This simple Easter craft is great for kids and adults alike, offering a low-mess and creative way to colour eggs without the hassle of traditional dye. These Sharpie eggs are ideal for Easter baskets, egg hunts, or as a festive addition to your spring decorations.

Helpful Tips:

Are these Sharpie eggs messy to make?

For the most part, any mess made when making these tie dye eggs is contained in the plastic wrap. Placing the plastic wrap on a baking sheet can help prevent permanent marker stains on your table. However, if you’re crafting with kids, things might get a little messier. To minimize stains, have kids wear nitrile gloves to keep Sharpie ink off their hands. Smocks, aprons, or old clothes are also a great idea to protect clothing from accidental stains while decorating these vibrant Easter eggs.

Do the eggs have to be hard boiled before making Sharpie Easter eggs?

Hard boiling your eggs before dying them with Sharpies makes them a lot more durable for Easter egg hunts. Plus, if any eggs break during the decorating process, it won’t cause a big mess! However, hard boiling is optional for this craft. And if you’d like to keep your Sharpie tie dye Easter eggs as lasting keepsakes, consider blowing out the eggs first using the method from our DIY galaxy Easter eggs tutorial. Then after the markers dry, seal your eggs with an acrylic spray sealer. This will preserve your vibrant design and give your Easter eggs a glossy finish. You should also be able to use the same technique on dyable craft eggs.

Can I eat my Sharpie Easter eggs after I make them?

These Sharpie tie dye Easter eggs are for decoration only and are not edible. In order to be able to eat Easter eggs after dying them, they must be coloured with a food-grade dye. Since neither Sharpie markers nor rubbing alcohol are safe for consumption, they are considered not safe to eat. These Sharpie tie dye Easter eggs are the perfect DIY craft to brighten up your spring celebration! With endless colour combinations and creative patterns, each egg becomes a one-of-a-kind piece that adds vibrant charm to your Easter decor. Whether you showcase them in a decorative bowl, add them to Easter baskets, or hide them for a fun egg hunt, these Sharpie tie dye eggs will bring excitement and colour to your holiday!
