My 12 and 14 year old daughters made these for COVID-19 Easter. Acrylic paint works best. They painted them completely and then went back and put inspirational words on later. The cute little paper baskets make it a complete Easter project. Please watch their video for a crafty ideas.

These worked well for me. I painted them gold for a costume prop. They are slightly larger than your average egg, and not all of mine were totally smooth. They were perfect for my intended use. They are quite sturdy.

Was able to use it even on spinning Easter coloring tool I got for real eggs. Didn’t waste eggs (especially since corona virus has us stuck at home) and kids are able to keep eggs forever.

I bought them to paint and decoupage, then put on a wreath and they were just what I was looking for.

Just the size I was looking for, about large/jumbo chicken egg size. You get 6 for a great price. They came quickly and in great condition. I would gladly buy again if needed.

Fine product, but hard for kids to decorate

Probably great for many things! Not great for decorating with kids!

I thought these would be fun to decorate with my elementary school aged kids to let them display or give away to friends (since they aren't refrigerated.) These eggs look nice and the quality is okay, but my kids found them really hard to decorate with normal art supplies (i.e. markers, crayons, etc.) It may have just been my kids, but they struggled with the shape of the eggs when trying to color on them and the eggs didn't seem to really absorb marker well.

These would probably work great for other projects or if a teen or adult were coloring them.

Fun for craft projects

I initially bought these so I can paint them and use the painted eggs as a decorative piece in my living room. I've gotten a lot of compliments from friends on the eggs and requests from them to make some for their own homes with their own color themes, so I've purchased these a few times now. Works great and is less fragile than real eggs...once they're painted, people can't tell they're not real.
