EASTER EGGS - DECORATE AND DYE OPTIONS
You can have so much fun decorating Easter eggs - it's not just for kids! Here are a few suggestions for both decorating and dying. I had to lump all of the decorating ideas together because I couldn't list the different items in the ingredients. The ideas are easy, just take a look! I hope you find something that can express your artistic flair! Enjoy!

Steps:
- DECORATING THE EGGS: Wrap different sized elastic bands around eggs. Wrap them snugly but not tight enough to break the eggs -- OR tie string around eggs in a random or set pattern -- OR use a white crayon to write words, make a design or pattern on your eggs -- OR place tape on eggs to create a pattern or stripes around the eggs -- OR place shaped stickers on the eggs. They can be shapes, letters, numbers, etc.
- DYING THE EGGS: For each color, mix hot water, vinegar and food coloring in a heat proof, narrow, deep dish, such as a canning jar. Mix the colors to your preference. Use 20 drops of just one color or combine colors to create many different shades and hues.
- Using tongs, submerge eggs for 3-5 minutes for a lighter shade and up to 10 minutes for a deeper shade. Remove with tongs.
- DRYING THE EGGS: You can set the eggs on wax paper if you can set the eggs on the elastics, tape or stickers. Let eggs dry for 1 to 2 hours and refrigerate -- OR you can poke many flat head pins on a thick piece of cardboard or foam board. Set eggs on top of the pins. Let eggs dry for 1 to 2 hours.
- Remove whatever decorating items you used and refrigerate.

46 WAYS TO DECORATE EASTER EGGS - THE SPRUCE CRAFTS
From thesprucecrafts.com
Estimated Reading Time 9 mins
- Marbled Easter Eggs. For a pretty twist on traditional dye methods, try marbling your Easter eggs! A bit of nail polish in bright spring colors, a container of water, and a toothpick will do the trick.
- Typography Easter Eggs. Channel the cuteness of Valentine's candy hearts for these eggs–dye or paint a base color, then use contact paper snipped into letters to stick on fun messages.
- Watercolor Floral Easter Eggs. Impressionists take heed: this tutorial requires a bit of artistry, but the end result is absolutely dreamy. Use food coloring to paint flowers onto eggs' shells, then enhance with a black permanent marker.
- Metallic Gold Foil Easter Eggs. Use gold foil for a modern, fresh take on classic Easter egg dyeing. If you use faux eggs, you can have these as decor for many Easters to come!
- Emoji Easter Eggs. Give your Easter eggs a bit of personality by adding emoji faces! Get creative and try other emojis too: how cute would the Bunny Eared Girls look painted on a pastel egg?
- Indigo Marbled Easter Eggs. Nail polish dripped into cool water gets marbled onto eggs in this tutorial. The final product is reminiscent of shibori–the Japanese indigo dyeing technique.
- Confetti Easter Eggs. An Easter tradition in Mexico, Cascarón, or hollowed-out eggs filled with confetti, make a super special surprise for children. This helpful step-by-step teaches how to hollow your eggs, then dry, paint, and fill.
- Foliage Eggs. Forage for wildflowers and greens to bring the freshness of Spring inside using this Mod Podge tutorial. There's no hand-painting involved here, so crafters of all skill levels can create a beautiful egg (or twelve).
- Fruit Slice Easter Eggs. Easter eggs take inspiration from fresh fruits here, and this tutorial also includes a great suggestion for an edible (but highly pigmented) paint alternative.
- Blooming Eggs. Pastel dyed shells provide the perfect backdrop for a sweet little bloom in these 3D pieces of edible art. Use hot glue to attach flowers (faux or real) to the egg for a bountiful bouquet of little beauties.
