Gold Leaf Easter Eggs: Easy diy gold and pastel Easter eggs.

I’m really loving gold lately. I was a little reluctant to jump right into the gold trend in the beginning, since I have so much silver. But, part of the trend is mixing and matching, so I’ve finally gone for it. I can’t wait to show you my gold inspired Easter table a little later, but for now here’s another little project I’ve fallen in love with -Gold Leaf Easter Eggs.

Gold Leaf Easter Eggs: Easy diy gold and pastel Easter eggs.

Supplies:

  • plastic Easter eggs
  • craft paint
  • gold leaf (I used imitation)
  • gold leaf adhesive

I started out with some craft eggs. They worked really well -they are very paintable, unlike a normal plastic Easter egg, and I also love that they’re not breakable so I’ll have them for years to come. Just give your eggs a coat or two of paint in any pretty Easter colour.

After the paint is dry, apply the gold leaf adhesive, and let it set for 15 min., according to the package instructions. The key to remember is not to entirely coat the egg with the adhesive, so that some of the paint colour still shows through. When it’s set, apply the gold leaf.

I hung mine on some branches in a pretty milk glass vase. I’m smitten.

    Very pretty and I have some gold leaf left over from the days when I used to decorate goose eggs! Looking forward to seeing your Easter table – I bet it will look stunning – as usual

Instagram post 2195492363661344441_202589158 Yesterday I worked on creating this rustic Christmas tablescape. It turned out so well and every time I walked by, it had me looking forward to Christmas dinner.  The new plates are from Target... a Christmas present so I should be ok using them Christmas Day. ;) The napkins from @cuddlesomecotton are my new favourite and those thrifted vintage brass napkins ring -a reason to keep on thrifting!  Have you thought about your Christmas table yet?

Instagram post 2193321229457068731_202589158 Today on the blog and in stories I’m sharing some amazing charitable gift ideas like this one. Make a donation through @mccpeace to help plant cocao trees in a developing country and help change lives forever. We baked some of our Easy One Bowl Brownies and added this sweet gift tag that’s available for free download on the blog. Check it out along with three more fun charitable hostess gift ideas and free gift tags. Instead of more junk that no one really needs this Christmas how about giving something that can really make a difference long after the holidays are done.
