Decorate eggs

How to instructions

1 Brush a plastic egg with glue.
2 Sprinkle glitter in various colours over the glue, until completely covered.
3 Hang up the egg and let dry.
4 Decorate the Easter bouquet with your beautiful glittery eggs!

Make fantastic Easter decorations with glitter! Vary the pattern by dotting and brushing the Easter eggs with glue in a variety of ways. You can also sprinkle with glitter in different colours to achieve beautiful colour variations. An easy Easter craft with spectacular, sparkly results! Tip: Before sprinkling the eggs with glitter, place them on a sheet of paper so that you can easily gather up the excess glitter.

How to instructions

1 Use markers to draw any pattern you like on drained eggs.
2 Dot glue here and there, and stick on sequins and confetti.
3 Let dry.
4 If you like, attach an egg hanger and hang in the Easter bouquet.

Decorating eggs is an essential Easter tradition! Panduro's permanent markers adhere well to eggshell and come in lots of beautiful colours, so you can make your own unique Easter decorations. Jazz up your Easter eggs even more with sparkling sequins and confetti. Then simply hang them in the Easter bouquet or arrange them on the Easter table as decoration.

How to instructions

1 Open the card egg and paint one half with light blue finger paint. Let dry.
2 Mix yellow and white finger paint together, to make light yellow.
3 Cover the childs palm with the light yellow paint and make a handprint on the middle of the egg. Brush the handprint with glue and sprinkle with glitter.
4 Paint green blades of grass around the handprint and sprinkle with glitter.
5 Cut and fold legs and a beak out of pipe cleaner. Glue them onto the egg, along with a wiggly eye, transforming the handprint into an Easter chick.
6 Attach a piece of embroidery yarn to the egg and hang it up.

Gather up the little ones and craft this silly Easter chick! Paint the outside of half of a card egg - finger-painting is fine, if holding a brush is hard. Then paint the child's palm and make a classic handprint - a favourite for anyone who enjoys getting messy with paint! Finally, transform the handprint into an adorable chick using pipe cleaner, glitter and eyes.

How to instructions

1 Empty the eggs using the egg pump. Rinse off the eggs in water to get rid of any residues.
2 Spatter-paint the eggs with shimmering Hobbylack paint.
3 Write fun messages on approx. 2 x 10 cm notes. Hand-write them, or print them from a computer.
4 Make the holes in the eggs a little bigger.
5 Wrap up the notes tightly and carefully press one inside each egg.

Surprise your guests with an eggstraordinary Easter table setting! First, empty the eggs and paint them beautiful colours. Then write silly Easter messages on little notes, and hide them inside the eggs like a fortune cookie. Set the Easter table with your surprise-filled eggs and have guests crack open their eggs to read the messages inside.

How to instructions

1 Wear protective gloves and use extra thick paper towels.
2 Tear off a square piece of paper towel and place an egg in the centre of it. Wrap the paper towel around the egg and use a rubber band to tightly secure it in place.
3 Drip food colouring onto the paper towel wrapped around the egg. Try using several different colours on one egg.
4 Spray the paper towel with water, so the food colouring spreads out. Leave the eggs overnight to dry.
5 Carefully remove the paper towel pieces once they are dry, and see how beautiful your eggs are!

Make dazzling, colourful Easter eggs! You can use food colouring to dye drained eggs, and hard-boiled eggs that you will serve with your Easter meal. We used the tie-dye technique to create beautifully variegated Easter eggs. Tip! The paper towel you use to dye the eggs will also end up looking lovely - you can use it for another Easter craft, like cutting out pretty feathers.

How to instructions

1 Wear protective gloves and mix the egg dyes according to the instructions on the package with water and vinegar, each in their own cup.
2 Cut a pair of nylon tights into suitably sized pieces for each egg.
3 Using hard-boiled eggs, place a leaf or flower right up against the egg. Hold the plant in place and slide the cut piece of nylon tights around the egg. Secure it in place with a rubber band or a clip on the back.
4 Dip the egg in the dye. Let the egg soak in dye for 4 to 6 minutes if you want a vibrant colour. For a lighter shade, 10 to 15 seconds will do.
5 Remove the nylon tights and the plant, and let the egg dry.

