- Instructions
-
-
Cut out the paper images and soak them for a few minutes in a mixture of 2 tablespoons white glue and 2 tablespoons water. Note: Smaller pictures (1-inch square or smaller) work best. The larger the image, the more it will fold and crease when glued to the egg.
-
Remove the images from the mixture and gently press them onto the egg. The paper should bend and adhere to the egg's curved surface.
-
Set aside to dry, then paint on borders, designs or solid colors for the background.
