Eggs-cellent Easter Treat Bags
Instructions:
- Take a coloured A3 sheet and draw the shape of an egg using a pencil
- Carefully cut the drawn egg with a pair of scissors or cutter
- Now draw half egg shape the same size as the other egg you drew on the coloured sheet, but make the top uneven like the top of a cracked egg
- Cut it out and lay one jagged half egg on top of a whole egg you cut out earlier. Be careful to put the glues on the sides and leave the top open, as this will be your opening for your candy or toy
- Decorate it with colourful pom poms/ rhinestones or anything fancy
- To make your treat bag stand out, make a bow using ribbon and glue it in the middle
- Put some lollies or candies inside the pocket and be ready for the egg hunt!
