A Pretty Brushstrokes Easter Egg Decorating Idea

Hi, friends!

As the hustle & bustle of our lives has slowed down quite a bit due to the #quarantine, I’m getting into crafting mode over here!

I find crafting is therapeutic on so many levels! Turn off that screen and make something! I promise you’ll feel WAY better about life when you do.

Easter is approaching, regardless of the pandemic situation, and it’s most definitely a holiday that deserves to be celebrated!

So, I have a few Easter crafts on the way for you, that are super easy to do, because while I enjoy crafting, I’m not the best crafter, if you get my drift 🙂

I picked up crafting eggs at Walmart, in the seasonal section, for about $1 per dozen. You can paint or dye these eggs! While I’ve looked and unfortunately, they are not available online, I will be buying these every year! They were so easy to use for this craft – way easier than boiling eggs and way prettier IMO than plastic eggs.

I then picked 4 colors, which I bought at both Hobby Lobby and Walmart (I’ll link them below)! I grabbed my paint palette and a medium-sized paintbrush, and went to town!

This was so simple and I’m sure kids could do it, easily, too! I made quick brushstrokes all over the eggs with two different colors.

Because I thought the eggs needed a little “punch”, if you will, I decided last minute to add glitter while the second paint was drying.

That’s it! SO simple and FUN!

Supplies needed:

  • Eggs (I picked up mine from Walmart)
  • Paint (I used Apple Barrel Lite Mocha & Chestnut from Walmart, as well as Delta Ceramcoat Salmon & Pink Seashell from Hobby Lobby acrylic paint)
  • Paintbrush
  • Glitter (I used Champagne-colored glitter)
  • Paint palette

+ I go through our toys every few months - if the girls don’t play with it, it gets handed down to family or donated. I find they play better when there are less options 🙌🏻 
+ I use target’s organization bins & storage cubes for nearly everything & each one has a designated place - one for Barbies, doll babies, calico critters, etc. ✔️
+ I expect the girls to clean this area up on their own but I will occasionally go through & make sure things are still organized in the best way - a little maintenance, if you will! 🤍 
+ things don’t have to be perfect! I show my playroom IRL sometimes on IG & it does NOT look like it does in this reel! 🥰 
+ I’ve linked all that I can on LTK 😘
