Whether as an egg cup or as a small planting bowl - these cute chicks always cut a good figure. Thanks to the waterproof bowls, you can plant small plants such as cress like in our example. Even the smallest among us will have fun making the chicks and then sowing cress or other seeds. With a little paint, foam rubber and our template, the chicks are easy to make.
This is how you design the cute chicks:
Paint the cardboard egg shells with craft paint. In our example, we chose the VBS craft colour honey yellow for a chick and gradually lightened the other eggshells with white craft colour.
Once the eggshells are dry, you can paint on the eyes with markers and fineliners.
Transfer the templates to the foam rubber and then cut out the feet and beaks. Glue the foam rubber parts to the eggshells using craft glue no. 182.
Now nothing stands in the way of further decorating. They are perfect as egg cups on the Easter table or as small planting bowls for cress, for example, as the cardboard egg shells are waterproof.
