Easter Decorations, Custom-Made... By You
Starting with bright eggshells, anything can happen TO MAKE ANY of these decorations, all you need is a supply of blown eggs that can be saved for weeks before Easter (make a small hole in each end of an egg and blow contents into a bowl), plus Easter egg [?dyes?], duplex crepe paper, pipe cleaners, clear household cement, and a batch of sequins and ferns and whatever other trimmings you choose. To make the flowers use two pipe cleaners twisted to gether for stems, and glue into hole at large end of egg. All petals start as egg-shaped cutouts of crepe paper (six per flower). Iris petals are curled over scissors and pasted to stems, three up and three down. Lightly flute daffodil petals along outer edge, paste three evenly around egg and put remaining three in between. Small cutouts may be put at top to cover hole. Stems are wound with green floral tape or crepe paper. Add leaves at bottom and place in your prettiest bowl. All the birds are made the same way, basically. First, draw the simple outline of head, wings, and tail on double crepe paper that has been pasted together. Glue to egg and add sequins for eyes. Glue the center of a pipe cleaner to the underside of each bird, then twist ends downward around twig, branch, or perch on which bird is to be attached. Finally, to make the tulip eggs, draw tulip petals on sides of a blown egg and carefully cut away with manicure scissors. The fresher the egg, the easier this will be. Attach pipe-cleaner stem and then dye the egg. Proceed as with other flowers and place in a low container. 10 Suburbia Today, March 1961
