15 Fun and Stylish Projects for Decorating Eggs

This ingenious guide shows you how to make beautiful decorative pieces using the shells of real eggs. Fifteen creative projects feature hen, quail, duck, and goose eggs that you can transform into gorgeous gifts, or display at home.

Begin with the simple egg garland by threading eggshells onto ribbon. Combine rice-paper flowers, quail eggs and fragrant mimosa for a captivating Easter wreath. Color eggs with natural dyes and decorate with scraffito. For an unusual present with a personal touch, make indulgent chocolate eggs and adorn them with crystallized violets, or bright felted wool egg cozies!

Step-by-step illustrations and superb photographs ensure that every project is easy to follow. Your imagination will be sparked by the suggested variations, and encourage you to create your own designs!
