Easter decorations made from corks: 10 wonderful, DIY project suggestions
When the Easter holidays arrive, many of us decorate our homes with DIY decorations. Especially when there are children in the home, it is great fun to spend time together creating tons of decorations to scatter around the house and garden and the possibilities are almost endless.
The Easter holidays are especially festive, given the arrival of the spring. Amongst the numerous ideas for decorating your home for Easter, creatively recycling of wine bottle corks is just one possibility. Below, are 10 decoration suggestions you might consider undertaking:
1. Easter bunnies
Rabbits are undoubtedly one of the main icons of the Easter holidays and creating them using corks is very simple. All you need to do is take corks of the same shape and size and glue them together in the shape of a rabbit. For the whiskers, use plastic or cardboard straws and add floral decorations or colored eggs.
2. Floral wreath
To welcome your guests, decorate the front door. Making a floral wreath is child's play if you use corks of the same shape and size. Build the frame with corks, then decorate it with real or plastic flowers, colored ribbons and bows.
3. Little bunnies
A simple champagne cork can be turned into a wonderful little bunny. Paint the corks white, add ears using white and pink felt, and tails using a mini white cotton pom-poms. Very cute!
4. Cork nest
How about a nest-shaped door wreath? All you need to do is arrange the corks in a circle, and then insert decorations, blades of grass and two small chicks inside it.
5. Cute chicks
You can make cute little chicks by simply painting the corks yellow or wrapping them in yellow pipe cleaners. Folded-over pipe cleaners for the wings, an orange cardboard triangle for the beak, and you're done!
6. Centerpiece vase
How about a vase of flowers as a centerpiece? Create one using corks - it will be really unique!
7. Egged wall
Even a colorful egg made of corks hanging on the wall like a painting is a wonderful and very simple project to undertake.
8. Rustic rabbit
If you like the rustic style, make some bunnies using corks and ice cream sticks cut in half. They will look very cute!
9. Hens
Make a hen out of corks and place it in a nest together with some small chicks. The effect will be amazing!
10. The silhouette of a rabbit
We conclude with an easy-to-make decoration: the silhouette of a rabbit's head made using corks. You can decorate it with ribbons and bows or with eggs or flowers. Nice and easy.
