Steps:

  1. Hot glue the eggs onto the cone, starting at the bottom. I started by gluing on 4 eggs, to divide up the space into fourths. This made it easier to figure out the spacing.
  2. dividing bottom row
     
  3. I put my eggs fairly close together on the first row, then left more space for the remaining rows. Repeat rows until you reach the top.
  4. bottom row
     
    adding rows of eggs
     
  5. Applying glue to the cone in between the eggs. Stuff grass into the spaces. Remove any grass that didn't stick to the cone. Apply more glue and grass to fill any bare spots.
  6. adding grass 2

  7. Apply a lot of glue to the tip of the cone, as well as to the side of the eggs in the top row. Stuff a bunch of grass into the glue.
  8. covering top with grass
     
  9. Use scissors to trim any long pieces of grass.
  10. trim long grass
     
  11. Apply glue to the bottom of an egg and adhere it to the top of the tree. This egg will be able to open if you want to hide a small treat inside of it. :)
