Mini Eggs

NOTE: This is an old post about some Easter stuff I did back in 2022. I didn’t post this originally because I never finished taking the pictures for it, and it was gonna be late anyways. I’m posting it now because I think these little eggs came out really adorable, and I wanted to share them with you. Just keep in mind while reading that this is old, and that it’s missing a few pictures!

Hello everyone! Today I have two different miniature egg designs that I made, a little late, but that’s alright. Similar to last years, when I made some little clay eggs, this year I made more eggs out of clay, but added a few more details.

The first are little speckled eggs, which I have been wanting to do for a while. Actually, I think I meant to do this to last year’s eggs, but never got around to it 😅. But they did come out really cute, and they look better than I thought they would.

So, I started off by just making plain eggs out of my clay. I made quite a few, with a variety of colors, including some gold ones as you can see, which I did not speckle.

Then I brought them outside to splatter with some dark brown paint. I used a toothbrush, which I think worked pretty well, although I had to use a lot of paint to get the type of specks that I wanted. But it’s not like I’m a professional paint splatterer either, so I don’t know 😜.

Anyways, then I just let them dry, and they came out great!

The other kind I did was some chocolate eggs. I made some brown chocolate looking clay. It was a bit of a challenge, and I mixed a lot of colors until I realized black mixed with a chestnut brown color, came out almost perfect.

The whole reason I even did these ones was because I was cleaning out my easter basket, and saw the many foil chocolate wrappers, and I thought that mini chocolate eggs would be adorable. So, I flattened them out, and then just wrapped tiny little pieces onto the mini eggs. It worked quite well.

And with all these little eggs, I set up an Easter egg hunt in my dollhouse, with an Easter basket just overflowing with candy!

And that will be all! Thanks for reading!
