Easter Crafts: Painted Paper Mache Eggs

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my privacy policy.

Adding eggs around the house is a quick and easy way to bring a feeling of Easter into your home.  With about a million different ways to personalize eggs, decorating the eggs is always one of the Easter crafts I add to my to do list each year.  This year, I decided to make painted paper mache eggs in fun colors to match my kitchen.

I found some packs of paper mache eggs at the local craft store.

I knew that by adding some paint I would have an easy Easter craft and would also have a decoration that would fit really well with my other decor items.  My kitchen is full of yellows, greens and teal so I wanted to stick with some of the colors so the eggs really went well in the space.

I painted one side of the eggs and let them dry.  Then, I painted the remainder of the egg.

Once they were dry on both sides, I tossed them in a little moss basket I had found when shopping.

If you didn’t want to bother with waiting for paint to dry, you could easily decorate the eggs with washi tape or even glitter.
