Framed Easter Egg Art

I'm going to re-post a favourite Easter craft I made last year that continues to be one of the most viewed crafts on my blog..... my Framed Easter Egg Art!

 



I had this old wood frame in the basement waiting for a new purpose...



So I added a few coats of white paint to freshen it up...



I wanted to cover the back with fabric, but didn't want anything with a bold colour or busy pattern, so I bought this fabric place mat from the dollar store...





I added it to the backing of my frame using some hot glue.





I had some eggs in my box of Easter decorations. They were those Easter egg picks- the foam eggs that come on a stick. So I removed the sticks, then cut the eggs in half with a knife.







Then arranged them how I wanted on the frame and secured each one with some hot glue.





And then I had this fun Easter egg art....




I think it turned out cute!

  1. Those are super cute!!! I can't stand the sound of cutting Styrofoam... so I would struggle with the whole cutting them in half part :)

  6. This is such a fun idea. I have so many extra eggs, that I could easily do something like this. I would love it if you would share how on my linky party Dare to Share. I hope to see you there.
