1. DIY Nail Polish Marbled Eggs

These brightly colored eggs from Hello Glow are full of gorgeous, bright colors and are made with nothing more than nail polish!

3. Washi Tape Eggs

Add some bling to your Easter with these fun and sparkly Washi Tape Eggs from Savvy Saving Couple. It’s a super easy and shiny way to decorate eggs!

I love using natural dyes to color Easter eggs! These incredible-looking eggs were made by putting cracked eggs in a tea/soy mixture. Get step-by-step instructions at steamykitchen.com.

7. Dyed Minion Easter Eggs

If your munchkins are mad for Minions these adorable Easter eggs from A Pumpkin and A Princess will have them singing the Banana Song while filling their Easter baskets!

8. Black and White Easter Eggs

These cool eggs from Obviously Sweet were made with nothing more than a black Sharpie marker. From polka dots to stripes, and thick lines to unique designs, the sky’s the limit when drawing on these hard-boiled eggs. You could even use plastic eggs. It doesn’t get much easier than that!

Creative Connection for Kids came up with a very unique way to decorate their eggs – using hot glue! Parents can help younger kids make designs on the eggs with hot glue. Then dip the eggs in dye, allow them dry, then let your kids peel the glue away. Fun and pretty!

13. Sprinkle Easter Eggs

When it comes to unique ways to decorate Easter eggs, these sweet little Easter eggs from StudioDIY use glue and candy sprinkles like you would put on cookies, cupcakes, or a cake. Speaking of cake, they also look good enough to eat (but don’t).

We used Paaz (old school) to dye the eggs, and then I decorated the them using a variety of Sharpies®. They came out quite beautiful.

This article is fabulous! I'm going to bookmark it for next year!

Thank you for sharing.

These are amazing! I've actually never decorated Easter eggs. I'd like to with my son, but I may wait until he's a little older. Although, I bet he'd have fun now. =D
