Add Some Disney Magic To Your Easter Egg Decorating This Year
With the kids home at school, we here at MickeyBlog have been looking for ways to keep our kids entertained. We Easter just around the corner, we think a great project is to start decorating those eggs with a big dose of Disney Magic.
Disney Family is a fantastic resource brimming with Easter ideas! To help you make those eggs, we rounded-up some awesome templates to provide you with some EGG-cellent inspiration. Let’s take a look!
Pluto Easter Egg
What You’ll Need
- Hardboiled brown egg (or wooden egg painted golden brown)
- Pluto Template – pluto-easter-egg-craft-template-SP-0312_FDCOM
- Ruler
- Scissors
- Cardstock (beige or golden brown, white, and black)
- Stapler
- Pencil
- Black permanent marker
- Glue dots
- Scrap of green craft paper
Instructions
Step 1: Roll an 8.5- by 2-inch piece of beige or golden brown cardstock into a tube, making the diameter just wide enough for the narrower end of the egg to nestle in. Staple the tube where the paper overlaps. Pencil simple lines on the front of the tube to depict Pluto’s chest, legs, and paws and then trace over the lines with black marker.
Step 2: Pencil a wide V-shape line on the upper egg. Trace over the line with marker. Set the egg atop the tube.Print the template on white cardstock and cut out the pieces. Use the muzzle piece to cut out the same shape from beige or golden brown cardstock. Glue the nose onto the muzzle and then draw on a mouth. Glue the muzzle to the bottom of the eye piece.
Step 3: Glue the eye portion of the assembled face to the front of the egg, but leave the muzzle free to overlap the outer tube slightly.
Step 4: Use the ear template piece to cut out a pair of Pluto ears from black cardstock. Fold the ear tabs, as shown, and glue them to the sides of the egg.
Step 5: Finally, glue a thin strip of green craft paper around the tube for Pluto’s collar.
