You guys, Easter’s a couple of weeks away, and I went on an Easter egg decorating binge last weekend. I realized that I hadn’t dyed eggs in years, and I think I may have been trying to make up for lost time. These don’t require any dye though — just get some eggs, washi tape, and scissors, and go to town.
The directions are kind of self-explanatory; just cut tape in different shapes and apply to room-temperature eggs (hard-boiled, if you wish). The only one that was a bit tricky was the gold dot egg — I layered two types of washi tape and punched out dots with an oversized hole punch.
Whaddaya think? Is it something that you’d try, or do you prefer the tried-and-true dyed Easter eggs? I think these are so lovely, but I couldn’t resist a little dye action too — I’ll share those a little closer to Easter! xoxo
OMG. I LOVE these!! What a simply, yet beautiful idea! I have amassed an enormous supply of washi tape – and I know my kids will really enjoy this project. Thanks!
Love this! I definitely look forward to decorating easter eggs this way.
LOVE this dear!!! Holy cow these are awesome!
Thanks lady!
This is a brilliant idea, Chelsea. The green one is so awesome!
Thanks Sho! That one’s my fave, too.
Chelsea – these are gorgeous! I’ve made washi tape eggs before, but yours are far lovelier (so much so I just posted about them!)
