Add some fun and colorful decor to your Easter Holiday this year with this super easy Easter Egg Rainbow Ombre garland made with none other than paint swatches. If you’ve got some free paint samples on hand, you can make this fun and colorful Easter DIY in 15 minutes or less, and for FREE!
If you disagree with taking a whole bunch of colored paint swatches from your local Home Depot or Walmart, than you’re gonna want to exit stage right because we’re ’bout to get crafty up in here with a whole heck of a lot of those cute and colorful samples!
Honestly, they’re free, it’s totally not stealing and I don’t go up to the paint section and grab 300 samples. No, you grab a few of each color swatch here and there every time you go, so that you’re collecting them over a span of time, duh! There are so many fun crafts you can make with these, so if you haven’t already, head to Walmart and grab you some so you can make this Rainbow Ombre Easter Egg Garland. Here’s the type of paint samples that I’ve been collecting from Walmart.
This Rainbow Ombre Easter Egg Garland is easy enough for the kiddos to make, and who cares if they mess up a few of the free swatches, you can always repurpose them for another kids craft. Print a free Easter Egg template from good ‘ole Google, have the littles trace it onto the swatches and help to cut them out. It’s a perfect family craft to do this Easter, and it looks so adorable with the Rainbow Bunny sign we made last week too!
This DIY was one of the easiest that I’ve done and I’ve got a video tutorial that you can watch right HERE to make one for your home this Easter. Or you can watch it below. This was so easy, you could make it in about 15 minutes!
