Decorate Easter Eggs with Tattoos

by

Updated on April 13th, 2015

I’ve been dying and trying different ways to decorate Easter Eggs for the past 8 years with my boys. Every year, we like to try something a bit different to keep it interesting. This year, we got to try something totally different – giving our Easter Eggs tattoos! What’s so fun about decorating Easter Eggs is you can make your eggs completely express your own personality and interests!

I received compensation for this post. All opinions are my own.聽

Decorate Easter Eggs with Temporary Tattoos



Start with dying your eggs or leave them white. You’ll want to only use the tattoos on dry eggs, so you’ll need to wait until your eggs are fully dry before you start to apply the tattoos if you decide to use dye first.

We got our Egg Tattoos from Fiora. They’re giving away free sheets of these adorable and perfectly sized Easter Egg tattoos for a limited time.

Pick out the images you’d like from the temporary tattoos sheet and聽cut out the ones you want to use. Peel off the plastic protective sheet and then press them onto the eggs print side facing your egg. Hold a wet wash cloth to the eggs for 30 seconds and then carefully pull back the edge of the tattoos to make sure they are all the way applied.

If you have any corners that peel up, use a wet finger to gently press the tattoos down onto the egg.

    Thank You for the giveaway鈥 friend suggested we use Kool-Aid to color our Easter Eggs.

  4. Terry Cross says

    We’ve never done anything unique. Just colored them then put stickers or drawn on them

  5. Samantha says

    We like to use white crayons to write on them and rubber bands for multi colored ones!

  7. Jamielee Kimball says

    My daughter had a few surgeries last year and we were looking for things to keep her busy while she was stuck in the bed. My cousin actually found a bunch of pictures that are numbered to indicate little colored stickers to create the picture. We ended up with so many gems, colored stickers that are different shapes, and even glitter stickers. We decided to use these on our Easter eggs this year, along with finger paints. Needless to say, this got a little bit CRAZY! My little one had a blast! I think the Easter Bunny will be proud. Hehe Happy Easter All! 馃檪

  8. Michele P says

    we just dye them but don’t do anything special-though I have seen some great ideas online recently maybe we will try them with stencils if not this Easter then next Easter.

  10. Jennifer Williams says

    I’ve always loved the white crayon method – anywhere you draw resists the dye!

  11. Beverly Metcalf says

    It’s not really unique, but we usually just dye the eggs and either draw pictures on them or apply easter stickers. Thanks!

  12. Melissa Mazzur says

    My grandma taught us to dye eggs with onion skins so we are going to try it this year with our kids!

  19. Michelle Tucker says

    We like to dye them and then bling them with stickers and stick on gems. It’s a lot of fun and sometimes they can get really beautiful!

  21. Stephanie Larison says

    That’s so cool, I never thought about doing that. My daughter would really like doing that with some Frozen tats she has. I grew up using a white crayon, coloring or writing something on the egg, and then dipping it into the color and it turned out pretty cool when it came out and dried off.

  23. Sue Hull says

    I’m going to mix different colors of dye in a bowl to make bright and prettier colored eggs. I found it on Pinterest. Before I put the eggs in the colors I’m going to put round and long stips of stickers around the egg so that part will stay white then put a sticker on it to cover the white part.Thank you for the chance 馃檪

  24. MEG TUCKER says

    I pull out all the crafting supplies, fake hair,glue, markers etc.. and we make funky fun decoreated eggs after we have dyed them bright colors!

  25. EMMA L HORTON says

    I REALLY DON’T DO ANYTHING SPECIAL OTHER THAN COLOR AND HIDE FOR THE KIDS…THEY THINK COLORED EGGS ARE GREAT

  28. Betsy Barnes says

    I love decorating Easter eggs. I like putting my name on the egg and also adding a cute bunny sticker. We also use the dye water to tie dye a t-shirt. 馃檪

  33. Tina W says

    I usually stick easy things with the kids, like using food safe markers. But I did see something on TV about cooking the eggs wrapped in old silk ties, and the color transfers. Seemed very interesting!

