Easter is also the time when Easter eggs are painted and decorated.

We have four artistic ideas for you to customize the eggs.

It is simply part of Easter: Easter eggs as a decorative element or to paint and decorate the Easter baskets.

Whether old or young, this tradition is fun.

So how about some ideas on how to decorate the eggs this year?

Paint Easter eggs with padding foil

Maybe you still have some cushioning foil in stock that you can spare for painting the Easter eggs.

Apply the paint to the foil and gently roll the surface of the eggs over it.

This trick simply creates a lot of dots on the egg.

Try

to make the Easter egg even more individual.

For some, it is also great fun to crush the padding film afterwards.

Paint Easter eggs using the serviette technique

This variant is primarily intended for Easter eggs that are intended to serve as decoration.

In this case, due to the glue to be used, the eggs have to be blown out.

To do this, a hole is carefully drilled at both ends of the raw egg.

It is best to use a sharp needle for this.

Next, hold the egg over a bowl and gently blow out the inside.

Before you start using the serviette technique, you should also rinse the egg properly with water.

For this variant of decoration, you can choose any napkin and pattern that suits you.

Cut them out and hold them where you want to place the motif.

Then paint over it with craft glue so that the serviette motif sticks.

If you want,

you can also stick several motifs on an Easter egg.

There are no limits to creativity here.

Paint Easter eggs in a stone look

If you have had enough of colorful Easter eggs and want to speak out for a different color variant, this could be an ideal fit.

Since stone spray (advertising link) is used here, you should only use this decoration on blown eggs.

To create the minimalist look, all you have to do is spray the eggs with the stone spray and let them dry before decorating the apartment with them.

Decorate Easter eggs with tape

This variant saves you a lot of time and still brings pep to the Easter egg decoration.

Use Easter eggs colored in one color, whether you bought them or colored them yourself is up to you.

All you need is tape in any color and pattern you like.

Again, there are no limits to creativity.

Cut the tape the way you like it.

It doesn't matter whether it's zigzag, wavy or simply straight.

Also cut the tape to the required length.

As soon as that is done, you can already stick it on the Easter egg and create different motifs.
