Step 8: Cut an egg shape from white felt/white paper for an egg. I added some yellow paint to my egg to make it look more interesting.

Step 7: For more bitter herbs and a shank bone, I simply sketched pictures and cut them out to place on the seder plate.

Step 8: For Haggadot, I found an image of a Haggadah on the internet, and used Microsoft Word to help adjust it to doll-size. Then, I printed three and cut to size, ensuring that they opened from the correct side (the right).
