Today, I’m going to share another fun Easter DIY with all of you!

After painting these adorable scalloped eggs last week, I wanted to create another set that looked a little more natural — something I could leave out all spring. So, I came up with these moody speckled eggs!

They were easy and fun to make, but it can get a little messy. Make sure to set up a covered area before you get started!


What you will need

PLASTIC OR WOOD EGGS | PAINT | PAINT BRUSH | EGG CARTON


How to

  1. Grab a set of plastic or wood eggs and pick out some moody paint colors! I used white plastic eggs and six different paint colors.

  2. Wipe down the eggs if needed. Mine came with some dust in the packaging, so I made sure to clean them before painting.

  3. Divide your eggs into groups (assuming you want an even number of eggs in each color). Since I planned on using six paint colors, I divided my 24 eggs into six groups of four.

  4. Paint each egg one solid color first. Use an egg carton to help them dry.

  5. Once dried, you can start speckling! Grab a brush, dip it in paint and use your finger to flick the bristles onto the egg. I would suggest doing this very gently at first until you get the hang of it!

  6. Again, use the egg carton to help hold and dry your eggs.

  7. When you’ve speckled to your heart’s content, you can start decorating your home with these cute natural-looking eggs!


    I love how these eggs turned out. They look perfect with my other decor! Have fun, get messy and create some speckled eggs for your own home!
