You’ll love this Washi Tape Egg Spring Wreath!
I adore washi tape!
It’s so bright and colorful AND there are so many things you can make with it!!
I thought it might be fun to make a Washi Tape Spring Wreath.
You can buy all-white plastic eggs. I found mine at Hobby Lobby. They were less than 60 cents per bag of 12. But, if you have some left-over colored eggs, you spray paint those white.
Here’s what I did:
- I took a wreath form and wrapped it with some bright pink ribbon.
- Then I wrapped the eggs with the washi tape. The trick to smooth tape on the eggs, is to start at the base of the egg, then pull the tape taut as you wrap it around the egg. Once it is wrapped, smooth the tape with your fingers. If there are still wrinkles, use your nails to smooth out the wrinkles.
- Then all you do is hot glue the eggs onto the wreath form.
- The last thing I did was added a little pinwheels and some ribbon to the front.
I love seeing all of the different colors and patterns in the washi tape.
If you are wondering where to buy washi tape — Here’s are some of my favorite places:

Can you tell me what color paint you used for your door? I love it!
Love this! So bright and fun! I’m always envious of people’s “wreath creativity.” You should see the lame thing I have hanging on my front door right now… one day I will get my act together and pretty up my front door!
I’d be thrilled if you’d link up at this week’s Off the Hook!
Thanks for sharing. The amount of ribbon, and size of form?
Hi Darla!!
I think the wreath form was 12 inches in diameter and I used a couple yards of each of the ribbon. You can buy the ribbon at your craft store on spools. So just bu 2-3 spools of coordinating ribbon 🙂
xoo
Gorgeous! I love that you used washi tape in it. I featured your wreath on my blog this week in my Weekly Inspiration post. I’d love for you to stop by and take a peek:

absolutely darling! that easter wreath!!!! love it so much.
What a beautiful wreath….and now I want a turquoise door!
Meee tooo!! Want a turquoise door that is! 😉
How absolutely ADORABLE!! You are welcome to link this up at my turquoise lovin’ party!! 🙂 I also had a question if you have a chance to get back to me…I was wondering if you know of any cool places to get unique scrapbook paper…I’ve been looking everywhere and can’t find things like chevron or the fun new patterns that are out there. Do you have to print the digital ones to get those? Would appreciate any feedback you can give me on this…thanks!! HUGS….love your site!
Hi Sara!! There are some great scrapbook papers out there. Some of my favorites are Elizabeth Kartchner’s Dear Lizzy Line through American Crafts, Canvas Corp has a great line of chevron papers, Basic Grey has beautiful papers too and Heidi Swapp also has wonderful paper and chevrons. It’s hard to find them in stores, but you can order them online and I think it’s worth the hassle.
Here are some links:

Oh Jen you are SO awesome!! I can’t thank you enough!! No problem with online, that’s how I do most of my shopping since I live in the middle of no where. 🙂 Thanks SO much for taking ALL of that time to help me out. You have NO idea how many hours I have searched to no avail.
Got your blog last night & ordered $75 worth. WoW!! I didnt have any and donating I’ll use it. Never heard about sizes to get so I winged it. Thanks for tips
Darling wreath! Love the fun colors!
Aloha,
charlie
so cute Jen!!
Any idea how many eggs you used? They are not that cheap in NZ and would like to see if this is economical – ‘cos I LOVE it!
I think there is about 40 eggs on it. I bought my eggs at Hobby Lobby. They were like 80 cents a package of 12 but then an additional 40% off last week. They are probably still on sale I would bet.
xoxo
I take that back. I just counted them and there are 60 eggs. But if you used a smaller wreath form you could use less eggs too. And you can buy wreath forms at The Dollar Store. That will save you money too 🙂
Hey there! I know this is kinda off topic however I’d figured I’d ask.
Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest
writing a blog post or vice-versa? My blog goes over a lot of the same subjects as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you are interested feel free to shoot me an email. I look forward to hearing from you!
Excellent blog by the way!
this is sooooo cute!! thanks for sharing!!
oh my goodness that’s a LOT of work! Looks awesome!
Never heard where to get washi tape or to use it?? Thank you. all these Easter ideas are super/delicious. What size tape do you suggest?
Hi Susan!!
If you are going totry wrapping eggs with washi tape, I recommend using thin washi tape. It’s easier to wrap a circular object with thinner tape 🙂
xox
Cool ideas! What sources do you recommend as reliable/reasonable for washi tape?
This is super cute. I am not usually a “bold and bright” girl but this wreath on your aqua door is playful and fun. I’d like to know where you find your Washi tape or I guess your favorite source. I can’t seem to find a source that has a large amount of colors I like.
Hi Danee!!
I got my washi tape through Cute Tape -http://www.cutetape.com/shop/. You can get 3 rolls for between $4 – $8. The rolls last forever. I’ve been using the same rolls on about 15 projects this year and they are still at least half way full. If you search etsy, tons of shops will come up 🙂
xoxo
Hey Jen! Can’t wait to see you at SNAP. Thanks for all your hard work for the event. I’m beyond excited to be going.
Hi Abbey!!
I am excited to see you too!!! It’s going to be SO fun!!!
xoxoxoxo
So pretty and colorful! Makes me realize I need to get started on my Spring/Easter decorating!
Beyond adorable, Jen!
LOVE this idea… I must go buy some washi tape asap!
So beautiful Jen!
What a great idea! Love this. It looks so easy to create, too!
Jen, that is so creative! I just love all the projects that you make 🙂
Hello every one, here every one is sharing these experience, so
it’s good to read this website, and I used to go to see this website every day.
So cute Jen! I love the white eggs with the colorful tape! Such a fun wreath!
That is such a cute idea! I saw some washi tape at JoAnn’s and was just looking at it thinking how cute it looked but didn’t buy it because I didn’t know what to do with it. I think I should go back and get it! 🙂 I would love for you to share this at my link party http://thewinthropchronicles.blogspot.com/2012/03/share-it-link-party-3.html
And by the way I love your turquoise door!
Too cute! and so simple!
That wreath is adorable Jen! I love the white eggs and all the cute different patterns!
I love this!!!! So bright and colorful!
This is ADORABLE!!! I have never seen white plastic eggs though. Where did you find these?
Hi Sabrina!!
I found the white plastic eggs at Hobby Lobby — they were 60 cents for 12. Or, you can spray paint colored eggs white 🙂
xoxoxo
Your wreath is just adorable!!! Love the bright and festive look for Easter!!!
Thanks for sharing!
Rene’ xo

Eeeek – I am so excited to see you Kellie!!!!!! xoxoxoxooxoxox
LOVE this, Jen. Love how whimsical, happy and fresh it is!:)
I’ve got to check out this Washi Tape – it’s taking over the crafty internet world!!!!
I LOVE IT! I am so addicted to washi tape, but I never would have though to add it to eggs! I might have to add a bit of fun to our Easter egg hunt this year 🙂 Thanks for sharing Jen
Ack, now I must try this washi tape! Where do you find it? With my craft room still packed away, I haven’t been inside a craft store in months! Well, except Hobby Lobby, but that was only a quick trip for spray paint.
I think the easiest way to get washi tape is online. There are TONS of patterns. Just check etsy. I have a link to the shop I got mine through in the post too 🙂
xxox
Very pretty wreath, love the different pops of color, thank you for the tutorial and photos.
Sooo cute Jen!! Love this wreath! It looks so pretty on your turquoise door too!!
Thanks Tonya!!!
You are so sweet. I hope things are going great for you!!!

That is so adorable and so bright and cheery! Love that washi tape. I need a new wreath for Easter! Thanks for the inspiration!
