All you need to make these typographic eggs is a sheet of stickers! No messy dyes, no fancy tricks, just plain and simple black stickers.

Aren’t they adorable? Just boil some eggs, choose your favorite font, and stick away. The best part is, you can make them say whatever you like! We love the look of the modern black and white, but any sticker colors will do. And did we mention that these are non-toxic? No more worrying about the dyes seeping into the eggs, these stickers come right off with the shells and leave you with deliciously un-touched hard boiled eggs.

Supplies:
– Tea Towels
– Flower stamps or alphabet stamps
– A paint brush

– Cardboard

Directions:
1. Wash and dry tea towels.
2. Arrange a tea towel over a piece of cardboard (so that any paint that may seep through does not ruin your work surface).
3. Using the paintbrush, paint a thin layer of paint on a stamp. Test this stamp on a paper plate or a piece of scrap fabric to see if you like the paint thickness.
4. Stamp the towel and let dry completely!

To make the “Be Yourself” tea towel, we taped off the section where we wanted the words to go and marked off where each letter would fit. We also tested it on a piece of cardstock first to see how the letters would need to be spaced out. Have fun with it! The handmade look is the best part!

For the floral tea towel, we started the stamping at one of the corners of the towel. We stamped the flowers in a concentrated pattern in the corner and made them more spread out as we worked our way up.
