Decorating table for Easter:
Make a simple table decoration from straw, fresh or silk flowers and small chocolate eggs or tiny sugar eggs.
Bind the straw to a double-thick length of plastic-covered wire.
Use raffia to tie them separately. Shape the straw into a ring. It should be thin and look sparse initially. Once you have formed the basic shape, attach four pieces of wire diagonally across the bottom. And bind them with string or cotton in the middle. Cover the bse with a layer of straw using a needle and raffia to bind it to the wire struts. Attach more straw to the sides of the nest.
