20 Creative Ways to Decorate Easter Eggs

With Easter upon us I thought it would be fun so share some of my favorite egg decorating ideas that I have come across. With so many crafting sites and inspirational photos at our fingertips, it’s time to dump the store-bought colored dyes and dive into some more creative egg decorating endeavors.

I’m not gonna lie, I haven’t decorated eggs in years but these photos have certainly motivated me to have some fun with eggs this weekend!

1. Sharpie Easter Eggs via Obviously Sweet  – Simple and Affordable, just use a sharpie and your imagination to create the look you want.

 

 

2. Melted Crayon Easter Eggs via Spoonful – we have all seen the melted photo artwork, but now it’s time to bring that idea to Easter eggs.

 

3. Onion Skin Dyed Easter Eggs via Scissors and Spoons – This may take a little more elbow grease but the results are really neat.
