Glitter Easter Eggs

A little glitter is never a bad thing. If you want to color your eggs and make them just a bit different, glitter is a great choice. Making Easter eggs glittery is not difficult and is a project that kids can do. You just have to choose the colors that you want to dye your eggs and then select glitter that will mesh with those colors. A little glue will hold the glitter in place and give you sparkly and beautiful eggs that any kids will adore.

Sprinkle Easter Eggs

Kids love sprinkles and they will absolutely love these sprinkle eggs. With a few nonpareil sprinkles, you can create colorful and gorgeous eggs that are sure to catch everyone's attention at your egg hunt. Note that you do have to use glue on these to get the sprinkles to stick so it is important that you make sure no one eats the sprinkles afterwards. You can use any type or color of sprinkles that you want to create beautiful eggs that are as unique as they are fun.

Painterly Easter Eggs

You don't have to stick with the traditional way of dyeing your eggs. You can paint them instead if you like. Acrylic paints work very well for making unique Easter eggs and you can paint anything that you want on them. Match pastel colors for a really spring-like look or create your own little picture scene if you want. This is a great way for older children to enjoy coloring those eggs this year.

Golden Easter Eggs

Instead of dyeing the entire egg, why not just glue pictures of gold onto it? Kids will love making these eggs that are as beautiful to look at as they are fun to hunt for. You just have to choose the images that you want to glue on and then trace them from a template and cut. These will work with plain white eggs or you can dye the eggs and then use the images – whatever you want.

Black and White Easter Eggs

Black dye and white paint put together make beautiful and very elegant Easter eggs. If you have an inclination to do something really different, why not make all of your eggs black and white? You can stencil in different pictures or designs with white paint and the overall look is absolutely gorgeous. These would be great for an adult themed Easter egg hunt.

You will need to select different colors and designs of Washi tape, which you should be able to find at your favorite department or home improvement store. Then just go to town decorating those eggs however you want.

Ombre Easter Eggs

If you want to use your dyed Easter eggs for decorating but you don't want just plain dyed eggs sitting around, think Ombre. This gradual change in color hue is beautiful and will look great when displayed on a table or mantel. You will need to choose the color for your design and then just dye the eggs a bit darker as you go along. The gradual color looks great and you can mix and match your colors if you want.
