Very soon a great Christian holiday will come - the Bright Resurrection of Christ! Every Christian awaits this celebration.

Easter is celebrated at that wonderful time when spring comes into its own and everything around wakes up from winter hibernation. Easter cakes and dyes have become a tradition even for those who are far from faith. And all because it is touching, tender, beautiful, tasty and joyful in spring.


Let's create a special festive atmosphere in the house. Nowadays, stores offer many holiday souvenirs, but there are no gifts better than those made with your own hands and with love. In addition, this is an opportunity to perfectly decorate the apartment, make the house brighter and more colorful, and prepare and mentally prepare for the holiday. You can involve children in creating Easter crafts.
Traditional attributes of Easter are colored eggs.


Therefore, they are the main souvenir for Easter. Since over the years we have become more creative with the color we paint eggs, we can make them not just plain, but decorate them. You can make eggs white with an orange stripe or speck, and attach white and orange ribbons on top, tying them in a bow. You can also coat the egg with glue and roll it in multi-colored confetti or wrap it with serpentine. Dip in cornmeal as it yellow color and its grind is coarser than that of wheat - it will be very beautiful and original. These colors look wonderful and unusual.


The second most popular souvenir attribute in Christ's Sunday– Easter bunny
WITH light hand Germans, he joyfully walks around the world. The children were assured that the rabbit only comes to good, obedient and kind children. And if you make a rabbit yourself, then, of course, it will be the most heartfelt gift. Crochet a small bunny. This will require a little time, a hook, white threads, a few beads and filler. The body can be knitted in the shape of an egg, filled with cotton wool or padding polyester, and then sewn on tied ears and paws. Don't forget to sew on the bead eyes and embroider the nose. In a similar way, you can make chickens, which are also a symbol of Easter. You can also make a rabbit from pieces faux fur. Cut out yellow ears from felt, antennae from shiny braid, buy eyes from the store, and use a button as a nose.


Place wonderful bunnies made from small towels in your bathroom or kitchen. Place a piece of fragrant soap in each one or pour colorful bath balls and decorate them with ribbons.


Easy to implement, they will add freshness to your interior and will definitely lift your spirits.










Since rabbits love carrots, they are also used for Easter decoration. Paper or soft fabric carrots are used to decorate an Easter tree or hang as a garland.




Don't ignore old things in your home. A simple felt applique can update an ordinary, rather boring pillow and magically turn it into an organic element of holiday decor.


You can make a garland from wrapping or colored paper. Create festive mood and add bright elements to the design of your home or apartment using garlands made from various materials. Felt or colored paper. They can decorate windows, front door or walls in the room where the celebration will take place. Don't be afraid to experiment with color combinations. The brighter and juicier your garlands are, the better. Spring is the time for a riot of colors.




For the little ones
Preparing for the celebration will not require any special skills or abilities from you. Even if you are not very confident in holding a needle and thread in your hands, it will not be difficult for you to make finger toys for children. Who knows, maybe this will be the beginning of a good tradition of holiday puppet shows in your home.


Table setting for Easter is undoubtedly given great importance. You can also rely on your children in this serious matter. With a little help, even the smallest members of your family will be able to contribute to creating a festive atmosphere. Wonderful stands for Easter eggs should be decorated with flowers. Not a single holiday is complete without flowers, and even more so a spring holiday like Easter.


Inspire children to create crafts from scrap materials. In their imagination, ordinary things turn into something extraordinary. In this they really have no equal. Who would have thought that from disposable tableware You can make such wonderful themed crafts.


Easter envelopes
The kids, of course, will be interested in taking part in the ceremonial preparations. Paper crafts for Easter are something in which children can express themselves. Such paper crafts for Easter can then be filled with something tasty, such as candies, dragees, almonds, or a beautiful card can be placed in them.
In order to make these crafts for Easter with your own hands, you will need:
- sheets of white paper,
- colored paper,
- glue,
- scissors,
- ruler,
- a simple pencil.
These simple envelopes make great little Easter gifts for kids, just add as many goodies as you can inside!


