Easter Decoupage Eggs
- Separate the layers of napkin, so it is only one printed layer.
- Cut out the pattern and pieces you want to add to the eggs.
- Apply a thin layer of Mod Podge on the egg, slightly larger than the cut pieces, and gently put the pieces of napkin on top.
- Let it dry for a few seconds and then add a second layer of Mod Podge over top, making sure to fully cover the edges of the napkin pieces.
- Let the egg fully dry for 10-15 minutes.
