Gorgeous Shabby Chic Easter Egg tutorial

March 11, 2013 by Amanda Formaro

Gorgeous Shabby Chic Easter Egg (the actual tutorial link, not just photos!) @craftgossip

It’s quite possible you’ve seen this already on Pinterest. However, my guess is going to be that your experience was the same as mine in that you couldn’t find the tutorial. Instead, you simply had a really long image, all the photos of the process pasted together and uploaded directly to Pinterest. With a little bit of searching and a lot of blowing up the images, I was finally able to read the watermark on the bottom of the photo. It actually had the url of the post on it. Unfortunately it was written in a script type font making the tiny letters very difficult to read. It was on a Japanese site that I found a photo large enough.

It’s disappointing to see images getting grabbed and pasted together like this then pinned to Pinterest. The artist needs to get credit. That artist is Sylvia Serwin from Poland. I know people don’t mean any harm, but it’s simply not fair to the artist. So hopefully today, I can help right that wrong.

So without further delay, here’s the tutorial (you will need a translator, Chrome has one built in) to make these stunning eggs: Crafts Workshop “shabby chic Easter – step by step.

    I didn’t get images on your link. This is one I found in Russian. http://www.liveinternet.ru/users/nadin72/post233785195/

    To track down an original image, google has a great source. Save the image on desktop, then open google images and drag the image onto the search bar. It will then search it for you. I find this really handy on the pins that end up on just an image!

      Hi Kathy, the images are all showing up on her post for me. The Russian site does show the photos, however that’s not the original source. The original source is the link that I provided 🙂

    Thank you for the great find. No I never did see on Pinterest. I also loath finding dead links on that site very frustrating. Can’t count how many times I had to hunt down the proper info. Thank you for taking the time:).

    These are so beautiful. However, there are no pics showing on the website…just a bunch of words in Polish I guess. 🙁 I would love to make these for my sisters for Christmas gifts this year.

      I’m able to see all the photos on her post. Maybe there was a server hiccup, all the photos are there for me.
