I promised to show you how to use the grass-filled eggshells from an earlier post. One of the ways I use them is as Easter place cards. Making a simple paper holder, the eggs help serve as part of pretty place cards on an Easter table.
To make the egg holder, use any scrap of fabric or paper you may find attractive that fits well with your table top color scheme.
Options can include: a pretty paper cocktail napkin, magazine page, newspaper, scrapbook or wrapping paper, wall paper, brown paper, empty seed packets, paint chips…even birch bark.
Just add an egg you have planted with grass…or, any decorated egg and you are good to go!
There is another way go…if you have kids, you may have seen this coming…grass heads! Instead of adding names to the placeholders, have the children draw the person’s likeness on the egg with a marker. Guests can be asked to find ‘their egg’ to locate their seat…sure to get the young artists giggling!
There is still plenty of time to plant some grass heads before Easter!
Join me Friday for more egg fun! Friday field trip this week is kickin’ it back to kindergarten by using some easy techniques from my childhood to make some great egg designs…see you then!
Thanks for stopping by.
Remember to take pleasure in simple things, Jackie
