Glitter eggs You’ll need: Eggs, nail, bowls, straws, craft glue, paintbrush, glitter, sticky tape, egg cups
SUPER SPEEDY Use a fast-drying glue such as Mod Podge so you can work on one side of the egg at a time. Cover the holes with layers of glitter.
1 Make a tiny hole at the small end of an egg with a nail. Wiggle the nail around inside to break up the yolk. Make a larger hole at the other end. Hold the egg over a bowl and use a straw to blow through the big hole to remove the inside. Repeat. Rinse out the shells and let them dry. 2 Dot glue on the eggs using a paintbrush,
then put in a bowl and shake over glitter. Or dip the ends in glue then in glitter. To create a line, spread glue between two pieces of sticky tape then sprinkle with glitter. Remove the sticky tape while the glue is wet. 3 Put the eggs in egg cups or an egg box to dry completely.

1 Lay the larger rings together and thread wool through the centre, around the ring, until it’s completely covered. Cut the wool all around the rim, between the discs. Tie the pompom in the middle with a long strand of wool, leaving long loose ends, before removing the rings. Repeat with the smaller rings. Use the loose
ends to tie the pompoms together to form your rabbit head and body. 2 Cut ears in the same colour felt as the body and inner ears in pink or white. Use a craft glue gun to fix them to the small pompom. 3 Sew on black wool for eyes and pink wool for a nose. 4 Glue a small white pompom onto the back for the tail.
