Fun Easter Egg project from Scarlett Clay

My friend Scarlett posted these adorable eggs this week and was kind enough to give me permission to link up and steal a few of her photos.  I knew you would love it!  Her inspiration was Martha Stewart. She posted the project about five years ago on her site.  Aren't they adorable? 
You can find these little wooden eggs in your local craft store.  They are very inexpensive and fun to paint or decoupage. Scarlett covered these in her husband's former stamp collection.  How fun!

You can see the entire post here.  What a fun and easy project to do for Easter. Thank you, Scarlett!  Lately I've seen eggs painted, jeweled, covered in lace and all kinds of paper. I really love the postage stamps though. I think an old children's book would be fun to use too.  Enjoy!  Be back soon.  Hope all is well.  xoxo

  5. What a fun idea. Looks terrific. Which reminds me yet again that I have glittered eggs to put out. And five million other Easter decorations. So not happening this year! Enjoy.
