Cheats way to decorate Easter Eggs!

We were inspired by the lovely Maggie from Red Ted Art to try our hand at decorating Easter Eggs.  It was incredibly easy and effective.

However, within 5 minutes of finishing decorating them my daughter has broken 8 out of the 12 eggs, playing Easter Bunny.  Oh well, the fun was in decorating them.

To dye the eggs

1. Add 10-20 drops of food colouring into a bowl
2. 1TBSP of vinegar
3. 125ml of luke warm water

We ended up adding more food colouring as the colours weren’t vibrant enough.  The longer you leave them in the dye the darker they get.

To decorate

Once the eggs have dried, apply a selection of stickers.  I found a selection from Wilkinson’s in the stationery aisle, over 1200 for only £1.50.

Happy Easter!
