Decorating Easter Eggs:
- Traditional Dyeing: Use commercial Easter egg dye kits or natural dyes made from ingredients like onion skins, beet juice, turmeric, or spinach to dye eggs in vibrant colors.
- Marbling: Swirl multiple colors of dye together or use nail polish to create a marbled effect on the eggs.
- Glitter and Sequins: Coat eggs in glue and then roll them in glitter or attach sequins to create sparkling, eye-catching designs.
- Decoupage: Cut out small pieces of decorative paper or napkins and adhere them to eggs using Mod Podge or craft glue for a decoupage effect.
- Washi Tape: Use colorful washi tape to create geometric patterns, stripes, or other designs on the eggs.
- Temporary Tattoos: Apply temporary tattoos to the surface of the eggs for intricate and detailed designs with minimal effort.
- Markers and Pens: Draw designs, patterns, or even write messages on the eggs using markers or pens specially designed for egg decorating.
- Rubber Band Resist: Wrap rubber bands around eggs before dyeing them to create interesting patterns where the dye is resisted.
