No Easter basket, no Easter eggs

The kids are running through the yard, looking for much sought-after trinkets hidden by their parents. We're not just talking about sweets, but about traditional Easter eggs as well. After all, there’s no celebrating Easter without first lovingly painting different designs on eggs. Here is some inspiration on how to make Easter decorations with little effort.

Less is more: two pens, one great result

Sometimes it doesn’t take much to turn a simple egg into a real eye-catcher. Minimalism is often enough. Our instructions show how easy it is to craft Easter decorations with just two pens. These Easter decorations are easy to create with a metallic pen and a permanent marker.

Hollowed-out brown eggs are best suited to a minimalist style, as they look especially good with white metallic pen. Whether it's flowers, polka dots, or wild circles – there are no limits to your own creativity. Also popular is the black and white design. All you need are hollowed-out white eggs and our Lumocolor permanent pen 318. It works well with graphic elements like lines, triangles, or a familiar chequered pattern. Then you can either hang the eggs up or put them in an Easter basket. It’s never been easier to craft adorable Easter decorations.

Crafting Easter decorations with children

Why should adults be to only ones who have a say in decorations? Most children love to create little works of art with FIMO kids. It doesn’t take much to make our sculpted Easter eggs: Modelling clay, cutting tools, and motif rollers provide the basis for beautiful, colourful Easter eggs you can hang up – ideal for an Easter bouquet from your garden! Kids can let off creative steam while making Easter decorations.

Of course, it doesn’t always have to be FIMO, either. Crafting Easter decorations out of paper is an evergreen option that always looks nice. Whether it’s flowers made from paper plates to hang in the windows or a chic flower garland to decorate the walls, bright colours will bring spring straight from the garden and into your child’s room.
