Easter Crafts: How To Make Glitter Eggs

Put a little pizazz in your holiday with this fun Easter craft. We all know that glitter can be a hassle to work with, but if you've got the right tools and a little patience, you can easily make this Easter craft! We recommend using latex gloves to keep the glitter contained to the egg.

This Easter, take your eggs one step further with these decorating techniques from the Incredible Egg. All of the designs are easy and inexpensive to create and all of the supplies can be found at a local supermarket or craft store. Depending on how long you plan to keep the egg, you may wish to either hard boil or empty out the contents of the egg prior to decorating.

STEP 1: Pick up several  containers of powdered glitter in assorted colors at your local craft store

STEP 2: Sprinkle two or three handfuls of glitter on paper plates, with one color to a plate

STEP 3: Squeeze a small amount of craft glue onto a paper plate and dip a small paint brush into the glue

STEP 4: Lightly brush the craft glue over the egg until the entire surface is covered

STEP 5: Gently roll the egg in the colored glitter of your choice, until the egg is fully covered

STEP 6: Set on wax paper to dry for one hour
