Something else are this cheerfully colorful hens with space to hide a few sweets, small gifts (eg jewelry) or even very secret secret messages. A wonderful little gift or souvenir, not only for Easter.

The instruction includes the hen in two variants – with or without stripes. There are also instructions for the heart, the egg and the flowers. Properly stacked on top of each other, this cute table decoration is the perfect filling for your hens (when all the sweets have been eaten).

You can use the hen "Klipp-Klapp" as a table decoration, also as an edge stool or on the Easter bush it is super sweet. Equipped with a push button, you can also make a cute key bag or a bag pendant. Perfect to turn yarn residues into small eye-catchers.
