While browsing in the "addictive" world of Pinterest,
I saw some beautiful decoupaged eggs.
These are perfect for Spring/Easter Decorating.
I thought I would try my own spin for this creative idea.
I used:
Regular plastic Easter eggs.
Scrap booking Paper.
Material torn into strips.
Mod Podge.
Paint Brush
Be prepared to get your hands sticky.
For the decoupaged Eggs......
For the decoupaged Eggs......
I cut the paper into several small pieces.
Using the mod podge,
I begin to paste the cut pieces on the eggs.
Be patient......
When you have covered the egg completely,
coat the entire egg with Mod Podge.
Allow it to dry......
Display them in a lovely basket.
I love how these turned out.
Look close.....
Can you see the names on the eggs?
These were done in a black toile paper.
I also wrapped several in material.
I tore the material into long, thin strips.
I hot glued the end and starting wrapping.
You may need to use the hot glue randomly to hold the material into place.
These were much easier than the paper ones.
No sticky hands...
Be sure to hot glue the end.....
I love the look of the ragged edge on the material.
Here they are........
The ones below I bought at Hobby Lobby.
Half price I might add.......
They are done in a paper that looks like a brown paper sack.
No cutting, tearing or gluing.
Just open the bag.
Plop them into a basket with grass.....
Done.
They look a basket of fresh brown eggs
taken right out of the nest.
Very Prim or Farmhouse decor.
Wherever you are today....
Let your creative juices flow........
Blessings!

Hi Patty,
ReplyDeleteAll the eggs look beautiful. I especially love the ones with the names on them. These are all very clever ideas! However, the open the bag and pour into bowl is more on my talent level! LOL

ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the inspiration..

I was just sitting here looking at an old, old book and wondering what to do with it. Decoupage on eggs!!!! Can't wait to do it. I also like the toile ones. Nothing better than a basket of eggs. And I just got one of those wire chicken egg carriers. You know what I'll be doing the next few days!!!!
