This is a quick and easy craft. Using styrofoam eggs, put a heavy duty tooth pick, or a wood skewer, (helps in holding) stick it in the bottom of the egg.

Take a printed decorative napkin and pull it apart so you only have the outer layer, tear into small pieces.

Then you will need a Modge Podge medium or you can use white glue diluted with water. Using a craft brush paint the Styrofoam egg well, then take small pieces of the torn napkin and place them on the egg and pat it down (careful because you could pull up the napkin). Add glue to your craft brush and pat the napkin down. Take another piece and continue until the egg is covered. Let dry and give the covered egg another coat of Modge Podge or glue and let dry.

Depending on how you are using the egg decoration, you could tie several strand of the narrow ribbon on the wood skewer to hang down OR you could make several loops for the top and put a pin in to hold in place (dip pin in glue).

Use your imagination!