Divide 2 sheets of white paper in half by drawing lines with a pencil. At the top of the sheets, draw bunny ears with a pencil, and cut out parts in the shape of bunny ears from colored paper (4 pieces per 1 envelope).
To make these crafts for Easter with your own hands, cut out blanks with ears from 2 sheets of paper, and cut out parts in the shape of ears from colored paper. You should end up with 4 bunny ears and 4 pieces of colored paper. Now glue the cut out parts onto the ears in the blanks. After this, glue the blanks together, cut out the nose, eyes and antennae for the hare from colored paper, and then glue these parts onto the envelope.
One of the most beautiful decors for home – Easter tree
Although this is a Western European tradition, it was also successfully used in the Russian Empire. Such a tree was carried during the procession of the patriarch and was called the “royal willow.” Making such an Easter tree is quite easy. Take a small bucket or flower pot, perhaps you have a medium-sized ceramic vase. Fill your container with floral foam purchased from a florist or just sand. Break any branches on the street, although willow is better, of course. Place your branches in a pre-prepared container and decorate with paper flowers, garlands, small nests with chicks, colorful ribbons and, of course, decorated eggs.


In addition to traditional willow branches, which will probably decorate your apartment anyway, you can use birch, willow or bird cherry branches to make an unusual spring bouquet. At your request, the branches can be coated with white paint or placed in water and wait for the buds to bloom. The final touch will be pendants in the shape of birds, which you can make from felt, paper, or even cut out from old magazines.



There must be fire on the Easter table
Fire is a symbol of light, and you simply cannot do without candles. During the Easter night service, a large candle is placed at the altar; it is a symbol of Jesus Christ, and its flame is a symbol of the resurrection. Decorate your Easter table with original candles. For this you will need eggs. You need to carefully break the egg in the middle and take out the contents, so you get two holiday candlesticks. To make it more beautiful, they can be painted. Now place small candles inside. Or you can melt candle wax, pour it into the shell and immerse the wick there. To prevent the candles from turning over, you need to make stands for them. Take colored cardboard, cut a strip two centimeters wide and twenty centimeters long, bend it into a circle and glue it - the stand is ready.








Greens in a “pot” from eggshells
Imagine how symbolic it will look: an egg as a source of life, and the greenery sprouted in it, as a living embodiment of a bright and young life!

Take empty egg shells, fill them with soil, moisten it slightly and plant the seeds of your choice in it. To prevent the shells from wobbling, make special stands for them. For example, paint plastic bottle caps with a mixture of gouache and PVA glue and place “pots” on them.
In a couple of days, sprouts should appear, and you can give such unique DIY crafts for Easter to your family and friends!
There is another option - you can mark the flowers of snowdrops, lilies of the valley or violets in shells filled with water. It will be very beautiful! And such a DIY Easter craft will receive the highest praise!


Decorating eggs using quilling technique

In order to make such crafts for Easter with your own hands, it is better to use special foam eggs. Although, you can also use regular boiled or raw ones with the contents released.


The quilling technique involves twisting thin strips plain paper(colored or white) using a pencil and then gluing them onto the eggs. How exactly to make such crafts for Easter with your own hands is up to you. The main thing is imagination and desire!
Funny eggshell animals


To create such toys you will need several whole eggs, a needle, colored paper, scissors, markers, plasticine, and glue. Wash the egg and carefully make holes on both ends. Blow the contents into a cup (and prepare, for example, an omelet) and let the shell dry. Cut out paws, wings, tail, ears, and a snout from paper and glue them onto the egg. Eyes, nose, mouth and buttons can be drawn with a felt-tip pen, sculpted from plasticine, or also made from paper. Cute little animals are ready!

Wicker baskets and stands
In such a basket you can put ready-made Easter cake, bright eggs, and funny toys from the shell:









Eggshell mosaic painting
Paint the washed and dried shell on the inside in two layers. Cut out an applique from paper and apply glue to the applique area. Place the shell there and press it down lightly. Apply glue to the next area and also glue the shell there. Lay out the drawing gradually, alternating colors. Small pieces of shell can be moved with tweezers or a toothpick. Glue the resulting mosaic drawing onto a sheet of cardboard and insert it into a frame.




