Here's what you'll need:

We HIGHLY recommend using Elmer’s white glue. We originally tried this craft using generic dollar store glue and it didn’t work.

When painting the eggs, just use a very gentle dabbing motion. Just barely touch the brush to the salt and glue. It’s so fun to watch the colors spread!
