Paper eggs with tassels

Skill rating

EASY

4 sheets scrapbooking paper

egg template

spray glue

stiff cardboard

craft knife or scissors

wool or string

(for each egg)

1

Cut out the template and trace

onto four sheets of paper.

2

Make a fold line down the

centre of each egg.

3

Glue paper eggs together, two

halves at a time, with right

sides facing out. Before gluing

the last egg in place, place a

length of wool down the inside.

4

Make tassels by winding wool

around a piece of cardboard,

20-30 times. Cut through the

loops at the top and bottom,

keeping all the strands

together. Use one strand to

knot all the others together

in the middle. Fold tassel

in half so that all the loose

ends are together. Take

another strand and tie the

two halves together about

1.5cm from the centre, to

form a ball.

5

Attach tassel to the wool

strand running down

the centre. CRAFT: COURTNEY THORNTON PHOTOS: ANDREA CALDWELL
