Decoupage Easter Eggs
If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram you know I am a huge fan of mod podge crafts and Easter crafts so combining the two was a lot of fun!
There are so many things you can make with mod podge, and many of the supplies can be found at the dollar store.
With this tutorial you can make 3 colorful decoupage Easter eggs in under 15 minutes!
Quick and easy crafts are my absolute favorite, so I love participating in the Craft Lightning Challenge, where all crafts are made in under 15 minutes.
Cool right?
This month’s challenge is to decoupage and the craft has to be completed, minus drying time, in 15 minutes or less.
With Easter rapidly approaching, I wanted to make a few Easter decorations, so I decided to pretty up Dollar Tree plastic eggs.
Actually, all the supplies I used were from Dollar Tree.
So not only is this project quick and easy, but it’s also inexpensive!
It’s a fun decorating idea that you can customize to match your home decor.
Let me show you what I did.

How To Make Decoupage Easter Eggs
When I decoupage with napkins I normally paint the item white. It gives a much brighter finish for the napkins.
When I make these again I will either purchase white plastic eggs, or spray paint them white.
The napkins I purchased have two layers, with the bottom layer plain white.
So I separated the layers and just used the pretty floral layer for the Easter eggs.
I wanted the entire egg covered with the napkin, rather than just using cut out flowers, or strips.
This actually makes it so much easier to make these.
Add a thin layer of mod podge to the egg.
Be sure to work carefully, as the napkins are thin.
Lay the egg in the center of the napkin layer and lightly pat the napkin onto the egg.
Then simply cut the excess napkin.
I literally made 3 of these in 15 minutes!
While the napkin is still wet, use your finger to carefully smooth out the wrinkles.
You can add a second layer of the floral napkin if you want, but I liked the color of the egg showing up underneath.
It really makes each one look unique.
I hope you enjoyed these Dollar Tree decoupaged plastic eggs.
If you make them let me know in the comments and share a photo if you can. I love seeing that my crafts inspire you!

See how quick and easy these decoupaged Easter eggs were to make?
I will definitely be making up a basket of these.
Keep an eye out the next time you are shopping for pretty napkins.
They can be used in so many different ways with Mod Podge.
I also updated plastic eggs using glitter and they are some of my fave-just messy!
