How to make

Step-1

Start by painting the entire polystyrene egg with a colour of your choice. Allow this first layer of paint to dry completely and then paint a second or even third layer of paint.

Step-2

Whilst the polystyrene egg is drying, you can prepare the shapes you will be pinning onto the egg. Using a selection of card and punches, punch out a variety of shapes. In this case, more is better as you will need a lot of pieces to cover the surface the polystyrene egg.

Step-3

By this stage, you will have lots of different shapes. Have a think about the pattern you could create on the surface of the polystyrene egg before you pin them.

Step-4

Pin all your punched shapes in place.

Step-5

And there you have it, one pretty Poly Punched Egg!
