Paint Marbled Easter Eggs

Decorative Paint Marbled Easter Eggs - Kid Craft Idea

Decorative Paint Marble Easter Egg Craft Idea

Although we aren’t coloring eggs till next weekend {because it wouldn’t be Easter without some fun colored hard boiled eggs} I wanted to make some decorative eggs to add to our Easter decor.

These days I can’t do any crafts without my son being by my side – so he got to participate in the making. Which was great, because this Easter craft activity I’m sharing today is perfect for kids AND adults.

Recently I picked up some decorative plastic eggs at Walmart. I found them in the Easter aisle and they cost around $2 for a dozen.

They aren’t like the plastic eggs you use for egg hunts. They don’t split in half and almost FEEL like the real thing. But of course – they aren’t breakable. I know some children have egg allergies so these eggs are a GREAT alternative so they can still participate in the egg dying tradition.

You can of course, dye these plastic eggs with your traditional egg dye – but I decided to take it a step up. With some craft paint and a plastic container, WE shook it up and made decorative marble eggs.

The best part – these marbled eggs can make for pretty keepsakes and/or decorations for years to come! {Seems like a better investment than real eggs} I’m thinking about hot gluing some ribbon to one end, so we can hang them on a Easter tree.

Find all the crafty details for this Decorative Marbled Easter Egg tutorial below! Happy crafting, my friends! Don’t forget to share pictures of your paint marbled Easter eggs on our Facebook page wall afterwards, so we can admire your hard work from a far today! #gluedtomycrafts

PAIR YOUR PAINT MARBLED EGGS WITH —> Pom Pom Painted Easter Egg

Decorative Marble Eggs Craft Supplies Needed

Craft Supplies:

  • Paper Mache or Plastic Decorative Eggs
  • Craft Paint in Various Colors {2-3 different colors}
  • Large Plastic Container {with a secure lid}
  • 2-3 Marbles {or small beads}
  • Wax Paper On Flat Surface

Directions:

  • First things – squirt some craft paint on the bottom of your plastic container. You want two or three different colors in the container.
  • Now place your marbles and egg inside the same container.
  • Secure the lid. Make sure it’s really tight and won’t open for the next step.
  • Now are you ready? It’s time to shake, shake and SHAKE! Not too much though. You have to find a good balance so the colors don’t mix TOO much.
  • When done shaking, open your container to see your marbled egg.
  • Before you remove your egg from the container, place some wax paper down on a flat surface.
  • Using your fingers, carefully pick up the paint covered egg and lay it on the wax paper.
  • Now repeat the same steps for each egg you want to decorate today.
  • Let eggs dry completely for an hour or two.
  • Finally, when everything is dried completely, display them proudly for all to see!
