I decided to try my hand at this Easter egg DIY last Easter, and while the results were amazing, the rest of it was messy. This is a project you might want to forgo with small children. It’s one of the simpler DIY Easter projects, but I think a warning needs to be in effect for how it will leave your kitchen. Simply dip your eggs in glue, and then roll them around in piles of glitter. It creates the most gorgeous Easter eggs ever, but the dangerous glue and glitter combination is something that you need to know before you delve in.

I’m sure these can be purchased from a number of bakeries as Easter draws near, however, this dessert is just as easy to DIY. Simply melt white chocolate, dye it orange with food coloring, and then dip strawberries (with the leaves still intact) into your orange chocolate. You’ll have adorable “carrot” desserts for your Easter extravaganza!

3. Salt Dough Easter Eggs

Easter eggs are a lot of fun to decorate, but are they always worth the work? If you love decorating Easter eggs but don’t like the smell of hard-boiled eggs or the mess that the dye leaves behind, try this alternative. Make salt dough (2 parts flour, one part water, one part salt), cut your desired egg shapes out, and then bake them at 250 degrees for two hours. Round up your little ones and let them decorate however they’d like! It’s an easy and much longer lasting alternative to the regular Easter eggs!
