We just finished up our washi tape eggs and decided we’d make a few glitter tape eggs too. Read on to see how we made these super cute Easter decorations.
After our recent activity, which involved cutting all sorts of different items (and improved the little one’s cutting skills), we thought we’d keep with the cutting theme and incorporate some glitter tape and decorate some paper eggs for Easter. If you’ve signed up for our online newsletter, you have access to our entire resource library which holds all of our digital downloads and printables. If you haven’t signed up yet, we suggest signing up today so you can access those files. We’ve included a copy of our egg template used in this glitter tape egg craft (in two different sizes), which makes this craft all that much easier!
What You’ll Need
Egg template
Scissors
Paper
What to Do
Once you’ve printed the egg template, roughly cut out the four eggs, leaving some room around each egg.
Next, choose your glitter tape and place a strip of it on the egg. Continue doing so until the entire egg is covered in glitter tape. Press firmly down on the tape to ensure it is properly adhered.
Now, turn the egg over so that you can better see the black outline of the egg and cut around it.
Once cut out, you could also attach a piece of twine to the back if desired.
The possibilities are endless with this craft. You could try making a pattern with different colored glitter tape, attach the tape in vertical, horizontal, diagonal, or random lines, or even cut out shapes from the glitter tape to make polka dots, faces, or zig zags.
