altered plastic eggs

Every year I try to come up with some unique and easy ways to decorate eggs for Easter and I've got some fun ideas coming your way! First up- this year I decided to use my Sharpie pens to alter plastic eggs. I am not a big fan of plastic eggs (they can be challenging to alter) but Lucy LOVES them and they are so much fun to fill with goodies!  Inspired by my doodle eggs  from a couple years ago, I went to work altering the surface with doodled designs.


The fun part is that you can rearrange and switch them up!


Looking for more egg tutorials? I've altered all kinds of eggs over the years- here are some of my favorites-

  8. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them! We are vegan and don't decorate real eggs, so this is a great option for us to do with the kids!

    By the way, I would love it if you did a book or a class on crafts with kids! You have spectacular ideas for that. :)
