Look of Stained Glass Egg Paperweight

 

These paper weights are so much fun and so quick and easy to create.

I used a large goose egg although you can use any size egg you have.

Cut off the bottom of the egg so it will sit flat ( a Dremel tool works great to cut the egg ). Trace around the egg on poster board and cut out the circle to be used when finished.

Use any colors of Piņata paints you like and cover the egg. Let colors run together to achieve the stained glass look. Let dry. Spray with several coats of high gloss clear spray to seal the colors.

Fill the egg with sand. Glue the poster board circle to the bottom. Glue braid around the bottom edge to decorate.

The Pinata Paints can be found on my Open Stock page.


I hope you enjoy my designs and continue to seek your own creativity! For information on contract design work, please feel free to send me an email!
