You can make and create great individual decorations such as eggs, felt animals, chenille figures and much more. You can let your imagination run wild. Our templates and instructions will give you some initial ideas for crafting.
Caterpillar:
Transfer the template for the leaf onto the green felt and draw leaf veins with a green marker if you like. The caterpillar is easily made by gluing pompoms together. Add wiggly eyes and you have a cute caterpillar. Then fix it to the leaf with a little craft glue.Butterfly:
For the butterflies, cut out a square of the desired felt and gather it in the middle. Fix the felt with chenille wire, which is twisted together at the front and the ends are used to form the antennae.
Bunny bags:
Print out the pattern and transfer it to the felt in your chosen colour. Transfer the inner ears to a contrasting coloured felt so that this is easy to see. Cut out the felt pieces and glue the smaller piece onto the larger one. Apply craft glue only to the bottom and sides so that you later have an open pocket that you can use as a cutlery bag or bag for sweets.Now you can glue on the inner ears and the whiskers. To do this, shorten three chenille wires to your liking, bundle them in the middle and glue the middle onto the bunny's face. A pompom represents the bunny's cute snub nose.
Egg warmer chick:
For the cute chick that can later keep your breakfast eggs nice and warm, cut out the corresponding pattern and transfer it twice onto the white felt. Place the two felt pieces on top of each other and insert the feather between them at the top. Glue the two felt pieces together at the edge, leaving out the straight bottom edge.Now fix two white pompoms as eyes on the egg warmer and draw on the pupils with a black marker. The beak is a rhombus of orange felt that you fold up and glue onto the chick as a beak.
Flower made from chenille wire:
For the flower you need a green chenille wire, which you divide into two pieces, two wires for the petals, which you divide into three equal pieces, and a chenille wire for the centre of the flower. This must be slightly shorter than the green one.First twist the ends of the green wire together with the one for the centre of the flower. Now wrap the 6 smaller chenille wires around the centre wire. Wrap the beginnings of the shorter wires with the second green wire. Now place the pipe cleaners, which are to represent the petals, radially apart and the one for the flower centre upwards.
In the next step, wind the chenille wire for the centre up like a snail and bend it into the centre. Repeat the same with the pipe cleaners for the petals.
Bunny Easter Egg:
Bend two bunny ears from the chenille wire of your choice and glue them to the back of the egg. For the whiskers, cut three small pieces from the ribbon and glue them onto the egg. Fix a pompom in the middle of the hair for the nose. Glue two wiggly eyes onto the egg for the eyes and your smiley bunny is ready.
