Celebrate Easter

Easter! What's the first thing that pops in to your mind when we say Easter? Easter Eggs!. Brightly decorated eggs are a symbol many of us relate to with Easter. And now It’s that time again – time to gather those eggs and think about how you want to decorate them for Easter. This year, why don't we take these eggs one step further with some different decorating techniques. We've compiled a few designs that we feel are super good-looking, quite different, sure to add color and spunk, easy and inexpensive to create, and we believe all supplies used are easily available from the supermarket and craft store. Come check these out:

Blackboard Eggs

Write messages or random message on eggshells with this great idea from Oleander and Palm: Coat eggs with a layer of chalkboard paint and let your creativity do the talking. If you fall out of love with a pattern or picture, wash the surface and start over.

Washi Tape Eggs

Put metallic, patterned and pastel Washi tape to good use with this cute no-dye egg-decorating option from Chelsea at Lovely Indeed. Cut the tape into different (as crazy as you can get) shapes and stick to egg surfaces.

Black and White Eggs

All you need for this awesome monochromatic look is a fine-tipped black permanent marker. At the blog Obviously Sweet, variations of dotted and striped patterns make each egg look unique. But hey... it's up to you... take your marker and go to town with the designs of you choice.
