Crafting with wooden blocks
Lay a wooden block flat in front of you and glue a second block upright on the long edge using handicraft glue. Repeat this step with two more craft blocks. As soon as the glue has dried, place the metal ring between the two wooden feet and fix everything in place with glue. Allow everything to dry thoroughly.
The metal ring now stands in a self-made stand. And is ready to be further customised.
You will need a total of 8 blocks for the wooden decoration area in the metal ring. Glue 3 blocks together twice on the long, narrow sides. Repeat this step to create two pairs.
Glue the two pairs together on the short, narrow sides to create a long board. This creates the base for the table decoration.
Keep a small distance: Glue 2 more blocks to the sides of your board so that there is a gap of 3 mm between them and they each protrude by one centimetre. As soon as everything is thoroughly dry, insert your self-made wooden decoration into the metal ring as straight as possible and secure everything at the joints with more glue.
Preparing the decorative elements
Paint the wooden eggs and individual wooden pennants individually in your favourite colours. With a second coat of paint, you can also decorate the painted eggs with dots or stripes. Make sure that the craft paint dries completely.
Label the pennants with a white opaque marker. We have drawn one letter per pennant here. Then thread the ribbon provided through the holes in the individual pennants to create a decorative banner.
Decorating
Arranging the individual decorative elements is particularly fun. Start by carefully gluing the painted eggs to your wooden board. You can continue to use handicraft glue to fix them in place, but you can also use hot glue. Decorate the wooden decoration surface with Iceland moss, decorative floss and daisy flowers. You can also use some ribbon to position the bunting perfectly and create a harmonious look.
You can also design the base of the metal bunny to match the decorated metal ring. Both decorative objects together create a harmonious overall look.
