by Jolene Tang, Contributing Writer

About this time last year, I attempted to decorate Easter eggs with a friend. And they didn't turn out so well, for various reasons.

So this year, when I saw a package of faux Easter eggs at the dollar store, I decided to give it another try! But this time, I tested out a few simple, no-fail decorating methods for decorating Easter eggs which I will be sharing with you today.

These are such easy Easter Dollar Store Crafts that turn out beautifully.

As a bonus, I also created a spring printable quote for you! Be sure to read through to the end to see how you can snag the free download for yourself.

3 Ways to Decorate Easter Eggs

1. Decoupage Easter Eggs

I discovered how much I love Mod Podge a few years ago when I used it to give my old nightstand a makeover with fabric. Ever since then, it's been one of my go-to ways to spruce up any project, from furniture pieces to seasonal crafts.

Here's what you'll need to join in on the fun and make your own decoupage easter eggs:

  • Faux eggs
  • Craft paper, scrapbook paper or fabric
  • Scissors
  • Mod Podge
  • Paint Brush

Make sure you pick a paper or fabric that's not too thick! Otherwise, it can be tricky to shape it onto your egg. I used brown craft paper for this and it was perfect!

Once you've picked your paper, crumple it up a few times so that it's not so stiff, and then cut it up into strips. Finally, paste the strands onto your egg one at a time with a small paintbrush and some Mod Podge.

2. Paint and Twine Easter Eggs

Incorporate a pop of color into your project by painting a few eggs. All you need to make this happen is a variety of acrylic paints and a paintbrush! Get creative and bring in a few spring colors that match the rest of your seasonal decorations.

Once you've painted your eggs, wrap a long strand of twine around each one and finish them off with a bow.

Voila! You'll have added a unique and rustic touch to go with your Easter decor ensemble.

3. Easter Eggs Using Lace Tape

I already have a slight obsession with lace, so imagine my delight when I recently found lace tape at the craft store. I originally bought it to use for scrapbooking, but little did I know that it was just what I needed for this project.

All you have to do is paint an egg and wrap lace tape around it.

It's really that simple!

Believe it or not, I actually found this yellow picture frame at a thrift store a while back. I had planned on re-painting it eventually, but after realizing how perfect it would be with my spring printable, I decided to leave it.
