Tired of the traditional Easter egg decorations? Try these Easter EggDecoratingIdeas five ideas to add variety and creativity to your Easter egg decorating this year!
Whipped Cream – You can get a cool, tie-dyed effect by adding a few drops of food coloring to a bowl of whipped cream and lightly swirl using a toothpick. Roll your eggs in the sticky rainbow mixture and let sit for 45 minutes to an hour before rinsing with water.

Food Dyes – Don’t like using food coloring? Try blending up foods like blueberries, raspberries or beets and mixing them with water and a little vinegar. These pigments will take a lot longer to set, so let the eggs rest in their colors overnight.
Patterned Prints - Stamp out a pattern of cuteness using mini rubber stamps dipped in the dye. Make sure you choose tiny stamps so you can get the entire shape on the egg’s curved surface.
Chalkboard Messages - For a modern take, nix the pastels and spray eggs with black chalkboard paint, then use chalk pens to create designs or write messages. Découpage – Brush a thin layer of glue over the eggs, add dried flowers, paper cutouts, glitter, etc., and cover with another layer of glue. Need a beginner’s guide? Click here!