Easter egg made of threads

Surely, you have seen eggs made from multi-colored threads more than once, which look so interesting! And what’s best is that you can make these Easter crafts yourself! To do this you will need:
- small balloon,
- colored threads,
- PVA glue,
- needle,
- scissors.
To make this craft for Easter with your own hands, inflate a balloon so that it is shaped like an egg. After this, thread a needle and pass it through a jar of glue so that the thread is completely covered with glue. After this, tightly wrap the inflated balloon with thread and glue, leaving the tail of the balloon at the bottom. Wait until the glue on the thread dries and carefully deflate the ball, then remove it from the egg. Isn't it an original DIY craft for Easter?








Easter is not only a holiday, but also another opportunity to show creativity, as well as to introduce your kids to it. There are many Easter crafts. No matter what your hobby is, there is something different in every type of creativity.
Various crafts for Easter interior
It is customary to give gifts at Easter. Don't deny yourself the pleasure of making them yourself.

Why do we love holidays? Probably because it’s nice to prepare for them: think about gifts, set the table. But there are special, bright celebrations in our lives, such as Easter. On Easter, people give each other small Easter gifts: painted eggs, Easter cakes, baskets, Easter souvenirs. Children love to prepare crafts for Easter with their own hands; they are so interested in taking part in the preparation and work. We have selected the most from a variety of crafts interesting master classes for children and adults.

This interesting basket for eggs can be easily made from disposable plate, wooden clothespins and tape.

Cut a disposable plate with scissors:

Glue the sides together and seal the top with paper or tape. Separate the clothespins and glue them with Moment glue. We secure the top with a thin braid.

We cut strips of paper into the bottom and make a handle from cardboard. Decorate with a bow or several.

We print out the bunny template or draw it on a sheet of cardboard or thick paper. We paint on both sides, glue and place a beautiful Easter egg in the paws.

We make chickens from disposable spoons, cotton pads, colored paper.

More Easter-themed crafts: unusual egg plates. How beautiful multi-colored eggs will look on such an original plate! Cut out 4 legs and a bunny's head from white paper, and decorate the face. We put clothespins on a plate and glue paper paws to them. Place chopped white paper on the bottom of the plate.

We make a plate with chicken in the same way. Differences: yellow paper and the size of the paws.

DIY gifts for Easter

There are so many ideas for gifts for Easter, you’ll get tired of choosing. I would like to hope that our master classes will help you in your choice.

From paper

An Easter basket for the upcoming holiday can be made from an ordinary paper bag. Or from beautiful wrapping paper, maybe you have leftover candy boxes. There are many options. Multi-colored Easter eggs or delicious treats will look original in such an interesting basket.

To work you will need:

1. Paper.
2. Scissors.
3. Ruler.
4. Hot-melt gun or regular paper glue.
5. Pencil.

If you took a bag for work, you need to cut off the bottom of it. Cut the side. Using a ruler and pencil, draw the paper into strips 3 cm wide.

We bend all the strips in half along the entire length.

We begin to weave a basket from the strips, as in the photo.

To prevent the parts from getting tangled, glue the strips to the top of the basket, then cut it all off. Glue the handle and glue the top of the basket.

We will make an interesting chicken stand for Easter eggs as a gift. There are several recipes for making dough.

Recipe for wheat flour dough:

1. Flour - 2 cups.
2. Extra salt - 1 glass.
3. Cold water - 250 grams.
4. Bag for storing products.
5. 1 tbsp. spoon of sunflower oil.

Recipe for products made from rye flour:

1. 3 cups (300 gr.) wheat flour.
2. 1 cup (100 gr.) rye flour.
3. 2 cups (400 gr.) fine salt.
4. 250 ml water.

Rye flour gives the figures a warm bread color. To prepare any dough, mix flour and salt, then gradually pour in cold water and mix again. The degree of readiness of the dough can be determined as follows: if the dough stretches and sticks to your hands, it means there is a lot of water in it. Therefore, you need to add more flour.

To work you will need:

1. The dough is salty.
2. Stack.
3. Peeler.
4. Toothpick.
5. Manicure file.
6. Black peppercorns.
7. Paints, brush.
8. The varnish is transparent.
9. Garlic press.

Roll out the flatbread to a thickness of 0.5-0.7 cm, this will be the chicken’s nest itself. We make the side parts of the nest using a garlic press. We form a “straw” by moistening it with water.

