To make the aliens, cut 6cm long pairs of different coloured pipe cleaners and glue pom poms to one end of each.
When dry, bend or twist into the desired shapes and stick the pairs to the tops of the plastic fillable eggs. Add some neon googly eyes.
To make the planets, draw round some circular objects on different colour sheets of foam. Cut them out, and then paint on some stripes and blobs using a fine brush and acrylic paint.
To make the carrot rockets, stick a foam star to each of your felt carrots.
Now add all your decorations onto your bonnet.
First, stick the foam planets around the crown and then add the carrot rockets. Next, glue on some felt daisies and add a cute Easter chick to the centre of each.
Finally, make some green shredded tissue paper nests and glue to the top of the crown and around the brim. Pop an egg alien in each, secured in place with glue.
Your space bonnet is now complete!
