Hi friends,

These cute Beaded Easter Egg Tags are so easy and fun to make! 🐇🐣🥕 They would be a great project to do with the kids.

I found all of my supplies at Hobby Lobby. The wood egg cutouts came in a package of 10 and the little wood Easter icons have a total of 60 pieces. I decided to use pastel chalk paints, but regular acrylic paints would work just as well.

Here’s a tip for getting colored beads at a great deal. Hobby Lobby will have beaded garlands in the seasonal section for most holidays. I try to get them once they are marked down to at least 40% off. Then I just take them off the twine and I have lots of beads to use for other projects. This garland is 6 feet long and I got it for $5.39 – a great deal for adding lots of colors to my bead stash. 🙂

You can see below that the egg cutouts don’t have a hole at the top for attaching the twine and beads. I used my Crop-A-Dile to punch the holes. It’s a great tool that can be used for so much more than just punching holes through card stock.

I painted both sides of the eggs with 2 coats of paint. Using a foam brush will make this step go quickly – just make sure to let the paint dry between coats. I also painted just the front of the little Easter icons with 2 coats of paint. For the orange egg, I added little polka dots using a rounded tip on the handle of a small paintbrush. Once they were dry, I glued them to the Easter eggs using craft glue.

I used natural twine to add the beads to the tags. I put the twine through the hole in the tag and then threaded both ends of the twine through 3 beads. I tied a knot close to the top bead and tied the ends of the twine together to make a hanger.

These Beaded Easter Egg Tags would be so cute attached to an Easter basket. They would also be a great addition to your tiered tray or attached to a sweet stuffed bunny. 🐰🥕🐣
