TBT's Second Egg Decorating Contest

[Blueskyy]

I’m going try to participate a little. The only holiday I got super involved in here was Christmas 2015 or 2016. It was a lot of fun doing the events. I remember one with clues or something. Maybe a site scavenger hunt? Anyway I’m excited!

i’ve got like,, 3 ideas and i’d hate for them to go to waste. c’: i’d obviously only use one idea, of course aha.

unless you paint quail eggs. then you can use all 3

I want to do this but, it's so awkward irl since my family doesn't celebrate easter so I can't buy anything to decorate eggs. The entries look nice though.

 

[Snowifer]

Here's my egg! It was hard getting a good pic of it.

 

[Ossiran]

It's that time of the year already.

lol, sorry about asking so many questions, but can we use clay to mold little add-ons for the egg such as ears?

 

[Cosmic-chan]

@Vrisnem I must ask..why did you guys change your mind on an egg making contest? You guys didn't want to do one I thought..unless I'm thinking of something else.

Why do I feel like we have the same idea when you said ears

Yes, you can!

Are you asking why we skipped this event in 2020? It was related to food shortages at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Did a final round around my house to scour for any round objects and unfortunately I'm still without any egg shaped ones.
Just for amusement here is a quick catalogue of all the objects that were considered.​

- Entire coconut husk. (Too hairy and also way too big)
- Several loose doll heads ( It's not halloweaster so I think staff would kindly escort me out for this)
- Wooden beads (Too small and too round)
- Garden rocks I dug out of my flower pots (Came very close to being egg shaped but they're all flat)
- Old lightbulb (No lightbulb laying chickens exist to my knowledge)

I'm now wondering if it would be possible to mash up paper towels and glue and mold it in to an egg shape.
May have to investigate this possibility.​

The acceptable bases are outlined in the OP. We will not be accepting any alternatives.

Ok, I think we are looking at the one to watch

 

[King koopa]

[OtakuTrash]

This is wonderful! I have a question. Can I make a crocheted Easter egg and perhaps I can insert a styrofoam egg or fiber fill inside?

 

[Stnh]

I'm not decorating eggs this year

I'm afraid not. The task has been specifically designed around decorating the egg itself.

 

[kayleee]

OMG I forgot all about the brutal tbt egg hunt until this post and now I’m TRIGGERED!!!!! I can’t wait to stare at the clues until my brain hurts lmao

Ok, I understand. Thank you!

went to the store and got my craft eggs so now I just have to get to crafting for real

quick question, are we allowed to cut out little pieces of paper and stick them to the egg as decoration?

Not necessarily! Not all of TBT's talented artists take commissions or post their work outside of events. It's also worth noting that events like this one rely a lot on ingenuity rather than simply being a good artist. Creating something unique, clever, and/or funny will definitely draw the eye even if the execution isn't flawless. It's anyone's game.

Yes you may!
