DIY Plaster Easter Nest



All you need for this project is:
  • Plaster of Paris
  • A round bowl 
  • Plaster wrap 
  • Zip lock bag 
  • Water 
  • Scissors

Wrap plastic wrap around a bowl

Mix plaster and water in a zip lock bag according to manufacturer’s instructions. 

Cut the corner of the zip lock and make your nest design. Plaster dries quite quickly, so it’s best to do this step as quick as you can. 
Let your nest dry overnight. 


Spray paint desired color. When dry, add decorative grass and eggs.

Voila!