Eggs in every colour of the rainbow are an Easter essential! You can use food colouring to dye drained eggs, and hard-boiled eggs that you will serve with your Easter meal. Pick a few flowers and leaves and use egg dye to create pretty plant designs on your eggs. We used ivy and ferns. You can also try dipping the egg in a series of different dyes, or combine different colours in a single cup for a slightly more muddled result.

How to instructions

1 Paint the lamb faces using beige Hobbylack on white plastic eggs. Paint the shape with wavy edges, like a cloud.
2 Cut out ears, arms and feet from paper and glue them on with a glue gun.
3 Draw eyes and noses on all the animals with a black waterproof pen.
4 If you like, dot some whiskers onto the rabbits with white Hobbylack.
5 Make little floral bouquets and floral decorations with floral tape and paper that the animals can hold in their paws or have around their heads as decoration.

Transform your dyed Easter eggs into adorable animals to hang in your Easter bouquet or from a few lovely branches. We have made two rabbits or Easter bunnies and two fuzzy lambs. The Easter pals are also perfect for your Easter table setting, of course. Tip: Cut a small notch in the lambs' ears before gluing them on so that you can fold in the ears to make them slightly curved.

How to instructions

1 Protect your work surface and the area around it, because the paint could end up all over.
2 Prime the eggs with Hobbylack.
3 Then spatter the eggs with Hobbylack in other colours. Spatter the paint with a toothbrush or another brush with stiff bristles. Run your finger over the bristles to achieve a spattering effect. The more paint on the brush, the bigger the spatters will be.
4 Let the eggs dry.
5 Add a hanger to the eggs if you like and hang them in the Easter bouquet.

You can give your Easter eggs gorgeous marbling effects by painting and spattering with Hobbylack in different colours. Blend the colours with white Hobbylack if you want lighter colours. Attach a small hanger to your marbled Easter eggs to hang them in your Easter bouquets. Then do this: Pinch together the antenna on the hanger and thread on the little disc. Continue squeezing the antenna together and carefully poke them into the hole on the egg. Make sure to hold the antenna together until they are all the way down.

How to instructions

1 Prime the eggs with gold spray paint. Let dry.
2 Brush the eggs with crackle glaze the thicker the layer, the bigger the cracks will be. Let the glaze dry for at least 2 hours. Drying time depends on the thickness of the coat of glaze.
3 Paint the eggs with Hobbylack in any colour. Use a broad, flat brush and apply long brush strokes up and down the eggs. The cracks will begin to appear almost as soon as you apply the Hobbylack. Do not paint the same place several times, because you will cover the cracks.
4 Let the eggs dry.
5 Fasten a hanger to the eggs and decorate your Easter bouquet.

You can use crackle glaze to make Easter eggs covered in lovely cracks. Place the eggs on a flower stick or wooden skewer so that you have a handle to hold while painting. Apply some adhesive putty around the stick, slightly below the egg, to secure the egg in place. If you want to hang your painted eggs in an Easter bouquet, fasten a small hanger to each one. To do so: Pinch together the antenna on the hanger and thread on the little disc. Continue squeezing the antenna together and carefully poke them into the hole on the egg. Make sure to hold the antenna together until they are all the way down.

How to instructions

1 Add one part water to two parts sugar in a pot and bring to a boil.
2 Let the sugar mixture cool and then apply a coat to the eggs.
3 Add plenty of watercolours here and there.
4 You can mix different colours or use just one.
5 Let the eggs dry and then tie a piece of hemp twine around them.

Painting eggs with watercolours is fun and produces striking results. Remember not to cover the entire egg with paint; leave some areas white. The sugar mixture causes the paint to flow out in beautiful patterns. The result is a lovely, variegated Easter egg for decoration.