Leave the work to dry for 1 day so that the dough holds its shape well in the future. Let's start sculpting the chicken. We sculpt the body blank. We need the chicken as a stand for an egg, which means we need to make a recess for the Easter egg. Let's take it round shape, make a notch, sculpt the breast and neck of the chicken. Use a vegetable peeler to feather the breast.

Insert a toothpick into the chicken's neck, leaving 1.5 cm. Connect the nest and the chicken's body. Roll out the dough, make wing blanks 1 cm thick. Draw the plumage with a vegetable peeler, attach it to the body of the chicken, moistening it with water.

Next, our task is to give the chicken a beautiful tail. We take an oval cake 0.7-1 cm thick as a basis. We make the plumage with a vegetable cutter. We trim the edges of the tail with a knife to resemble the pattern of feathers. Make the cuts neat, smoothing them with your fingers. Attach the tail to the chicken's body. Place something under your tail, such as a ball or an apple. After the product dries, remove the apple.

Roll up round ball for the head. We shape the scallop using fingers and a stack, giving it the desired look.

To make the eyes, you need to mark their location. Make dents for the eyes with a stack. Next, use a vegetable peeler to make dents so that the eye becomes shaped.

Insert a peppercorn instead of the pupil. We make a beak and sculpt it to the head.

We fasten the head and body by putting the head on a toothpick. We attach a small strip of dough to stabilize the head. Decorate the chicken neck with dough feathers. You can make “earrings” for the chicken from pieces of dough.

We sculpt chickens in the same way. Don't forget to wet the parts for better fastening.

We leave the product to dry for 1-2 days, placing them in a distant place, maybe even on a closet. After a day or two, when the chickens and chickens have hardened, we finalize the work: we plant the figures on leaves, moistening the centers with water. Leave it in the air for 1-2 days. We dry the products first in air, and then put them in the oven at a temperature of 50 degrees for 1 hour. After drying, paint and cover with clear varnish.

Another option: dough figures: we make Easter bunnies, hens, chicks. You can make fridge magnets out of them, or pendants on willow branches.

The fastest gift option is multi-colored paper napkins and ribbons. Wrap the boiled egg in a napkin and tie with a ribbon. Can be replaced with corrugated paper.

This funny and interesting Easter chicken can be crocheted.

To work you will need:

1. Yellow yarn, 100% cotton or 50/50,
2. Some orange and white yarn.
3. Hook number 3.

We start knitting from the body. First 7 rows:

1st - 8 sc in an amigurami loop
2nd - knit 2 sc in each loop (16 sc)
3rd - 1 sc, 2 sc, and so on (24 sc)
4th - in every third loop add: 2 sc, 2 sc (32 sc)
5th - in each 4 p. add: 3 RLS, 2 RLS (40 RLS)
6th - in every 5 p. add: 4 RLS, 2 RLS (48 RLS)
7th - in every 6 p. add: 5 RLS, 2 RLS (56 RLS)

15th - knit the 5th and 6th stitches together (40 sc)
16th - we knit 2 rows without decreasing (40 RLS)
18th - knit the 4th and 5th stitches together to decrease (32 RLS)
19th - no decreases (32 RLS)

We fill the chicken with cotton wool or padding polyester.

20th - knit every 2nd and 3rd stitch together (16 sc)
21st - knit every two loops together (8 sc)
Cut the thread and carefully sew up the hole.

Wings (2 wings):

• 1st - dial 7 air. loops with yellow yarn, 1 sc in the second loop from the hook, 4 sc, 3 sc in one loop, 4 sc, conn. P.
• 2nd - 1 VP, 4 RLS, two times 2 RLS in one stitch, 3 RLS in one loop, two times 2 RLS in one loop, conn. P.
• 3rd - 1 VP, 1 sc in each loop
• 4th - 1 VP, 1 connection. p. in each loop

We knit the paws with orange yarn:

• 1st - 2 VP, 6 sc in the second loop from the hook (6 sc)
• 3rd - increase in every second stitch (18 RLS)
• 4th - row without changes (18 RLS)

Beak (1 piece)

1st - cast on 5 VP, 1 sc in the 2nd loop from the hook, half-dc, 1 dc, and 1 dc2h

Eyes (2 parts)

• 1st - 6 sc in amigurami loop (6 sc)
• 2nd - increase in each stitch (12 sc)
• 3rd - increase in every 2nd stitch (18 sc)
• The beads are different (colors are indicated next to the diagrams).
• 2 meters of thin fishing line or nylon thread.
• 2 beading needles.

