Colourful "egg calendar" with napkin technique

Sweeten your Easter time with an Easter calendar! In the Acrylic-eggs with napkin motifs are hidden little treats. Especially practical: You can use it for many years and refill it every time

Here's how it works

Mix all handicraft colours (May green, turquoise blue, Pink) with Ivory to a pastel shade, dab the colours with an Paint sponge onto the Acrylic egg halves and let them dry. To make sure that the colours cover completely, you should apply two layers of paint

Eggs, butterflies, blossoms or other Easter motifs from Napkins cut out, remove the two unprinted layers of paper. Spray the back of the uppermost napkin layer with masking glue (adhesive spray) and let it flash off briefly, then place the motifs on the eggs with tweezers and paint over them with Napkin varnish .

The Stretched Canvas in the size 40 x 60 cm in buttercup yellow and let dry. Arrange the egg halves on a trial basis on Stretched Canvas and mark the appropriate places with a dot. Cut a slit with a scalpel at the marked point, and another slit 5 mm above it. pull Satin ribbon through the slits and attach the painted and pasted Acrylic glass eggs to Stretched Canvas .

As Easter calendar numbers, 24 boards are painted white and marked with numbers (black felt-tip pen). Finally, fix the Stretched Canvas using hot glue with scattered flowers and boards

In the eggs you can now fix little sweets with Glue pads and give a lot of joy as a sweet Easter surprise.

With the help of masking glue, also known as adhesive spray, napkin motifs can also be stuck onto coloured surfaces

Masking adhesive also has the advantage that it can be applied very quickly and very evenly

When spraying the egg simply hold it in an old cardboard box, so everything else remains clean.
