Dye and Decoupage
Want to make the most colorful egg in the basket? Rub it with vinegar first! For an extra touch, decoupage with some cutouts from specially shaped hole punches.
Dye Eggs Naturally
For a chemical-free way to dye your Easter eggs, steal color from vegetables. Red cabbage, for example, will turn your eggs a surprising bright blue!
Buy an Eco-Friendly Egg Dying Kit
If you’re strapped for time, an all-in-one egg-dying kit can please both you and the kids this Easter. Our favorite is this eco-friendly one, which uses all-natural extracts from fruits and vegetables.
Decoupage Eggs with a Surprise Inside
Fill an eggshell with colorful candy like jellybeans or a surprise message and decoupage tissue paper over the entire egg for a surprising twist. Your kids will love cracking them open on Easter!
Hide the Surprise with Baking Liners
If decoupage isn’t your thing, you can stick your eggs into baking liners to hide holes (and the candy surprise!). Add a cute “Crack Me†message for a little more fun.
Try Unconventional Patterns
We love the unusual, chic folk art decorations on these eggs, which your family can replicate with kid-friendlier crayons instead of paint. Beats the traditional zig-zag lines we’re used to!
Cascarones
Try this Mexican alternative to plastic eggs: Cascarones are filled with confetti that your kids can playfully crack over heads to make glorious messes.
Decorate Wooden Eggs
If you’d rather not have a surplus of hardboiled eggs at home, use wooden eggs instead. Since they’ll never go bad, your kids can have Easter keepsakes that last forever, and your family will have a new egg-decorating tradition.
