Hi there,

My idea behind these eggs was I always liked the look of faberge eggs

so I thought I would make my own version of them and add them as a decor for Easter or just give them away for a Easter gift..

So I started off with plastic eggs from the 2 dollar store and covered them in gesso..I done a few coats of gesso so you couldn’t see the plastic anymore then I used some paper clay and one of the iod moulds and add them around the center of the eggs while still wet and glued them on

Then I added a few more coats of gesso, then a coat of 3d matte gel over the top of the mounded clay

then I sprinkled glitter on the wet 3d gel

Then next I painted the gees with pink paints then I added flowers ,crystals ,cotton threads... I used 3d matte gel to add beads around the flowers then used another Mould I created the base for the eggs to sit on and they were painted with gold..... you can see all the product at the bottom of my post