  35. Michele Baron says

    I haven’t decorated easter eggs since my daughter was little…we would dye them and add glitter

  38. Paol Trenny says

    When I do not have commercial egg dyes I use Crayola markers and sparkles to decorate eggs

  41. Evelyn Goettner says

    We like to dye the eggs and then cover in sparkly glitter or the kids use markers to draw funny faces on the eggs.

  42. Shawna O says

    We love using sharpies to draw a frame on one side of the egg and then we draw a picture on the eggs and then use a Kool-Aid dye to color the portion of the egg outside of the frame with different colors! Thank you for the great giveaway!

  44. Pamela Gurganus says

    I don’t have a unique way to decorate Easter eggs. I like the old-fashioned way of just coloring them in dye.

  45. karenb says

    kids are grown so haven’t colored eggs in years, however we lost our son last year and found out 6 months after he passed away he had a little boy, so we will definitely be doing it this year, so I guess I have cheated by reading everybody elses tips, thanks

  46. Cathy says

    These are so cute and simple. I remember doing something very similar to these when we were younger. Thank you for sharing at Share It One More Time. Cathy

  49. Annamarie V says

    I don’t decorate eggs anymore I just like to admire other peoples works of art, when I did decorate my favorite was to dye the egg two different colors.

  53. Cynthia R says

    I haven’t tried this yet but I saw on a blog post someone dyes their eggs but lays the egg with lace when it gets dyed for a neat pattern.

  54. Heather! says

    We used to do tie-dyed eggs, and even did some with little stealies! (<– steal your face…Grateful Dead thing)

  55. Jennifer Tilson says

    Sometimes I can convince the kids to do half the egg in one color and flip to do the other in a different color. But, they’re creatures of habit and just plop them in the dye cup.

  56. Deborah Page says

    I love these decorative egg tattoos. Our usual routine is simply dying them and applying stickers. These are much prettier!

  57. Trasina McGahey says

    We normally use a crayon to draw on designs before coloring. I am really horrible at crafty things. Sad but true!

  59. Victoria says

    We are traditional easter egg dyers. I typically use the store bought paaz egg dye, but am looking for new ways!

  60. Ann Bacciaglia says

    This looks like a great way to decorate Easter eggs. I will have to try it this year with the kids.

  62. Howard G. says

    We make designs with crayons and than dip them in the color. We also dip them in several colors to see what we end up with.

  63. Lisa B says

    This is a great way to decorate Easter eggs. I will have to try this with my friends kids.

  69. Shauna says

    How beautiful. I am so not creative enough to come up with ideas like this. HA! But I wouldn’t mind using yours 馃檪

  72. greentopiaries says

    I love using Chalkboard paint to decorate eggs. Everyone loves them! But for dye, we like using just about everything: rubber bands, lace, ribbon, etc tied around them and then layering color. Last year, we used a toothbrush to create speckled eggs! So fun! Thanks for the chance!

  77. Crystal F says

    My girls use whatever comes with the kit and then their own art supplies. They’ve come up with some really cute designs. Thank you!

  80. Joni Mason says

    I put rubber bands around the eggs & dip in one color, when that is dry, I remove the rubber band & paint designs or put Easter stickers on it.

  81. Sue Hull says

    I want to try the rubber bands on the eggs to give it a tie dye look.I saw it on pinterest and it looks so cool.Also do sprinkle eggs although my sister may frown on that idea.My nieces would love it though.Lol!There’s always outside.Thank you for the chance 馃檪

  82. Sarah Hirsch says

    i have never decorated Easter eggs because I don’t celebrate Easter, but it sounds like fun to tie-dye eggs

  83. Melissa Shirley says

    I really do not have a special way to decorate. I just get the egg dye kits and let the kids have fun. They come up with interesting ways to make the eggs look cool. Like putting tape on them and so they have designs.

