For kids (and grown-ups too), an Easter basket is a must-have when heading off on an Easter egg hunt! This is why we are serving up this brand new tutorial for your very own original and bespoke DIY chocolate basket using our essential Signo roller ball pens! Ideal to head off and enjoy a timeless moment with the kids ;)

Let’s get started!

 

For this tutorial, you will need:

  • A pair of scissors

  • A glue stick

 

1st step: The materials

To make your very own chocolate basket, you will need the downloadable template to print out, a tube of glue, pair of scissors, and finally our SIGNO pastel rollerball pens. We advise you to print out your template on a relatively thick sheet of paper to be sturdy enough to hold all that chocolate ;)

SIGNO rollerball pens are genuinely creative leisure tools and perfect for adding a touch of colour to your bespoke basket! Whether you opt for a white sheet of paper or colourful paper, they will be perfect for the job thanks to their bright and lively colours!

2nd step: Get drawing

Firstly, using the Signo rollerball of your choice, draw eggs on the 4 sides of your template. For this step, we have used pastel violet. Feel free to vary the drawings; circles, lines, or even bunny rabbits and hearts, the choice is yours!

3rd step: Colour it in

Then, still using your Signo rollerball pens, colour in the eggs by alternating between the different colours. From pastel yellow to pink, or even pastel blue, there are 8 colours to choose from! Dense, thick and bright, they guarantee a clear and stunning finish ;)
