facing outwards.

TIP: Before I glued anything, I arranged the eggs in a pattern so I wouldn’t accidentally end up with two of the same color next to each other — I had a limited number of eggs since I was only using what I found in storage.

Next, once all the eggs were attached (and glue dried), I decided to jazz up the wreath with some pipe cleaners. I played around with it until I had created some faux bows. Here’s how:

Slide one pipe cleaner under the wreath.

Cross the ends of pipe cleaner and twist twice to keep in place.

Slide a second pipe cleaner under the wreath and fasten the same way by twisting.

Fold the ends of the second pipe cleaner in to form a “bow.”

Twist the first pipe cleaner over the ends of the bow to secure.

Lastly, I trimmed the ends of the pipe cleaners so they didn’t stick out quite so far and tied on a ribbon bow for a finishing touch.

Couldn’t be easier!

I’m so happy with how my first DIY Easter Egg wreath turned out! (Especially since it was easy and free!)

This would be such a fun Easter craft to make with the kids (just be sure to help or supervise with the glue gun).

Update 1/2018 – We’ve had our Easter egg wreath for three years now and it still looks great! I’m impressed how well this craft held up over time – we use it every spring!
