After the egg shortage of 2021, I found some creative alternatives to dyeing eggs. My family loved making these salt dough Easter eggs so much - it’s become a tradition. They’re made from items you most likely have in the house already, and they were a total homerun with my girls. They spent hours giggling, painting, and showing off their finished designs. Just what we needed to pause and enjoy life. Editor’s Tip: If you don’t have an egg-shape cookie cutter, use a glass or round cookie cutter to create a circle. Then gently use your fingers to form it into an egg shape. Editor’s Tip: If you’re decorating these with young kids, try using washable tempera paint. I found it worked just as well as acrylic and I didn’t stress when my 2-year-old dropped her paintbrush on the floor.
