During the snow storm yesterday we were channeling Spring with some Easter crafts. We made two types of eggs. One with string / yarn and the other on paper.
The instructions are pretty good. Here are some hints I found helpful:
- For the eggs on paper – instead of compromising an entire bottle of glue and turning it black. I used a frosting technique, I placed a plastic bag in a glass and poured in equal parts white glue and black paint. Then I cut off the corner of the plastic bag and we used that to draw the outline in black.
- For the eggs made with sting and yarn – The yarn was better because it was thicker as a result covering more of the balloon. We should have used more embroidery floss on a couple, they turned out very fragile.
