Acorn Plastic Eggs for Fall: Simple Thanksgiving Décor

每个人都喜欢一个simple DIY project为了使他们的年度秋季装饰铺平,对吗?这个符合账单 - 挖出一些从复活节剩下的塑料鸡蛋,并通过将它们变成甜美的季节性橡子小插图来很好地利用它们。这些在某种药剂师中看起来也很棒。

How To make the Acorn Plastic Eggs for Fall:

DIY橡子鸡蛋Plastic View in gallery

If your eggs aren’t already separated, cut them apart and trim off the plastic tab.

Divide them into two piles View in gallery

Divide them into two piles – the top part of the egg and the bottom part of the egg. Gather all the top halves together. These will be the spray painted part.

Set up the top halves of the eggs View in gallery

Set up the top halves of the eggs onto an old sheet. If you’re using more than one spray paint color (this example uses a gold and silver), divide them up at this point so you can spray both groups and allow them to dry simultaneously.

Shake up your spray paint (paint + primer is recommended).

轻触,在鸡蛋周围移动 View in gallery

Work in light strokes and move around the eggs to spray them from all angles. Do two or three coats until you can no longer tell what color the egg was originally.

Let the painted halves dry completely.

While the top halves of the eggs are drying, you can work on creating the “hat” part of the acorn on the other halves of the eggs. There are a few methods to doing this successfully; I’ll share the two that worked best for me. Cut 5-8 short strips of jute.

Glue the strips to the apex of the egg half View in gallery

将条带粘合到鸡蛋一半的顶点,紧密地粘合在一起。这只是产生黄麻的“地板”,因此当您将黄麻包裹在该中心部分(对我来说,这是最难做的)时,您不会让塑料彩色鸡蛋戳过。

从鸡蛋的赤道部分开始 View in gallery

从鸡蛋的赤道部分开始, and lay down a bit of glue all the way around the egg. Working quickly, wrap the jute around and around, trying to keep the edges of the jute touching each other.

小心翼翼地将赤道的内部自由放开,清除胶水和黄麻,因为这需要滑入外鸡蛋的外部(现已喷涂)。

Continue in this manner – lay down some glue all the way around then wrap the jute – until you cover the entire egg half in a way that looks satisfying to you. You can double up the layers of jute if you want, if your jute is thin. (I recommend a thicker jute, if possible.) Trim the jute, and make sure the end is glued down completely.

The other method I like was gluing down the end of the jute through the hole in the egg half (if your egg has holes; otherwise, just glue down a little bit on the top of the outer side), after having threaded about 1cm through the hole.

然后,结束了在里面你的egg half, work from the pole of the egg half toward the equator, again laying down glue all the way around the egg in small sections, then wrapping the jute quickly. However you choose to do it (and you may very likely find a strategy that works even better for you), complete all the acorn hats.

当事情干燥并准备好时,请继续并固定两个鸡蛋的一半。如果需要,您可以将它们关闭。

他们看起来很棒!我喜欢银(准确地说是扁平铁)和麻线的金色的混合物。

These are a pretty subtle piece of Fall décor, and I love the muted palette with a hint of metallic shine. Perfect.

但是,您选择展示它们,这些DIY“橡子”鸡蛋是升级那些丑陋(尽管是节日的)塑料复活节鸡蛋的理想方式。享受!

您甚至可以像使用塑料复活节彩蛋一样使用这些 - 粘贴一些糖果玉米或其他零食,将它们藏起来,然后让孩子们放松秋季橡子狩猎。我们喜欢一个带有实用应用的DIY项目!
