How to Glue Leaves on Dyed Easter Eggs

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Gary for Expert Village. Once the egg is drained, I'm just going to show you one way to decorate the outside of the egg. We're going to put some glue onto the egg a little bit and this glue is going to also dry clear, it's a white glue that we're using. Then we go ahead and just lay some leaves across the egg. Now this is where the actual leaves and flowers that we use becomes important, because we're going to be leaving them on the egg. So we really want to pick some nice colors and make a nice decoration as oppose to the other eggs we're making that just puts the imprints of the leaves and the flowers. So we just go ahead and put in some nice shapes and then we go ahead and we find a nice stand for the eggs. We can just put a little bit of colorful straw in the basket and we can place these eggs inside. But this is just one way to decorate a shell. Of course there is many ways using different types of colors and shapes and textures. This really is considered in many places an art form and it gives you a real chance to be creative. The fact that it is on an egg is a very interesting type of canvas for a piece of art."
