Marshmallow Peeps are everywhere! We’ve got 14 bloggers with all kinds of recipes and crafts for marshmallow Peeps! Today I’m sharing a craft to make Marshmallow Peep Hair Clip.
I tried a few different ways to seal Peeps to use them as a hair clip. I first tried using acrylic and lacquer spray paint, but neither worked. The next thing I tried was Mod Podge Dimensional Magic, and it worked! So here’s how I created these hair clips.

How to make a Marshmallow PEEPs Hair Clip
Supplies:
- Marshmallow Peeps, stale
- Mod Podge Dimensional Magic
- 1/4 inch grosgrain
- hot glue gun
- hair clip
Before I make these hair clips, I leave the Peeps out for a few days to get really stale and hard.
Then, I paint about 3-5 layers of Mod Podge Dimensional Magic on the Peeps. It did this over a period of a couple days. I would paint it on in the morning, then let it dry all day, then paint another layer that night, and did this over a couple days.
When the Peeps were ready, I then got the hair clips ready by covering them with grosgrain ribbon with hot glue.
I chose a cute pink polka dot ribbon to coordinate.
Then, I flipped the Peeps over and hot glued the clip to the back.
Once the hot glue was dry, my youngest daughter couldn’t wait to model it.
I think it came out so cute! I just love it! And when we go anywhere people just love it, too!
Even though I covered and sealed the Peeps very thoroughly, we will just be keeping this until Easter.

If I win the Target gift card I will use it to buy a car seat for my grandson. I have to pick him up in another state in May because both his parents will be serving in the Military durring that time. His dad deployed to Korea when he was 5 months old and his mom is going out of the country one month before his 1st birthday. I really hope he starts walking before she goes it would break her heart to miss that milestone. I have scoured Craig’s list, face book and other thrift options to find a car seat but man are they hard to come by at a low price so the gift card would be a blessing to a bit of a stretched budget. Boy are babies expensive these days formula, diapers, plane tickets and not to mention day care is omg expensive these days. I am thankful for the opportunity to have my Baby bear while his parents are away and I am in no way complaining, However I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed on this one
I love peeps! They are my absolutely favorite Easter candy. I can’t wait to make the peeps clips I know my nursing home patients would love it. I am also considering making a peeps wreath. Thanks for the amazing tutorial.
You might check stores like Kid to Kid or Once Upon a Child or similar child resale stores. Don’t ever buy a car seat from craigslist, garage sale, or a thrift store. You never know if it’s been recalled or was in an accident, which could cause it to be weakened and unsafe. Those child and baby resale stores always make sure car seats they accept are not recalled. Walmart also frequently has a “special buy” on some of their car seats.
Wow, thanks I had not thought of that.
I need an SD card for my camera, and probably a new bathing suit too.
I would stock up on household supplies and Starbucks K cups, Target has the best price on them.
