What you need:

How to do it: Cut two strips of felt 2 cm wide and 30 cm long for each egg. Lay the strips lengthways around the egg and tie them together at the top with a satin ribbon. Tip: If you decorate brown and white eggs with dark felt, it gets really classy!

What you need:

craft felt, satin ribbon, pillar candles.

How to do it: Cut a strip of felt about 4cm wide, long enough to wrap around the candle once. Then cut one side with scissors into irregular jags. Tie around the candle with a narrow satin ribbon. Can be easily removed when the candle has burned down.

Tip: Grass doesn’t always have to be green – maybe a bright pink would go much better with your dishes!

How to do it: Cut out a “piece of cake” from orange felt, the long sides are approx. 18 cm and the short side is approx. 16 cm. The short side is rounded off – here a large plate helps as a template! For the “carrot green” you need a felt strip of about 9 x 16 cm. Here, too, use the plate to cut out a curve that can be attached to the orange. Now use the beige thread to “weave” the orange felt across with large, loose stitches. Sew the green semicircle to the orange. Fold the carrots sideways and sew inside out. Turn inside out, fill with small candies. Tie the greenery together with the satin ribbon, then cut into strips.
