Jewel Encrusted Easter Eggs

Left, plastic gems used for this easy craft. Right the finished result in 3D.

      I encrusted these jeweled Easter eggs with plastic gems that I purchased from a hobby store. Before adhering the "gems" to the plastic eggs with a tacky white glue, I roughed up the egg's surfaces with sandpaper. It is important to remember to match the color of plastic egg with the same color as the plastic gem. This will make the final crafted egg look like it is professionally made.

Fake or faux gems in the center of each puffy cross sticker really dress up this Easter craft!

       To make the ''Sparkly Cross'' cardboard eggs above you will need to cut out several cardboard egg shaped pieces. Use white school glue to apply the glittery fabric on first, then adhere the cross stickers with a tacky craft glue. The stickers will not stay in place without extra adhesive otherwise. I found this particular set at a Dollar Store.
