I wanted to put up a quick weekend post to show one of many craft projects that have been filling our house of late. Since I can’t (for secretive reasons) show almost any of them, I thought I’d at least show the beginning stages of our egg-blowing session last week. We haven’t decorated them yet, but probably will later on this week or tomorrow evening. Since man-go-round had only a few minutes to participate and I have limited lung capacity (without keeling over) and attention span, we made 4 egg/eggshells.

Then, after they are dry you are free to decorate them as you please! Some of my ideas are:

• sparkle-bomb them with glue and bright colors of glitter
• Use tissue/ crepe paper and mod podge to make a mosaic style egg
• take a sharpie to them for a freehand henna style egg
• polka dots (because I can never get enough polka dots)
• traditional egg dye (or the natural dye counterparts I’ve seen on Pinterest)
• self portrait and portrait of man-go-round in miniature…
• after the relative success of Harry Potter Pumpkin last fall… dare I suggest Harry Potter Egghead?

Do you decorate/ dye Easter eggs? What do you think we should do with them?
