Tissue Paper Easter Eggs Craft

Instructions:

  • Draw an egg onto a piece of cardstock or poster board, and then cut out the shape.
  • Next, design the cut out egg by drawing fun patterns on it with a pencil.  This can look like solid stripes, swirly squiggles, circle dots, straight lines, zig zags, and more.
  • Take the sheets of tissue paper and cut them into squares that are about 3 inches in size.  Note:  You’ll need a good amount of tissue paper squares, so either make a lot of small squares before you start or cut them as you need them.
  • Crumple each square of tissue paper into a ball and glue them to the egg.  Follow the design marks by gluing different color pieces to match the patterns on the egg or go crazy and add the crumpled squares in a willy-nilly fashion.  
  • Keep adding crumpled tissue paper balls to the egg until it’s covered with tissue paper.
  • Once the egg is complete, let the glue dry for about an hour.
  • Now that it’s all dry, you can do the other side in the same manner if you would like.  Or not, that’s up to you! 
  • When your work of art is finished, your fluffy tissue paper Egg is ready to be put on display!
