Faberge eggs were created for the czar’s wife by a Russian artist and they caused quite a stir because everyone else all over the world wanted one as well. They were so beautiful and highly sought after and I had always had a fascination with them since I was a child. I was so glad to see this excellent video on Youtube explaining how to make a replica of one of these eggs, I gathered my materials together and couldn’t wait to get started. I got all my supplies from Michael’s Craft Store and used my 40% off coupons, so this project was super affordable as well. You are not going to believe how easy this project is, I literally did it in two steps and it was so fun. The best part about it is that you end up with a very classy looking elegant egg that looks beautiful with your home decor.

Materials:

  • Craft Egg (from Hobby Lobby or Michael’s)
  • Antique Gold Craft Paint (Michael’s or Hobby Lobby)
  • Paper Studio Gem brand Stickers (Michael’s or Hobby Lobby)

Directions:

First, paint your egg gold, I use a regular bristle brush, but you can also use a foam brush, it will work fine.

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
