I was asked to collaborate with Better Homes and Gardens to be featured in an article in The NY Post about creative ideas for egg decorating. The article will be featured in the Saturday, April 7th edition of the paper! I really enjoyed this project and hope that these ideas are fun and easy for you to enjoy with your whole family. Here are some of my egg decorating ideas that will be featured in this Saturday’s article!
Polka Dot Eggs
Use glitter dots to add an extra shimmer to ordinary eggs!
Materials:

Let your eggs do the talking with this fun play on decoupage eggs.
