13 ways to decorate an Easter Egg

I love to decorate Easter Eggs with my family. It’s so much fun watching the girls get covered in glitter, stickers and all of the beautiful colors that without fail, stain their skin.

If you’re still dunking your Easter eggs in plain dye we need to talk.  This Easter, lets’s take your eggs one step further with these different DIY decorating techniques. All of these wonderful designs are really easy and inexpensive to make. All of the supplies are available from the supermarket and craft store.