  86. Debbie Welchert says

    We do them the same way my mother taught me and daughter and now my grandchildren. Hot water, vinegar, and food coloring. We dip the eggs in whatever color we make and put them back in the egg carton to dry.

  89. Kelly Nicholson says

    post telling me your own unique ways to decorate Easter eggs

    havent done it in years..boiled eggs and dye is all i know

  92. PuffyButters says

    My method is not very unique. I just buy an egg decorating kit at the drug store and dip the eggs in the various colors. Thanks for the giveaway!

  93. Linda G. says

    I use to decorate them with our daughter but now I have the grandkids over and we have a ball decorating them.

  96. Vickie Couturier says

    when the kids got older I supervised and let them color an decorate as they liked,they like mixing colors

  97. susan says

    Just the old fashion way with using one of the decorating kits that have the dye tablets.

  100. Theresa Smith says

    We just use the old fashioned way of coloring on the egg with a crayon and then dipping it in the color. Works great!

  104. Mary Beth Elderton says

    We like to “tie dye.” We dye the eggs one color, then wrap them kind of randomly with rubber bands, then dip them in another color.

  107. alena svetelska says

    we use crayons to use difrent patern and also use leaves and kids love to use difrent stickers while coloring their egss.

  111. janet woodling says

    I really don’t have a unique way of decorating eggs. I always let my children decorate them any way that they liked.

  115. Debra S says

    I my self have not done a lot in the way of any “Eggstra” special decorating of the Easter Eggs! LOL I had five kids and trust me, it was enough to cook SO many eggs so each of them had a lot of eggs to color. They would do the color with the white crayon thing before dipping, and doing two different colors, etc, but not a whole lot more, really.

    LOL AFTER Easter, it’s a good thing everyone loves deviled eggs and egg salad, isn’t it?

  116. Carolyn Benson says

    I have always used regular colors and then put my eggs into the swirl colors, they turn out so pretty.

  117. Lisa says

    I like to get different kits each year to try new things, like using a white crayon to make designs.

  119. Aimee Trader says

    This year I think we are going to make Minion eggs. dip the bottom blue and the top yellow then color on the arms eyes and mouth!

  120. Amanda Alvarado says

    We decorate with a crayon and then dip in the different colors! We also use the plastic wraps that shrink onto the egg.

  121. nicole dz says

    We like to decorate eggs with different color sprinkles and we also use the stickers.

  122. CR Williams says

    I have never really decorated an egg before but I am looking forward to doing it for the first time.

  127. Margaret Smith says

    We use crayons on some of the eggs and lightly make decorations and drawings. When you dye them, the drawings come out really nice.

  129. kath g says

    We use crayons to make a pattern and a sponge to fill in the sections so they kind of look a little like stained glass.

  130. Sandy Klocinski says

    Blackboard Eggs: Coat eggs with a layer of chalkboard paint and let your chalk do the talking. If you fall out of love with a pattern or picture, wash the surface and draw again.

  131. Bridget Reich says

    We like to do the trick where you write on the egg in white crayon and then dye it! 馃檪 The kids have fun with that!

  138. Dawn Monroe says

    We just do the old school vinegar dye from the store. Nothing special but the kids enjoy it.

  144. shelly peterson says

    We don’t really have a unique way but we did try once dabbing them with paint with paper towel to give it a textured look.

  145. Mary Dailey says

    We like to use glitter free stickers on our eggs and the crayon that comes with the dye to personalize them.

  146. Jessica To says

    We like to wrap rubber bands around them while we drop them in the dye to make lines on them.

  147. ginette4 says

    We don’t have a unique way we use colouring and chalks that are in the decorating package

  150. Karen Glatt says

    I make homemade personalized eggs with each persons name for Easter! My family loves getting an egg with their names on it!

  152. susan says

    We love using a white crayon to decorate before dipping them into the dye. It’s kind of like a secret message!
