26 Mar No Sew Mutts & Eggs Centerpiece
The beauty of springtime Easter decor can be found in the simplest things – colorful cotton fabrics and trims. Today’s craft is super easy to make and has a bit of a traditional country flair using denim, lace and doggies – but you can vary it up however you want!
Best of all, there’s no need to break out the sewing machine for this No Sew Mutts & Eggs Centerpiece.
Let’s hop to it! 🐇
You’ll need…
- ½ yard of denim fabric
- 3 fat quarters of cotton fabrics in Spring colors
- 1 fat quarter of dog-themed cotton fabric
- Assorted lace, tassels, rick rack and fringe trims
- Hot glue gun and sticks
- Scissors
- Pinking shears
Step 1
Using regular scissors, cut 5 large egg shapes out of denim fabric that are roughly 15 inches tall x 11 inches wide. These will be the base of your egg design.
Step 2
Then, use your pinking shears to cut 5 smaller egg shapes from various spring cotton prints that are roughly 13.5 inches tall x 9.5 inches wide. In our example, we’ve cut out 3 eggs using pastel fabrics and 2 eggs from a cute garden doggie print we found at Walmart.
Step 3
Adhere each of the smaller fabric eggs onto one of the larger denim ones with hot glue.
Step 4
Glue trim around the smaller fabric eggs to hide the zig-zag edge and give it a nice finish.
Step 5
Once everything has dried, arrange your eggs in whatever pattern you prefer in the center of your table – overlapping edges, alternating directions, forming a circle, etc. and top with a simple bouquet or bowl of fruit. Or change things up and use the eggs as placemats under your favorite dinnerware!
With so many complimentary fabrics, trims and woven textiles, there’s no shortage of ways to welcome spring into your home. Family and guests alike will no doubt be charmed by your canine-inspired creation!
