Decoupage Eggs
Spruce up Easter eggs using paper napkins,
colored magazines, or designed papers. Cut them into strips and glue them around the
egg. Let it dry. Then apply a final coat to make it glossy.

5. Ombre Eggs
Give some eggs a chic
look by dying them in different tones. The trick is to soak them in varying
amount of dye and time. This way you can get dark to lighter shades. To do
this, place the egg in a small cup. Fill it up with the liquid dye that is
enough to cover the bottom third of the egg. After 5 minutes, add water until
the top third part of the egg. Then, you will see a lighter tone. After 3
minutes, add more water to cover the whole egg. Then, you get a more pale
shade.

6. Silk Tie-Dyed Easter Eggs
When you want silky
looking eggs, try this craft. You need 100% silk tie. Cut a piece that is
enough to cover an egg. Make sure that the right side faces the surface of the
egg. Wrap them smoothly and tightly using a thread to get a clear print. Then,
wrap them again with a light colored and lightweight fabric. Boil them for 20
minutes in water with vinegar. I suggest
that only moms do the said steps. Kids may do the unwrapping after the eggs cool.
Then, polish it with oil to get a shinier look.

Personalized Eggs
Nothing’s more fun
than putting your name or initials on the egg. You can use foam alphabets or
felt stickers to spell out your name. Another way is to use a candle to write
on the shell. Then, the name appears after soaking it in the dye. Stick other
fancy stuffs to decorate these eggs.
In fact, there are
million ways to put some twists on your Easter eggs. So flaunt your
creativeness this Easter Sunday. Share the moment with your kids to make it a
fun-filled day.
