Steps to Create

1. Preparing and Painting the Hen

• Start with a yellow-brown color and carefully paint the hen’s wings.
• Apply the paint with smooth movements, using a small amount to avoid smudging.
• Once the wings are painted, continue with orange paint to cover the body, being careful not to paint the comb.

2. Adding Details

• Use a fine liner pen to draw the hen’s eyes.
• Apply red paint to the comb and the lower part of the beak.
• Paint the beak itself with dark brown or cherry color.
• Finish the head with orange paint, carefully working around the eyes.

3. Decorating the Hen and Finishing

• Outline the wings with red paint for more depth.
• Blend different colors for a more interesting effect on the wings and tail.
• Finally, after the paint dries, place the hen in the nest along with the styrofoam eggs.

Recommendations and Additional Ideas

• If you want brighter and more intense colors, apply the paint in two layers.
• Experiment with different color combinations to make the decoration more unique.
• Paint the styrofoam eggs in pastel colors or add small dots and patterns for a playful look.
