Easter egg decorating is one of the most important elements of having a successful holiday this weekend.

We are only days away from one of the biggest holidays in the Christian tradition, where we remember the sacrifice that Jesus gave us when he was crucified, as well as his resurrection that followed a few days later, along with the salvation of man and the cleansing of our sins.

The modern version of this holiday features plenty of goods, including Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Easter bunnies, and of course, Easter eggs. If you’re still trying to figure out how to decorate your eggs, look no further.

We have found a number of ways to decorate these eggs in ways that are easy to make (according to Pinterest), using anything from Sharpies to shaving cream and other items around the house.

Browse through the next few slides, pick your favorite and pass it along.

Happy Easter!

Shaving Cream Easter Eggs

One of the easiest designs to make are shaving cream Easter eggs.

These can be decorated by mixing shaving cream with paint, and then dipping the eggs in, or paint them yourself to get either a contemporary piece of art, or your own design.

Oh, and it will smell good.

Easter Egg Animals

The shape of an egg is similar to that of some animals.

This year, you can decorate your egg by taking blown-out egg shells and adding products from around the house to make them look like cute pigs, sheep or dogs.

Make sure you use a Sharpie to make the eyes.

Disney Eggs

Everyone loves a good Disney film.

This Pinterest user came up with an idea that combines the Easter tradition with some of our favorite animated characters. After all, the holiday is all about kids.

From Mickey Mouse to that Snowman from Frozen, there’s no limit to how far you can take this concept

Chick Easter Eggs

You can make Easter eggs look like baby chicken too.

One of the most popular designs out there is also a classic as you can create chicks out of eggs using some yellow paint, feathers and Washi tape.

These will look delicious and joyful.

Sharpies Easter Eggs

Sharpies are classics when it comes to decorating.

This blogger shared some of her favorite items and designs, including Easter eggs made from Sharpies of different colors. These all have religious words or imagery.

Which one’s your favorite–the one with Jesus or the cross?

Burger Easter Eggs

Who doesn’t like burgers?

One user decided to decorate his eggs in delicious fashion by using brown eggs and paint. It is extremely easy as you don’t even need to dye them.

Yum.

Water Marble Easter Eggs

Water marble eggs are impressive.

They are surprisingly easy to make and they will leave a lasting impression on your kids, family and friends. You can make these with nail polish.

Holy smokes.

Tie Dye Easter Eggs

Have you tried dying your Easter eggs?

This concept is a classic and it takes a bit more time than others, but it is the perfect way to bring out your hippie spirit and celebrate with food coloring, eggs and a water spray.

They will look great.

Mud Cloth-Inspired Eggs

The final idea we have is mud-cloth inspired eggs.

You can make all sorts of mud-cloth eggs that come with some of the cutest designs that will appeal to hipsters, scientists, writers and artists alike

 

Have a good one.
