Make a hut with - a sheet of thick paper 4-5 inch square and roll it down and staple it with pins. It will look like a cylinder. Mark a rectangle shape with pencil on that cylinder. Cut three sides of the rectangle as if you can open it like a door that will rest on the fourth side. This fourth side will be vertical. Give nice paint to the hut from inside and outside. Make a cone and stick it above the hut that will be the roof of your hut. The base of the hut can be closed by a circular sheet of paper. Stick a red closer button at the door of the hut, it will work as a knob. Now attach the decorated hut to your door with the gum that will stand upright. Put around 3-4 adorned Easter eggs in that hut. You can also store some chocolates, jellies and gifts for children.
