Paint Chip Egg Garland

A great craft for all the recyclers and/or scavengers out there

We loved this super easy project from Modern Parents, Messy Kids. It’s perfect for when you feel your home needs a little seasonal decor, but you don’t want to spend more than a few minutes on anything. And while we love the absolutely, ridiculously easy aspect of punching holes in paint-chips, that doesn’t mean you can’t step it up a bit by having the kids all decorate a bunch of egg cutouts and creating a garland from that.

You’ll need:

  • Scissors
  • Pencil
  • Paint chips
  • Small hole punch
  • String (waxed cotton works nicely and does not slip)

Steps:

1.  Raid your local paint or hardware store for a variety of paint chips in bright spring colours
