First, cover your table surface with a plastic tablecloth. I also like to use several paper plates to help contain any mess. Untie the ribbon from each ornament. I had the girls select a color palette from this acrylic paint pack. I find that it always helps to start with a limited set of colors before letting kids go nuts with painting! You can avoid having a lot of black and brown Easter eggs that way! I gave the girls a variety of small paint brushes and let them dive in!

Let the DIY ornaments dry completely and then re-tie on the ribbons. We chose to just paint the front of our ornaments, but you could paint the back as well once they are dry.

Find a sturdy branch or two from your yard. Tip: The eggs are somewhat heavy, so you do need a sturdy branch to support them. I gave the branches a coat of white spray paint and then placed them in a tall vase weighed down by rocks.



After hanging the ornaments, fill out the other tree branches with plastic Easter eggs hung with string (just run the string through the little holes at the bottom of the egg!).

I love this modern, colorful take on an Easter egg tree and have Stella and Hazel to thank for their beautiful eggs. There’s no way I could’ve painted ones that looked so sweet! I hope you try making your own one-of-a-kind tree with your children!