How to instructions

1 Pour one colour per mug. About 1-1.5 tbsp of paint, use 4-5 colours and one plastic cup for each colour.
2 Drip water into each paint cup and stir. The paint should just be able to drip off the lolly stick.
3 Pour the different colours into an empty plastic cup, alternating colours in several rounds. DO NOT STIR!
4 Pour half of the paint over one half of the card egg and the other half of the paint over the other half of the egg.
5 Leave to dry for a full day before removing the masking tape and using the egg.

Give your card eggs a unique look with the trendy pouring technique. Perfect as a decoration or to give away as an Easter gift. We've used Hobbylack, paints that are easy to use. For the eggs in the picture, we used Hobbylack Gloss (basic, lilac, purple, yellow, fairy pink & white) but you can choose colours that suit your personal style. You also need a divisible card egg, lolly sticks for stirring and masking tape. Method: Cover the surface where you will be pouring with plastic. Apply masking tape to the rim of the card egg half with the narrow, white thin edge. Otherwise it may be hard to close the egg again if a thick layer of paint gets on it. TIP! Paint the egg beforehand with one colour across the entire surface. Place the egg on an upside down plastic cup so that it "hovers" and the paint can drip down over the edges. Then pour one colour into each cup, drip water into each cup and stir. The paint should just be able to drip off the lolly stick - that means it's perfect! Next, take an empty plastic cup and pour in the different colours; for the best results, you can alternate colours. BUT! DO NOT STIR! Then pour half the paint over one half of the egg, and the rest over the other half. If you did not give the egg a coat of base paint, you can carefully brush down the paint where it hasn't dripped, to cover the whole egg. When you are finished, the egg halves will need to rest for about a day before you can remove the masking tape and fill them with tons of sweets.

How to instructions

Make artful Easter eggs and arrange them in a group to form a beautiful still life. We spray painted card eggs in different shades of Vintage paint and we sprayed the bottom parts of the eggs with gold spray. Then we decorated them with feathers, miniatures, leaves, metallic paper and pompoms. The eggs are decorated with Posca pens, tissue paper etc. An Easter egg as beautiful as this would probably also be an appreciated gift!

How to instructions

1 Spray or paint the lid.
2 Tie ribbon around the lid and use glue on the underside to attach it.
3 Poke pretty little feathers into the ribbon knot. Need to glue? Do it!
4 Finish by gluing on a little Easter bunny.

Make the Easter table extra cheerful with Easter eggs you've decorated yourself! Decorating your own Easter eggs is a fun and easy Easter craft that everyone can do. All you need to begin is a white card egg. Then you can decorate with colourful feathers, beautiful ribbons and maybe an Easter gift hidden inside the eggs for your guests. This is also a lovely gift for your family and friends. Because who wouldn't be delighted by a personalised Easter egg filled with sweets and chocolates?

How to instructions

1 Pour wax into a tall container and melt in a water bath
2 When the wax has melted, add dye
3 Pour in the same amount of water as wax. The water makes the wax rise to the surface so that you can easily dip the egg
4 Dip the egg once and then set aside to dry. If the egg is empty, it will float, so youll need to keep it under using a plant stake
5 To finish, add an egg hanger loop and attach a pretty ribbon. Your eggcellent egg is now ready to hang up!

Eggs dipped in dyed dip wax make stunning Easter decorations. Try it and see for yourself!

How to instructions

1 To begin, carefully clean the surface to be painted with a detergent. Remember not to touch that area once its clean
2 Draw or write on the egg and allow to dry for four hours
3 Then place the egg in the oven, set the oven to 160°C and set the timer for 90 minutes once the oven reaches 160°C. Let cool in the oven with the door open

Painted porcelain eggs are a beautiful Easter decoration, and they are very easy to make. You could even make a few extra to present as Easter gifts! We used a brush pen intended for glass and porcelain.

