One unique egg decorating idea is to use paint or tissue paper to create swirls all over a hard boiled or wooden egg. You could also get in touch with nature by collecting leaves and flowers to adhere to a few dyed eggs with Mod Podge.

Fabric Spring Eggs

Some of the prettiest details can be found in fabric, and it can be a bit hard to replicate some of those patterns. Fabric spring eggs are the solution! Instead of painting real eggs, gather fabric scraps from around your home and use them to form these nifty egg patterns. They’ll be the perfect little decorations to leave out on tables. This is one egg decorating idea that you can use all spring long!

Easter Egg Designs with Yarn

Although it may not be obvious, there is a definite connection between decorative sheep and eggs; they are both perfect for spring and Easter! Fluffy little sheep romp around throughout the spring. Their pretty wool gives us yarn to craft, which is exactly what these Bunny Knit Cozies are made from! Swaddle your eggs with yarn to give them a soft and cozy look with this warm Easter egg design.

Who says that Easter eggs are only for eating? Use a Nesting Egg Place Card Holder to reserve seating at your Easter dinner table. You have to admit that egg decorations are fun whether you can eat them or not. You could also try hanging some cute Easter decorations on your windows or doors to welcome your visitors with an array of pastel colors. Easter egg decorating will never be boring again!
