March 29, 2012 by Stefanie Girard

Now that St. Patrick’s Day is a glorious green memory, it’s time to shift gears and embrace all things pastel, playful, and spring-inspired—yes, Easter decorating is officially in full swing! If you’re looking for a fresh, creative craft to welcome the season, you’ll love this colorful and eco-friendly idea featured over at Craftside.

Their latest tutorial shows you how to make Pop Art-style Easter egg magnets using materials you likely already have on hand—recycled scrapbook paper catalogs and simple craft magnets. This project is not only a great way to upcycle leftover paper scraps, but it’s also inspired by the vibrant creativity found in the book Art Lab for Kids. The result? Fun, modern Easter decorations that are perfect for your fridge, bulletin board, or even as small handmade gifts.

The step-by-step guide makes it super easy for kids and adults alike to get in on the fun, and you can personalize your egg designs to suit your style—bold and bright, soft and pastel, or anything in between.

Whether you’re crafting with your children or just looking for a quick, satisfying DIY project to brighten your home, these Easter egg magnets are a perfect way to celebrate spring with a pop of color and creativity. Want more eco-friendly Easter craft ideas?
