1) Chalkboard Eggs. It's as easy as this: paint your egg with chalkboard paint, wait to dry, and draw away!

Dye several eggs a few of your favorite colors. Break these shells into pieces and set aside. Now dye one egg (or leave it white) the color of your choice. Paint all-purpose glue onto your base egg and place a piece of your cracked shell on this spot. Be creative with colors and patterns! Decoration by Cheryl Ball. 3) Paper Mache Eggs.
