Make Your Own Easter Egg with a Surprise
To start, you'll need a cardboard egg made using the papier-mâché technique. This egg is an ideal blank for further decorating.
First, we'll paint the egg. You can use KREUL Nature eco-friendly paint, which is gentle on the environment.

Since we're decorating the egg with foil, we'll prepare it by applying decoupage glue. We'll get metallic and transfer foils ready to decorate the egg. Cut out a design you like from the transparent part and remove the protective layer.

Using a wooden stick or a hard tool, transfer the motif onto the edge of the Easter egg.
Now we'll remove the top layer of the foil.
Tip: If you're not sure you're doing it right, the back of the metallic foil package has clear, easy-to-follow photo instructions. :)

Slowly place the foil around the edge of the egg and rub it firmly with the wooden stick. Carefully peel the foil away. If you did it correctly, parts of the foil should stay around the edge of the egg.

Easter egg can be decorated in many different ways. Whether you leave one side light or divide the egg in another way, you can still decorate it with foil as we showed you. When painting, you can also use masking tape.

Once the whole egg is decorated, just grab a few treats, put them inside, and place the Easter egg where you want it.

We hope you enjoy decorating it as much as you enjoy what you hide inside it.
See you for the next creative project!
