easter eggs decorate with napkin technique

Step 1: Prepare easter eggs
Before you start, check your polystyrene eggs. They often have production-related burrs that you can easily remove with sandpaper . This ensures a smooth surface and makes it easier to apply the napkins.

Step 2: Prepare napkins
Take the napkins and separate the printed layer from the layers underneath. Sometimes the second layer only comes off after a little patience, but it is definitely there.

Step 3: Select motif and apply napkins
Choose a motif that you particularly like. To achieve a clean result, tear off the required pieces of napkin instead of cutting them. This ensures that the edges are less visible later. You can either start with a large piece and spread it out from the center or choose smaller pieces and apply them one by one.

Step 4: Glue and dry
Apply the napkin varnish to the egg and then carefully apply the napkins . Make sure you allow enough drying time between the steps so that you don't accidentally remove the napkins again. A shashlik skewer can be useful to support the egg while you work.

Step 5: easter decoration - Building the nest
You can create a pretty nest for the perfect presentation of your easter eggs . Use a plastic plate and decorate it first with a layer of Iceland moss. Place the-willow decoration on top in the shape of a nest. Remember that binding wire can be useful to keep the willow in shape. Add small pieces of moss to give the nest a natural look.
