Make Easter Magnets Shaped Just Like Peeps

Make these unique DIY Easter magnets using cookie cutters shaped like Peeps! These are so cute and easy – even a kid can make them.

Skills Required: Beginner. You don’t need any prior crafting skills to make these magnets. You’ll be rolling out clay and cutting it out with cookie cutters. It’s just that simple!

Easter can’t really be Easter without Peeps! I know there are some of you that might disagree with me – but I’m a huge fan of this sugary, marshmallow-y candy. I heart Peeps of all shapes, colors, sizes, and flavors.

As I was browsing the aisles of Michaels recently, I realized I’m not the only one – because now there are Peeps cookie cutters! I had to buy them and make a craft, and that is how these magnets came about. These are a great Easter craft or clay craft for kids . . . because who doesn’t love Peeps?

Now I can enjoy Peeps all year round with these fun and easy magnets on my fridge. These are the cutest Easter decor and you’ll get so many comments!

You can also use the same idea to make gift tags (just punch a hole in the top before you bake). Fun, right? Here’s how I made these cuties.

Peeps Easter Magnets

Gather These Supplies

Peeps cookie cutters set
Polymer clay – pink, bright yellow, brown
Clay roller (a rolling pin will work too)
Magnets
Craft glue
Cookie sheet (for baking clay)

Rolling out hot pink clay with a clay roller

Buy polymer clay in traditional Peeps colors – bright pink, bright yellow, etc. I also bought some brown clay for the eyes. Warm up the clay in your hands by rolling it around, then use a clay roller or a regular rolling pin to roll out a thin layer of clay on your surface.

Press the cookie cutters into the clay; repeat.

Clay shapes cut out and placed on a baking sheet

Move the clay pieces to a cookie sheet – use a spatula if sticking becomes an issue.

Before you throw these bad boys in the oven, give them eyes and give the bunny a nose. I just rolled little bits of clay in my fingers. When it’s time to bake, follow the instructions on the clay package.
