Easter Egg Wreath

March 21, 2012
By Bowdabra Design Team

Welcome guests to your home with a gorgeous Easter egg wreath.  Use small little vibrantly colored foam Easter eggs or plastic Easter eggs.  Finish the grapevine Easter egg wreath with a beautiful wire ribbon Bowdabra Bow.

Materials Needed:

Instructions:

1. Begin with a grapevine wreath and small foam eggs.  I purchased 2 packages or a total of 24 eggs at the Dollar Store.

2. Glue the foam eggs onto the grapevine wreath.  Leave a spot to tie the Bowdabra Bow.

3. To create the bow for the wreath cut 24″ of Bowdabra Bow Wire and fold it and place it into the Bowdabra.  Cut strips of large width wire ribbon about 6″ long pointed at each end and place them into the Bowdabra.

4. Cut strips of additional coordinating ribbon and place them into the Bowdabra, as well.

5. Fold and press ribbon into the Bowdabra creating loops.  Leave a smaller loop at the top for the center of your bow.

6. Scrunch down the bow with your Bowdabra Wand.

7. While the bow is still in the Bowdabra, thread the two loose ends of the Bowdabra Bow Wire through the loop at the other end.  Pull the Bowdabra Bow Wire tightly while the bow is still in the Bowdabra.

8. Gently pull the bow out of the Bowdabra.  Separate the two loose ends of the Bowdabra Bow Wire and bring them around to the back of the bow and knot.

9. Fluff the bow.

10. Attach the bow to the wreath using the remaining Bowdabra Bow Wire.  I decided to place my bow on the side of the wreath.
