Unfortunately, now that my kids are teens, this method of egg decorating has lost its excitement and I have to think of ways to make old traditions new again. If you’re in the same boat and are looking for different ways to decorate Easter eggs, you’re in the right place because I’m sharing a round-up of 15 Creative Ways to Decorate Easter Eggs that doesn’t involve any egg dyes.
