bird nest eggs

My favorite projects always include materials that I can collect from the yard and transform into something new. With Easter right around the corner I couldn't resist creating some cute eggs topped with a bird nest and eggs. The best part...I simply had to walk a couple steps the front door for my supplies!

I gathered up a handful of dried flower stems, a little bit of moss and some pea gravel

Using hot glue I built a bird nest on top of my eggs. I always use eggs that have the yolk blown out.

Last, I painted my rocks blue and added them to nest.



Looking for more egg decorating inspiration? 
Have a look at all the tutorials I've shared over the years!

  8. You amaze me! These are cute, simple, and fresh! I may take this idea and paper mache over plastic eggs first to use as my base. OR maybe I will just use HALF of an egg! That would be cute too! Thanks! :)