How to instructions

1 First, paint the card egg your favourite colours (in the picture, we used white and purple)
2 Make the ears, eyes and nose out of pearl dough and let them dry
3 Glue the pieces to the card egg
4 Last, glue on a little pompom as a tail
5 Fill the egg with homemade sweets and present it to a loved one

With a little Hobbylack, pearl dough and imagination, you can make an adorable, unique Easter egg to give to someone you care about. Why not turn it into an Easter bunny, who always brings Easter eggs anyway? Best of all, you can make everything from the egg to the sweets at home yourself. What a treat it is to receive an Easter egg on Easter Sunday with sweets made especially for you. Our DIY Candy & Tools kit will let you surprise someone even more with homemade Easter treats. Panduro wishes you a super sweet Easter!

How to instructions

1 Paint the card eggs with Hobbylack. If you like pastels, you can blend different colours to achieve the right shade. For the lamb, we blended white and grey Hobbylack
2 Cut out ears, wings, beaks, noses, feet, paws and fringe from hobby felt, hobby card and yarn. The fuzz on the lambs head is made out of white pompom balls
3 Glue all pieces onto the animals and finish by gluing on plastic eyes
4 Draw on mouths, eyelashes and other details with a Penol pen or another permanent marker. Now its time to name your Easter animals!

Card eggs can be used for so much more than just Easter eggs. With a little imagination and some materials, you can transform them into an Easter-themed bunch of animals. And who said you have to make realistic animals? Why not switch their bodies and heads, and make whimsical new creatures, like a bunny-lamb, a bunny-chick or a chick-lamb?

How to instructions

Tissue paper is a striking way to dye and decorate eggs. You can try two different methods: DYE WITH WATER: To dye eggs, use slightly more vibrantly coloured sheets. Start by cutting or tearing pieces (or designs). Then soak the egg in water; you can spray it with a spray bottle. Attach the tissue paper pieces to the egg and spray a little more water on top. Then let the egg and paper dry completely. Once dry, remove the paper to reveal the dyed egg. DECORATE WITH DECOUPAGE: Another option is to use decoupage varnish. Cut out paper pieces/designs. Apply a coat of varnish to the egg. Then attach the designs with a dry brush. Apply varnish on top of the designs.

How to instructions

There are so many fun and beautiful ways to decorate eggs. Here are a few examples that we hope inspire you. We have used spray paint, glitter, metallic paper, felt and paper. If an egg breaks, you can still use it as a pendant with something sweet inside, or on top of a wooden chick. We drew the eyes for the chick and rabbit with a thin, permanent pen. Using our smart hangers, it's easy to hang your decorated eggs: stick the ends through the shell, and add a dab of glue to the plate to keep it in place. They come in a 9-pack in silver and gold-coloured metal.

How to instructions

Plastic eggs in pastel colours are perfect for Easter. These have a little extra colour from watercolours and simple decor with rub-ons. Watercolours work well on slightly more matt surfaces, like these plastic eggs in a pastel blend (i.e., not on all plastic eggs), real eggs and wooden eggs. Paint, splash, and let the colour drip a little. Let dry completely. Then cut out and rub the design onto the egg. If you will be hanging the plastic eggs outside, we do not recommend using watercolour paint, but rub-ons work well.

How to instructions

Paper tape is a striking, very easy way to decorate. Here, we have used white eggs. Paint the eggs if you like, or leave them neutral. Cut or tear off pieces and tape them to the eggs in different patterns. Then simply add a hanger and a ribbon and they are ready to hang up. Finished!

How to instructions

The gift of a personalised decorated egg, filled with goodies, is bound to be a real treat for the lucky recipient. Our card eggs are easy to paint, spray and decorate. This egg was sprayed with vintage spray and gold spray in several layers for a smooth finish. Once the paint is fully dry, you can write a message on it. We wrote our text with a black Posca pen. Give your imagination free rein with any of our many items for decorating your egg using glue if you want more besides text.

How to instructions

Make a variety of painted eggs and draw lovely patterns with Sharpie markers. Sharpies are easy to colour with and dry very quickly. We especially recommend the thinnest pen, Ultra Fine. To mount the hanger: Apply a dab of glue around the hole in the eggshell. Carefully apply the hanger by first moving the little metal hat down, so that the "legs" end up as close as possible (otherwise it will be hard to get them in the little hole without cracking the shell). Carefully stick the legs in the hole and simultaneously push back the hat.

