Painting Easter eggs has a long tradition. Beyond the paints that can be brushed, there are pulver-state, water-soluble, so-called egg paints available. Let’s be creative! Our classic style home can be decorated lots of ways for the holydays.
Let’s use silk bands, stripes can be attached in different directions to the egg using glue. It’s not necessary to cover the whole surface. With its moderated shine, silk provides an elegant look to our Easter egg.
Lace also can be the material. Wide or narrow stripes are good as well, but a smaller, round cloth also can be used. This later can be sewed with similar color thread at the top of the egg. Attaching a ribbon, it can be hanged. Small pearl buttons can be fixed on it in any pattern. Perfect solution for vintage style.
Luxury effect can be reached using gold or silver smoke foil. Coat the egg’s surface with decoupage glue and fit the foil with a soft brush carefully. The texture will be even more interesting, if the gilding is not continuous, but covers the egg in patches. The egg should be painted to a bright color before. If we like shiny result, small pearls or glitter can be poured into the pattern painted from liquid glue.
If we would like to purchase the decoration instead of making it, there are eggs made of glass, gems, or porcelain available. These are perfectly fit into a classic interior. For the sake of children, don’t forget the pastel coloured, egg shaped candies, which can be served in an elegant glass tray to decorate the table itself.
