Learn how to use your Cricut to transform plain wooden Easter eggs into unique holiday decor that you will want to display year after year!

how to make Customizing Wood Easter Eggs from Michaels:
Remove the stickers from the wooden eggs and wrap the edges with washi tape.
Paint the edges of each egg and let dry, then repeat with a second coat.
In Design Space, type “easter egg” in the search bar and you will find TONS of options! I just picked my three favorites – one for each egg.
Resize the egg images to fit the eggs, then “attach” the images (they will turn the same color) so you can cut them all on one piece of vinyl.
Cut the images and weed out the excess vinyl. Apply the transfer tape to the images, then the images to each egg. And voila!
Now, if you need some written instructions, then we have you covered! Check out the instructions box below to see all of the details for this project. Plus, you can even print them or pin them to your favorite Pinterest board!
