Decoupage On Easter Eggs And DIY Bird Nest

This year I decided to get ready for Easter on time and skip all the last minute tasks, so I started to work on my eggs, because they are definitely one of the most important features of this holiday. They can be decorated in so many ways, but this weekend I used some spare time to do decoupage on wooden eggs and to make a lovely bird nests. Eggs are painted with acrylic paint and ​​I also did a decoupage with cute napkins. Finally, I did a bit of painting and coated everything with a layer of clear acrylic sealer.

Polako teku pripreme za jedan od najvažnijih hrišćanskih praznika, Uskrs. Šarena jaja su svakako jedno od najvažnijih obeležja ovog praznika, a mogu se ukrasiti na nebrojeno mnogo načina. Ja sam za vikend iskoristila malo slobodnog vremena da uradim dekupaž na drvenim jajima i napravim mala gnezda. Jaja sam obojila akrilnim bojama, potom je rađen dekupaž salvetama, malo oslikavanja i na kraju je sve premazano slojem akrilnog laka.

To make my nests, I used a rope but you can also use burlap. Cut randomly longer and shorter pieces of rope, and split each in two parts. I didn`t had sticky glue on hand, so I used the hot glue gun. Also, I didn`t put cardboard on the bottom, but you can, because that way your nest will be more firm and durable. Forming the nest is very simple. First made ​​the smallest hoop and then follow with the bigger, until you got the size you want. I recommend that you don`t try to be perfect because it's even better when it`s a bit messy. To finish it, add a few mini eggs and a bird! Adorable, right?!

Za pravljenje gnezda koristila sam kanap ali možete koristiti i jutu. 

Prvo sam isekla nasumično duže i kraće komade kanapa, pa sam svaki rasprela u dva dela. Pošto nisam imala odgovarajući lepak pri ruci, koristila sam vrući lepak. Nisam stavila karton na dno, ali vi možete jer će onda konstrukcija biti stabilnija. Gnezdo sam formirala tako što sam prvo napravila najmanji obruč, pa sam potom pravila veće sve dok nisam dobila željenu veličinu. Preporučujem da se ne trudite sa bude savršeno, jer je čak i bolje kada deluje malo neuredno. na kraju dodajte nekoliko mini jaja i pričicu i gotovi ste! Zar nije preslatko?!
