Easter is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate than by making your own beautiful fabric-covered eggs? In this tutorial, we’ll guide you through the step-by-step process of covering Styrofoam Easter eggs with fabric. Not only is this a fun and crafty activity, but it also makes for gorgeous Easter decorations that will impress your friends and family.

What You’ll Need

Before we start, let’s make sure you have all the necessary materials:

  • Styrofoam Easter eggs
  • Fabric of your choice
  • Scissors
  • Mod Podge glue
  • Paintbrush
  • Ribbon or string (optional)
  • Decorative embellishments (optional)

Step 1: Prepare Your Materials

Begin by cutting your chosen fabric into small squares or rectangular pieces. The size depends on the size of your Styrofoam eggs, but aim for around 2-3-inch squares.

Step 2: Apply Mod Podge Glue

Use a paintbrush to apply a thin, even layer of Mod Podge glue onto the Styrofoam egg. Make sure you cover the entire surface as this will help the fabric stick and prevent any wrinkles.

Step 3: Attach the Fabric

Place a fabric square on the glued area, gently pressing it down to adhere it to the Styrofoam egg. Smooth out any wrinkles or air bubbles with your fingers. Repeat this process, adding more fabric squares until the entire egg is covered. You can use one fabric pattern or mix and match various prints for a more eclectic look.

Step 4: Secure the Edges

To ensure your fabric stays in place, apply a thin layer of Mod Podge over the edges of each fabric piece using a paintbrush. This will create a protective seal and prevent the fabric from peeling off.

Step 5: Add Decorative Touches

If you wish to add a little extra flair to your fabric-covered eggs, now is the time to do so. Consider tying a small ribbon or string around the egg’s top as a hanger or attaching decorative embellishments like beads, sequins, or feathers for a festive touch.

Step 6: Let It Dry

Allow the Mod Podge glue to completely dry. This usually takes a few hours, so be patient! Once dry, your fabric-covered eggs are ready to be displayed as beautiful Easter decorations.

Now that you know how to cover Styrofoam Easter eggs with fabric, let your creativity shine and experiment with different fabrics and decorations. These handmade eggs will surely add a charming touch to your Easter celebrations!
