10. Colorful resin egg
Make a colorful egg with different types of glitters and small rocks. Fish tank rocks or small tumbled rocks are perfect for this.
11. transparent epoxy egg
By adding just a hint of alcohol ink colors, you can really make some cool effects that are transparent. When using alcohol inks in resin a little goes a very long way.
So instead of dropping the inks in, try using a stir stick to add just a tiny bit and see if you like that first. Then you can add more if you need to.
12. Gold Alcohol ink resin egg
To get this look, you will need gold alcohol ink. Prepare the resin and pour it into the mold. Then take a tiny bit of gold alcohol ink and gently stir it into the middle.
By not completely mixing it in, it will spread a bit and make some really gorgeous designs.
13. Glow in the dark resin egg
Glow in the dark powder is so fun to use in resin art. A little goes a long way too. And it’s not very expensive. You will need to charge up the egg by putting in light so that it will glow at night. Check out these glow in the dark pigments for resin.
14. White & Gold resin egg
This one is my favorites, it has white paint and gold glitter in it. When you put it by the light, the glitters look like they are lit up. The white swirls are so pretty.
15. Blue & White resin egg
With some blue and white pigments, you can create an easy epoxy egg that is good for beginners to try. For this, mix the resin and then add the blue pigment and mix until you get the desired look.
Next, add in the white pigment and mix just until it makes swirls. Not too much or it will mix in with the blue and just look like a light blue egg. Then pour this mixture in the resin mold.
16. Glittery Holographic egg
This epoxy egg idea is really cool because you can use glitter and holographic powders to create different effects. I get really excited about all of the possibilities for making resin creations.

Lastly, here is an egg that has just transparent resin dyes and different kinds of glitter.
how to make a resin egg
Materials Needed
- Epoxy resin
- Silicone egg molds
- Mixing & measuring cups
- Stir sticks
- Protective nitrile gloves
- Respirator mask
- Colorants, glitters, glow in the dark powders
- Small items to embed like polymer clay slices or fireglass
Step 1: Prepare Your Workspace
Set up your workspace in a well-ventilated area. Cover your table with a disposable cover to protect it from spills. Make sure all your materials are within reach.
Step 2: Measure and Mix Resin
Put on your protective gloves and respirator mask. Measure equal parts of resin and hardener according to the instructions on the package.
The best resin for this type of craft is to use a casting resin. Pour them into a mixing cup and stir slowly for about 2-3 minutes until thoroughly combined.
Sometimes you might want to get rid of any bubbles, but this is up to you. The best way to do this is to use a bubble remover machine.
Step 3: Add Colorants and Additives (Optional)
If you want to add color or glitter to your resin, now is the time. Pour a small amount of mixed resin into separate cups and mix in your colorants or glitter.
Or you can pour the clear resin into the egg and then add your inclusions. That’s the fun part, playing with different ways to make cool designs.
Step 4: Pour Resin into Molds
Slowly pour the mixed resin into your silicone egg molds. If you’re using colorants, you can pour in layers or swirl the colors for different effects. Tap the molds gently to release any air bubbles.
Step 5: Add Embedded Items (Optional)
If you want to embed small items like flowers, glitter, or trinkets, place them into the resin-filled molds. Use a long silicone stir stick to position them where you want. Just be careful not to introduce bubbles into the mold. Again, you can use a bubble remover machine or even a resin pressure pot if you are doing this for a living.
Step 6: Cure the Resin
Let the resin cure according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually takes 24-48 hours. Place the molds in a dust-free area where they won’t be disturbed.
Step 7: Demold the Resin Eggs
Once the resin is fully cured, carefully remove the eggs from the silicone molds. If the eggs are still slightly flexible, let them cure for a bit longer. Be careful not to rip the mold. We have an article about how to demold resin.
Step 8: Sand and Finish (Optional)
If needed, sand any rough edges on your resin eggs using fine-grit sandpaper. You can also polish the resin for a smoother finish.
Step 9: Display or Sell Your Resin Eggs
Your resin eggs are now ready! Display them proudly or package them nicely for selling. Enjoy sharing your beautiful creations with others. See our guide on how to start a resin business.
