A Punk Rock Easter

Please enjoy this throwback to my favorite DIY Easter project. Inspired by the music from my youth.

Gabba Gabba Hey! It’s time for an old fashioned Punk Rock Easter. Slip on your combat boots. Throw on that kilt, and dye your hair pink like the Easter Bunny. Hard-boiled and hardcore, these punk inspired eggs are sure to make your kids Sid and Nancy scream for joy. – Jill Topol

SUPPLIES

1. Hard Boiled Eggs
2. Easter Egg Dye (I used PAAS Brand)
3. A Colored Newspaper (try looking at financial & foreign papers)
4. Safety Pins
5. Color Copies of your Fave Music Icons
6. Mod Podge (Matte Version)
7. Sponge Brush
8. Easter Basket

Dye your hard-boiled eggs pink, purple and yellow. While your eggs are drying, cut out your music icon images. You must cut slits all around your images in order for them to lay flat on your eggs. Remember you’re pasting a flat image on a curved surface!  Cover the back of your images with Mod Podge using your sponge brush and adhere to your eggs. Next cover the eggs in a thin coat of Mod Podge and let dry.

To make your punk rock grass, simply take your colored newspaper and run it through a paper shredder. Decorate your basket with safety pins and you’re ready to rock!
