Make It: Decoupage Easter Eggs

Most of our chickens lay brown eggs so we are always looking for fun ways for the kids to color them. This one worked well, transforming our darker eggs into colorful Easter eggs.

Materials

  • Hard-boiled eggs, any color 
  • 1 tablespoon glue, thinned with a few drops of water
  • Paintbrush
  • Colorful napkins or crepe paper
  • Scissors

Directions

  1. Have your child cut patterns stripes or images out of the paper napkins.
  2. Dab some glue onto the egg, and then apply the paper cutout. Brush a little more glue on.3. Let the glue dry thoroughly.
