- Start off by gluing the decorated egg shape in the center of the colored paper.
- Follow that up with the TWO handprint cutouts, along the bottom, to represent grass. You want it to look like the egg is hiding behind it.

Make It Your Own:
Don’t have access to a printer? No worries! You ALWAYS hand-draw a basic egg shape on paper and build the craft from there. You could even use a Cricut machine to cut out a basic egg shape or maybe even find some Easter egg coloring books from the Dollar Tree, to trim out instead.
