Faux Sugar Egg Easter Decor

Easter· Paper Mache· Spring

As a child, my favorite Easter craft was diorama eggs.  I loved paper mache and each year I would make my own paper mache egg that I would fill with little toy chicks and plastic eggs.  I decided to make a grown up version this year, and styled my paper mache egg to look like a sugar egg.  Thanks to Mod Podge’s Collage Clay, it’s easy to recreate the look of sugar and icing without the calories (or the sugar ants!)

Faux-sugar-egg-decor-Crafts-UnleashedSupplies needed to make your own faux sugar egg:supply-list

  • 4 inch Paper Mache Egg
  • Wooden Egg Stand
  • Chalky Finish Paint (white, pink, light green, etc.)
  • Mod Podge Collage Clay
  • Flocked Rabbits
  • Green Festive Yarn or Paper Shred
  • Miniature Baskets
  • Hot Glue

Step one. Paint the paper mache eggs and wooden stands.  Hot glue the egg to a stand.

Faux-sugar-egg-decor-Crafts-Unleashed-11Step two. Trace a circle or oval onto the painted egg and cut out the shape with a sharp X-Acto knife. The inside of the paper mache egg is plastic so be careful while cutting.

Faux-sugar-egg-decor-Crafts-Unleashed-12Step three. Use Mod Podge Collage Clay to embellish the egg.  You use it the same way you use an icing bag.  Choose a tip (each box comes with 3 tips) and pipe the clay onto the egg.

Faux-sugar-egg-decor-Crafts-Unleashed-13Step four. Once the collage clay has hardened, decorate the inside of your sugar egg. Fill the egg with yarn, bunnies, and baskets.

Faux-sugar-egg-decor-Crafts-Unleashed-2You could also fill the eggs with chicks, Easter eggs, or anything else you like.  Maybe even put a battery operated tea light inside and light it up!  Have fun crafting and creating!
