This is another super cute idea from kmckaydesigns I have been dying to make these! I finally did it! I dug out all my plastic Easter eggs that I have had from the previous years and got started.
What you’ll need is:
-Plastic Eggs
-Jute
-Glue Gun
-Spray paint
You start by putting a dot of glue on the tip of the egg, stick the end of your jute on it and start winding around the egg adding a dab of glue every so often. When they are done. Paint. Wait…and then you can find something cute to put them in. I found my basket at a thrift store for $.75 and then spray painted it white.
If you go to her website she has a great tutorial.
This is what they looked like before paint…
All Painted! What do you think?

I love them, Kirsten. They are so cute. Amazing what a coat of paint will do to them.

I meant to make these last Easter and never got around to it. I love them much more with the paint, so now I'm glad I waited. So cute!!!

Super cute. I have been looking for some eggs for decoration but haven't found any I love. I am going to try these. WISH me luck! I wish I was half as crafty as I desire to be.

So cute and I can totally see this made into a wreath with a little wire (or jute). I might make this a little family project this weekend. Thanks for the post!

Kirsten…I recently discovered your blog and think it's wonderful. I used your Eggstra Cute Eggs as inspiration for my April 7 post on What Remains Now (http://www.whatremainsnow.com).
