Oh Joy! (Not a WordPress blog)
It’s Easter week, and while I’m not religious, I am a big fan of the traditions with which I grew up (and any opportunity to use paint and glitter makes me happy). After reading some of Brit & Co.‘s articles about decorating Easter eggs, I thought I’d share some of the Easter egg decorations I have found on WordPress. I thought for sure I’d already seen every way there was to decorate eggs, but my fellow bloggers have come up with some really creative and lovely ideas I’ve never even imagined!
Enjoy!

I was having sense memories of the smell of the vinegar and the feel of the little McCormick food coloring bottles from my childhood as I was writing this. Makes me want to dye eggs!

I’m going to get a can of gold spray paint and spray paint a couple plastic eggs for an egg hunt; provided the weather holds of course. this is Minnesota after all. but I was right there with you thinking of that vinegar smell. but it’s one of those traditions that all kids should experience in my humble opinion. your post brought back some really good memories for me. thanks!

I agree! They do, however, come under the heading of “too pretty to eat.”

Those marbled eggs are gorgeous! They put my PAAS-colored eggs to shame. 😉

I remember Paas! The flat little yellow box with that goofy bent wire thing that always dropped the eggs. So funny!

My vote goes to the Klimt-inspired eggies. If I wasn’t planning on making Martha Stewart Easter cookies, I might give them a try…
Thank you again for a great search!
