These fun little fried eggs are the perfect spring or Easter decoration — and they’re super easy to make!
Start by rolling out your air-dry clay to about 0.5 cm thick. You can either freehand the egg shape or use a template to cut it out. Once you have your base shape, smooth the edges with your fingers or a damp sponge.
Next, make a small ball of clay, cut it in half, and use one half as your egg yolk. Score both the yolk and the center of the egg shape with a toothpick or tool, then attach them together with a bit of water or slip.
Don’t forget to poke a hole at the top if you want to hang it later!
Let your fried egg dry completely (this may take 24–48 hours), then give it a light sanding to smooth it out.
Now comes the fun part — painting!
You can go for the classic look (white egg with an orange yolk) or get creative with fun spring colors. Once the paint is dry, thread a string through the hole and tie it so you can hang it on your Easter tree or around the house!
Cute, easy, and full of spring vibes!