How to instructions

1 Make the bunny by painting your egg with matt Hobbylack in the shade light pink. Cut out ears and teeth from pink and white design sheets. Glue the ears to the lid of the egg and the teeth to the inside of the lid, so that they stick out when the egg is closed. Glue on a pink pompom as a nose and a white pompom as a tail, and glue the eyes to the bunny
2 Make the chick by painting your egg with matt Hobbylack in the shade yellow. Cut out wings from craft rubber and glue them to the sides of the egg. Glue feathers to the underside/back of the egg, so that they stand straight up when the egg is closed. Paint a wadding nose orange and glue it to the chick as a beak. Glue eyes to the chick. Last, bend two legs out of black pipe cleaners and glue them to a short side of the egg.
3 Create a dazzlingly floral egg by painting your egg with matt Hobbylack in lime green. Glue craft rubber flowers to your egg and decorate with rhinestones

An Easter egg can be so much more than just an egg. With a little imagination and the right materials, you can transform it into your favourite animal, or even an imaginary animal! Here, we've made three glittery and dazzlingly colourful eggs for inspiration.

How to instructions

Add a luxurious touch to your Easter eggs with glitter and fill them with treats. First, we painted the three card eggs one colour with Hobbylack and let dry; then we sprinkled them with glitter. GREEN EGG: apply double-sided tape in stripes and sprinkle with glitter (701482). BLUE EGG: form small circles with removable tape runner and sprinkle with glitter (701482). WHITE EGG: brush with Oceanlack and sprinkle with glitter (701482); let dry and repeat once more.

How to instructions

Dye eggs with the marbling technique - they look fantastic! Paint plastic eggs and you won't risk them breaking. METHOD: Cover the work surface with plastic (paint drops will leave stains). Use the bucket the paints came in for the dye bath. Fill the bucket with water; choose the colours you want and drop them in with the pipette. Pull the paint around with a toothpick so the colours blend a little. Dip the egg into the dye bath and hang up to dry (use the gloves included in the kit). Dip the eggs one at a time. Hang the eggs on a stick or something similar. NOTE! Cover the area beneath the eggs with plastic; excess paint will drip off. Let hang overnight and dry. Tip! Place a wooden stick across two jars or something similar as a drying rack.

Paint cute Easter eggs and make them irresistible with hobbylack in pastel colours. We painted donuts on white eggs and ice cream on brown eggs; a few simple strokes will transform them into ice cream cones. Paint the ice cream with pink paint, then dot on "sprinkles" in various colours. We have real, blown-out eggs available in 6-packs that can be painted on directly.

How to instructions

Doodling is fun and can be done on almost everything. Everyone can doodle; there are no rules for how it should look. You can draw directly on eggs with Sharpie pens. You can colour designs if you like, but remember not to get too close to the black outline, which could cause it to smudge. Black eggs are easy to make with spray paint. Let dry and then colour with a thin, white Posca pen, which doesn't dry as quickly as the Sharpie pens. Be careful not to touch just-painted designs.

How to instructions

Paint Easter eggs gold! It's easy to do with an egg painting holder, a brush and gold Hobbylack. If you want to try a more advanced craft, you can make gorgeous golden eggs with Fimo leaf metal and glue (instructions included in the package). See materials below.

Shimmering metal eggs bring a sense of luxury to the Easter table. METHOD: Fill a glass with warm water and drop in the paint tubes. Let them soak in the warm water until the paint liquefies. Cut the paint tubes apart with a pair of scissors. Put on the accompanying gloves and snip off the tops of the tubes. Take the warm eggs from the pot and dry them off. To begin with, drip about 15 drops of the lightest colour into the palm of your hand (with gloves on). Carefully rotate the egg in the paint. Let the egg dry for a moment, but not completely; it should feel sticky. Wrap metal foil around the egg and press gently so that it sticks. Pull off the foil. The metal is now stuck to the sticky paint. HAVE AT HOME: Warm freshly hard-boiled eggs, scissors, protective plastic, heat-tolerant glass.
