How to make

Step-1

Begin by cutting your foam base. Draw a circle with a 16 inch diameter. Inside the circle draw a smaller circle about 2 inches smaller – the board will mostly be covered so this does not need to be too neat. Cut out the ring. Paint green and leave to dry.

Step-2

Paint the egg cartons in pink, blue, peach and yellow. You will need a few coats to get a vivid, even colour. Leave to dry.

Step-3

Cut different-sized leaves out of green card and felt. Put a generous amount of PVA glue all over the foam ring and stick the leaves on in small clusters so they are hanging over the outer and inner edges.