We start weaving from the central row from number 1 to number 2, then we perform each part separately at different ends of the fishing line, using the table.

In the egg weaving pattern, notice the double rows (12 and 13 at the top, 13 and 14 at the bottom). For a chicken-shaped keychain in the upper part, we first weave the right wing (numbers 5 to 9), and then the left wing (numbers 10 to 16). Next, we move on to the design of the head (numbers 17 to 40).

What would Easter be without Easter cakes, Easter eggs, souvenirs and angels? You can make these original Easter angels with your own hands from ordinary pasta. Pasta can be anything: stars, cones, spirals, vermicelli. These angels can be hung on a willow branch or placed in an Easter basket.

To work you will need:

1. Pasta.
2. Ribbons or sticks.
3. Hot-melt gun or Moment glue.
4. PVA glue.
5. Salt dough balls.

Use a glue gun to connect the head (dough ball) to the body. Next, glue the ribbon to the back. We select wings from pasta and glue on top of the braid.

Thickly coat the angel's head with PVA glue and dip it into small noodles or stars. This is the "hair" of an angel.

For hands, use openwork pasta. Apply glue thickly on the sides, near the wings and glue.

We paint with either simple golden paint or spray paint.

If you want to insert them into an Easter basket, insert a stick inside the pasta body and glue it, the crafts are ready.

DIY Easter crafts made from pasta

Pasta is also used in making various crafts. We offer you several lightweight options for creating an Easter souvenir from pasta.

Method one: original Easter egg

Let's cook necessary materials and tools:

• wooden or foam eggs
• glue (it is better to use PVA, then there will be no traces of glue left on the finished craft
• tassel
• bright colors
• stand on which ready product will dry
• pasta in the form of small stars
• dry glitter

Let's start creating!

• Apply a layer of glue evenly to the blank of the future Easter egg and begin gluing pasta stars in even rows (but only raw ones!).

• If desired, you can use small pasta different shapes, and also glue them to the workpiece in any order.
• Leave the egg for a while so that the glue dries well.
• We check whether the glue has dried and, if all the stars adhere well to the Easter egg blank, cover the product with paint. We use a brush for this.

• To decorate an egg with glitter, coat the desired area with glue and sprinkle with dry glitter. After the glue has dried, shake off the excess glitter.

• You can make these bright souvenir eggs with your child and decorate the room for Easter by putting the crafts in a basket.

You can make angels from pasta of different shapes.

For this craft you will need the following pasta:

• stars
• horns
• spirals
• vermicelli

A handmade angel can be placed next to Easter eggs, placed in a basket or placed next to willow branches.

We will need:

• pasta
• sticks
• glue (Moment or heat gun will do)
• PVA glue
• pre-prepared salt dough balls or hand-made foam or wooden rounds purchased in a handmade store

How to make an angel from pasta:

• Glue the pasta in the form of a wheel to a thick tube.
• Apply glue to a salt dough ball or foam piece and connect it to the body.
  We glue a small ribbon on the back.

• We select pasta for the wings that is suitable in shape and size (for us it is bow pasta) and glue it on top of the ribbon.

• We use small vermicelli for the angel’s hair: we smear his head with PVA glue and immerse it in a bowl with vermicelli or lay it out in even rows.
• We use pasta horns for handles. We glue them near the wings.

• All we have to do is cover the angel with paint. You can use gold, white or silver paint.

• Why do you need a wand? To glue it inside the body of the angel and place it in the Easter basket.

DIY Easter crafts made from cotton pads

Without the image of a chicken or an angel, it is difficult to imagine the Easter holiday. Let's try to make an interesting simple craft - a bright and cute chicken that can become an element of Easter basket decor or decorate a room during the holiday.

To work you will need:

• cotton pads
• yellow egg dye
• colored paper or cardboard sheets of the desired color
• scissors
• chenille wire

Let's get started:

• Dilute the paint with water and dip cotton pads into the solution. For one chicken you will need two painted yellow disk. We leave them to dry.
• From chenille wire suitable color let's make paws.

