Put down the food coloring down and step away from the Easter egg.
At least, that’s what you’ll want to do after seeing these inventive ways to decorate Easter eggs…above and beyond your typical dye!
Some of these ideas are so impressive that I wish I had thought of them on my own.
Then again, I think I might be slacking in the talent department to be able to pull these off!
Check out some the most unique and amazing ways people have stepped up their Easter egg decorating game.
1. With rainbow clay
Why would you ever choose dye over the possibility to create a 3D rainbow?
2. With itsy bitsy paintings
Each of these eggs was handcrafted by contemporary artists, designers and jewelers. I’m not sure whether I’d want to frame them or sell them. Amazing!
3. With weird materials
These wild eggs are from the same group of artists mentioned above. These particular designs were crafted from materials you would never consider, like mirrors, wires and ceramic.
4. With candle wax
That’s right…believe it or not, these Ukrainian style eggs were created by using candle wax. I have no words.
5. With gold leaf
As beautiful as the eggs look, this is actually one design I think I could pull off on my own. Just maybe…
6. With embroidery
Somehow they managed to get a needle in and out of this eggshell without it breaking. This fact alone deserves a round of applause.
7. With the most steady hands known to man?
And if threading a needle through an eggshell wasn’t incredible enough, this artist goes ahead and makes a full on egg sculpture. HOW is this possible?!
8. With washi
Popular in Japan, these eggs are made from origami paper decoupaged onto an egg. So I’d say this is another DIY I’d be willing to take down.
9. With Dad’s tie
I knew my husband’s old ties would come in handy for something. I just had no idea it would be on an Easter egg!
10. With magic
