Using a recycled grapevine wreath from Christmas, I bought 6 packages of different types of eggs from the dollar store. I used my hot glue gun to place the eggs. It only took about 1 hour to do, and the cost was about $8.
Thanks for posting this. I thought this was such a cute idea, I wanted to make one for my family as well. We have tons of plastic eggs and ribbon, so all I needed was the wreath, which I got at our local craft store on sale for 50% off (around $2 after sale). Sharing how mine turned out... thanks again for the great idea!
I just wanted to tell u how cute this wreath...is I will definitely make one for next year anytime u get some wreath ideas...just let me know thks janet jsimp52 AT yahoo.com
Cute idea. Why not get bags full of Easter eggs at yard sales, thirft stores or the week after Easter for pennies on the dollar? Just another Thrifty idea!

Craft: Plastic Easter Egg Wreath
Archived on 03/28/2007
Getting ahead of the pack... here is an Easter Wreath of plastic eggs. All I did was to hot glue the plastic eggs to a wreath form that I had covered with spanish moss.
After the eggs were set, I poked in Easter "grass" to fill in the holes. I hung a plastic flocked bunny (bank) from the 99 cent store to the middle. Oh, and I got the eggs from Wal-Mart (after Easter the year before) and the 99 cent store.

What a cute idea, it is precious and inexpensive! (02/01/2006)
Wonderfully colorful idea, GreatGrannyVi. It would look especially welcome in the colorless northeast where I now call home, although I'm currently enjoying the beautiful 'winter' weather of Ventura county. (02/04/2006)
