Enviable Egg

She’s under-stated, she’s well put together, she wears all black; the kind of egg you’d try to emulate, but the effect turns out more shabby than chic.

Getting ready for Easter! Hope you’re all enjoying your Easter long weekend! Ps. Painting on an egg is SUPER hard 😅

HAPPPPPPY EASTER 🍫🐰🐣 made these little chocolate eggs last night which are simply - 2 tbsp peanut butter, 2 tbsp cacao powder, 2 tbsp coconut sugar & splash of any milk. Heated on the hob, poured into an Easter stencils, then add toppings of your choice! I chose cranberries and cacao nibs. Then place in the freezer for at least 1 hour ❤️

Modern Art Egg

À la Pollock? Klimt? It’s abstract art, so you decide! In true modern style, the artist leaves it open for interpretation (and over-indulgence).

Crafty Egg

Who knew red onions, a pair of tights and some leaves are all you need to create stunning, naturally-dyed eggs at home? Why not try this yourself this Easter!

As a child I thought our eggs were so lifeless and lame. All I wanted were the bright coloured eggs like the Easter Bunny. Now that I'm older I'm so happy my mom showed me her childhood method. I appreciate the beauty of them now. . . 🐰Peel about 10 red onions worth and add just enough water to cover in a pot. Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 mins. 🐰Cut pantyhose and tie it closed on one side with thread. Dip a leaf in water and place on a white egg then wrap the pantyhose around the egg tight! Tie off the other end. 🐰Place eggs in pot with a mild simmer for 15 mins. Once done run eggs under cold water to reduce head and quickly cut the pantyhose sacks and remove leaf. 🐰Let them sit in cold water for 5 minutes to cool completely.

Posh Egg

Never one to settle for less, Waitrose have opted for a modern geometric style egg in a bid to have eggs more aesthetic than your average treat. They’re also sprayed with a golden shimmer, accompanied by gianduja chocolates, that are literally cut like diamonds, so if only the fanciest egg will do – voilà.

“This is Contemporary Art” Egg

Moving away from chocolate, sculptor Gavin Turk has installed a two metre egg on the River Terrace of Somerset House in London, but the artwork doesn’t end there: he’s also collecting visitors’ Instagram selfies with the egg to compile into an exhibition. If that’s not multimedia, interactive, and down-with-the-kids Easter fun, I don’t know what is. #Contemporary #art.
