DIY German Glass Glitter Easter Eggs

Do you have a ton of these plastic eggs around your house?
It seems I buy a new bag every year for Easter and I have accumulated way too many! But let me show you a way to add a little sparkle to these plastic eggs.
Here’s What You’ll Need


Plastic Easter Eggs


90 Grit German Glass Glitter from Meyer Imports


Mod Podge


Sponge Brush
I coated each side of my plastic egg with a thin layer of Mod Podge. I found it easier to do each side separately and let them dry before I put the egg back together. Next, I sprinkled the German Glass Glitter over each side being careful not to get any on the ridge that snaps the two sides of the egg together.
Once I snapped the eggs back together, I had to do a few touch ups around the center of the egg. But other than that, this was a really easy and quick Easter craft.

    I love this! and I have no glitter but a huge supply of other things like tiny glass beads and tiny agates that I never thought to use this way. Love that you shared this!

    I love this idea, you may even spray paint them afterwards in different colours. What a feast with glittered and coloured eggs. I bet old Faberge never thought of that!
