Wreaths are a symbol of eternal life. For Easter, you can go for floral, paper or egg wreaths. For the floral wreaths, take an embroidery hook and attach all the springtime flowers that you can find. Add a bit of green just for a pop of colour. To make paper wreaths, take a large string or a circle with a hollow middle cut out from the paper. You can cut out various shapes like rabbits, eggs, carrots, or anything Easter related and attach them to the circle. You can also use halves of the plastic eggs as an element for wreath decoration.
