When decorating eggs, you can give complete freedom to your fantasies and ideas.... Everything is done very easily, so it will not give you any difficulties. A great option would be to think over various applications, patterns, etc. You can try a variety of design options.

Easter Eggs Stickers should not be pretentious, with some strange ornaments and ideas. Still, you need to adhere to the concept of the holiday and use something calm, but interesting, that does not violate the plot itself for Easter.

There are many egg stickers. And they are all unique and also perfect for decoration. Let's take a look at a few basic examples of decorative elements.

• Church symbolism. This is the most accurate and accurate choice of decoration stickers. And each of the images has its own meaning. The picture of the cross is a symbol of resurrection and suffering, a broken cross is protection from evil spirits and evil spirits, a star is the eternal love or mercy of the Virgin Mary, a bird is the personification of life, a dove is the symbolism of an angel, and an angel is the purity of the soul.

• Volumetric... You can buy this type of sticker in a store or make it yourself. To do this, you need to take cardboard and give freedom to your imagination. It is better not to take colored paper for these purposes, because it is thin and tears very easily. One picture per egg will be enough, so you don't have to glue it completely.

• With a unicorn... This idea is perfect for decorating eggs with children. This idea looks very nice and interesting. To implement it, you need to make two small ears out of felt, buy or make small flowers to make something like a wreath out of them. All this is pasted, and then the eyes are drawn. They can be open or closed. Everything is at your discretion.

• Holographic... An unusual decoration option that will bring peace, love, happiness to the family. These stickers shimmer very beautifully.

• Paper... Working with these stickers is called decoupage technique. You need to take a nice paper napkin and glue it to the egg using glue or egg white. Napkins can be combined with various patterns, designs and additional decorations. If you choose beautiful openwork napkins, you can achieve an unusual and delicate design.

• Transferable... The image can be any, be it dragonflies, butterflies, any inscriptions and even patterns.

• Angels... This is an equally creative idea. To implement it, draw an outline and an angel figurine on white cardboard or a blank sheet of paper. Color it the way you want. Now we will make the arms and wings. The arms are two strips that should turn out so as to wrap around the egg. Add palms if desired. The wings are also drawn and cut out. You need to glue them in bulk, because it looks much more interesting.

Any color has its own meaning, which is worth remembering.

• Green color means a good harvest, nature.

• Red basically has an association with the blood of Jesus Christ, but it is he who gives joy, the hope that everything will be well. In addition, it reminds of the love and favor of God. The red egg is a real Easter attribute.

• Orange and yellow colors tune in to a rich harvest, denote wealth and warmth. Gold shades can also be attributed to this value.

• Brown immediately resembles the earth, which gives strength.

• Any shades blue flowers mean love for one's neighbor, because they are a symbol of kindness and a manifestation of the hope of the Virgin Mary.

Everyone knows how to use ordinary stickers: you need to choose the place where you will place them, think over the composition. But how to use and glue the thermal stickers correctly, so that everything is smooth, neat and beautiful, many do not know. This process will be quick and will not take much of your time. Consider the instructions for use.

• Boiling eggs. First, you need to boil the eggs for a certain number of persons according to your preference. Choose eggs that are white. This will make the stickers look brighter and more interesting, and you get great contrast. It is worth paying attention to the size of the eggs. It is best to choose them in medium size, because the large ones may not fit in the sticker, and the small ones will slip out.

• Choice of stickers... There are so many different subjects to choose from: with different patterns, cartoon characters, etc. You don't have to use just one type of sticker. Eggs can be made different. But if you have a specific topic, then choose everything in relation to it.

• Preparation... Cut the sticker tape into several pieces. Dry the eggshells to prevent the wrapping tape from curling.

• Placement of the sticker. Take a cold egg and put a sticker on it (this way it will not deform). It should be right in the middle for everything to go well. In this way, defects can be avoided.

• Anchoring... Place the eggs in boiling water for 10-15 seconds and then remove. Now dry them with a towel and you're done.

Difficulties can arise with "translation stickers". Such stickers are made as transfer tattoos. To translate everything beautifully, first the stickers are cut out with small indents from the contour of the drawings. Then they are applied to the eggs and blotted with a damp sponge or towel. The picture is not always translated the first time. If something does not work out, then practice and try again.

Now let's look at the gluing process in more detail.

Boil the eggs before using any decals. To do this, you need the following:

• water (use filtered water to avoid the formation of foam, which can then cover the shell ugly);
• cooking utensils;
• salt (half or a tablespoon).

Let's start the cooking process. Pre-wash the eggs from excess dirt under running water. Now, depending on what result you want to get (hard boiled egg or in a bag), you need to cook the eggs for 3 to 10 minutes. If the finished product is eaten by children, then it must be cooked for at least 10-15 minutes, because there is a possibility that poorly cooked eggs can cause salmonellosis.

The water must be salted, so that later the shell can easily move away from the protein. Add about half or a whole tablespoon of salt to 500 ml of water. Do not choose a pot that is too large, and add water until the eggs are completely covered with it. This will shorten the boiling time of the liquid, which will speed up the process.

To prevent the eggs from cracking, they are initially placed in cold water and placed on the stove.... This is due to the fact that cracks appear with a sharp change in temperature. When the eggs are ready, the pan is placed under cold water for a few minutes and only after that they begin to decorate.

Before using the stickers, you can boil the eggs in the dye. This can be done either with food dyes or onion peels. Or you can leave them intact with paint altogether.

You can decorate eggs in a variety of ways. If you use sticky rhinestones, then you can lay out some interesting pattern. With the help of strings, you can wrap an egg around, which looks cool too. And if you choose colors that match, you get a unique design. Beautiful ribbons are also suitable for this purpose.

You can also paint on eggs. Crayons are ideal for this purpose. First, you can draw the desired pattern, and then color the egg or leave it as it is. If you don't have a talent for drawing, or you just don't know how, then you can use paper stencils and draw with them. You can create any pattern, from geometric shapes to animal-style prints.

You can use gold or silver sheets as stickers. You need to apply glue to the egg and attach a sheet. The excess material is then removed. You can also wear the most common stickers. The main thing is that they do not turn out to be too large, as it will not look interesting.

Another good decorating idea is to use decorative tape. They can completely glue the egg over and get a pattern. Stickers with glittery or shiny additions work well too. They will add some "flavor" to the decorated object.
