Supplies You’ll Need
To get started, gather the following:
- Craft eggs
- Paper napkins Get them here
- Mod Podge (matte finish)
- Paint brush
Tip: Choose napkins with a small floral pattern. This helps with a smooth and pretty finish on your eggs.
Step 1: Cut Out Your Napkin Design
Start by cutting out the pattern from your napkins. This part is fun because you are getting to design your eggs to be unique.
The key here is to keep your pieces small and manageable—smaller designs are much easier to apply smoothly to the curved surface of the egg.
If you’re using a 2-ply napkin, gently separate the layers and use only the top printed layer. This helps keep your design thin and easier to work with.
Step 2: Apply the Napkin to the Egg
Add a small dot of Mod Podge to your egg and place your napkin piece on top.
For a smoother application, you can mix in a tiny drop of water with your Mod Podge. This helps it glide on more easily and prevents tearing.
Step 3: Smooth and Seal
Using your paintbrush, gently brush over the napkin with Mod Podge. Work slowly and carefully, smoothing out wrinkles as you go.
Tip: Don’t panic if there are a few wrinkles—your egg will look much better once the Mod Podge dries!
Styling Your Decoupage Easter Eggs

- Add charm to your Easter table
