Creative Fridays: Decoupaged Eggs

I’ve probably told you about my Mod Podge addiction. I have mod podged all sorts of things all over my house. Well, the other day, I was looking at blogs and saw this from Nesting Place.

{How cute!}
**************

Now, I need some Easter decorations! I got my box out and there was hardly anything in it. Did I donate some things I didn’t mean to donate??? So this project was perfect for me!

********

I found some paper mache eggs and some scrapbook paper that matches my family room. Some of the eggs I cut strips of paper and decoupaged it on the eggs. Some of the eggs I tore pieces from the paper and attached them.

**Note: Because I used scrapbook paper, not tissue paper, it was harder to apply because the paper is so much thicker, I found it easier to get the paper pieces wet first so the paper was more pliable.

And voila – a little Easter centerpiece!

Have a Fantastic Friday
Sorry this post is so early, I am leaving out of town to see Wenderful

( I think she said something about building a chicken coop???)
and wanted to post this before I left.
Have a super weekend!

    The eggs are beautiful. I am doing a similar project with 5 and 6 year olds using plaster eggs. Can you tell me how you did the entire egg and had it dry without sticking to anything. I am sure there must be a way but so far I have not found an answer. Perhaps you have that answer.

  2. I like the color and size combinations, nice.

  1. [...] And furthermore, it’s not necessary to limit this decoration to eggs. Those ball basket centerpieces are very popular and so I challenge you to think of how you could refurbish something like that. I also challenge you to visit Tatertots & Jello’s blog and see what she did to create these eggs here. [...]