• Cut out a comb from red or orange paper, wings and a beak.
• We place the parts cut out of colored paper between two cotton pads and glue them.
• For the chicken's eyes, you can use toy blanks or cut them out of paper and draw a black pupil. We glue the eyes on both sides.

You can make angels from cotton pads that will complement any interior.

How to make an angel from cotton pads?

• Divide the cotton pad into two parts.
• Place the bead in the center of one of the parts of the cotton pad.
  We process the edges of the cotton pad with zigzag scissors for a more aesthetic appearance of the product.

We tie the button with thread

• We bend the disk with the bead inside in a circle and wind the thread under the bead. We straighten the resulting “skirt” from a cotton pad.
• Fold the second part in half. We wrap the edges of the workpiece at the same distance from the center. After this, we wrap the edges towards the center.

Making the wings and body

• Having dipped a toothpick in glue, unfold the slightly twisted cotton ball and glue it inside.
  Glue the wings to the body.

We connect the parts with glue and apply shiny paint on the dots on the wings.

• All that remains is to apply a halo stripe on the head and dots on the wings using paint with glitter and the delicate angel is ready!

To work you will need:

• salty dough
• glass of water
• several different brushes
• stack
• paints (preferably gouache)
• rolling pin
• plungers or suitable baby molds
• a raw egg

Let's get to work!

• First you need to blow out the contents of the egg by making holes at opposite ends.
• Let's make long sausages from salt dough and roll them out into flat ribbons using a rolling pin.

• Take one ribbon and wrap it around the egg. Take the tape again and glue until half of the egg is hidden under the layer of dough.
• We make an egg stand using a juice lid or plastic bottle, and place a wooden egg on it.

• Using molds or a plunger, we prepare flowers for decoration and, after moistening the place where each flower will be attached with water, we place the cut-out decorative blanks.
  We complement the composition with leaves cut out from salt dough.

Cut out flowers for decoration. We use plowers or baby molds for this.

• Inside the egg there will be a bird, chicken or candle, which also needs to be molded from dough.

• We dry the product. To make the drying process faster, place the product in the oven and dry it over low heat with the door open for 2 hours. Then leave with the door closed until it cools and repeat until the product is dry enough.

• Remove the egg shell from the dried product.
  Inside the craft we place the previously prepared salt dough figurine.

• We decorate the craft, decorate it with beads or seed beads, and cover it with varnish. Easter chicken made from salt dough

To work you will need:

• ready-made salt dough
• paints
• tassel

Let's make a flat cake from salt dough - the base of the nest.

• We will make the walls of the nest with a weaving effect by passing the salt dough through a garlic press. Lay out the resulting strips around the perimeter of the nest.

Preparing the cake - the base of the nest

• Let's start making the body of the chicken. Let's make a flat cake again and pull the edges up to form a neck. We stick a match inside the neck to then secure the head to it.

• The chicken's head is spherical. Add black pepper eyes, make a comb and beak.

• We attach the head to the body. We place the chicken in the nest. We dry the structure.

• We make wings and attach them to the body of the chicken.
  We make a tail and also attach it to the body, beautifully straightening the edges.

You can make your own Easter egg for the chicken. To do this you will need a Kinder surprise egg. It just needs to be wrapped salt dough and dry. After this we apply a layer of paint and an inscription. We cover the entire craft and the egg with varnish.

Hat with bunny ears for Easter egg

Here's how to sew a bright souvenir - an Easter egg.

To work you will need:

• scraps of fabric (you can take chintz, cotton, linen with ornaments and patterns)
• pattern (its size can be changed depending on what kind of egg you want to sew: in life size, small - for a pincushion, a little larger or very large, which will then be used as a sofa cushion)

Draw the pattern on paper and cut it out.

• We apply the pattern to the fabric on the wrong side and trace it with a pencil or chalk. We cut out, simultaneously transferring the points from the pattern to the fabric.
• We fold the two parts with the right sides inward, point to point, and stitch.
• Repeat with the second pair of flaps.
• Place the two halves of the workpiece side by side and turn one of them right side out. We put the turned part inside another part.
• We connect the parts with pins. The main thing here is that the edges do not extend beyond each other. Sew, leaving an opening for turning.
• Turn the Easter craft inside out.
