Did you see my natural, chic and nostalgic Easter table yesterday? Then you caught a glimpse of these jazzy embellished eggs I created with nothing more than a silver paint pen!
Even though Easter is just a few days away, you can whip up a carton of these embellished eggs in no time. Seriously.
I had 12 paper mache eggs on hand that I’d picked up at Michaels last year. They were originally a craft paper color, so I painted them with white acrylic paint. I’d wanted to just add the silver on top of the natural paper, but it wasn’t showing up too well on my test egg.
I started with a few simple designs, then decided to doodle some more “intricate” designs on paper before applying to an egg.
I’m a dabbler. I couldn’t just stick to one design!
I did some eggs in stripes, some in dots, some geometric, some scallopy and some swirly abstract ones.
And that’s it!
Simple. And sparkly. Two of my favorite things!
Ha ha, I’m a dabbler, too…I think that’s why I could never keep up an etsy shop, lol. I would never make the same thing twice! I especially love the star and triangle patterned egg. That could look cool on an accent wall, eh? Or a tote bag! Hmmmm….. š

I have dreams of opening my own Etsy shop, but I have no idea what I’d sell, and my inventory would never be consistent! That would look SO cool as an accent wall, or on a tote bag… š
I love the patterns you picked!!! Also, you AND Lauren need to have an Etsy shop š
