Easter Craftiness





So today we outdid ourselves with the Easter craftiness... As anyone who has young toddlers knows, generally boisterous young children plus food dye plus eggs isn't the wisest idea, but somehow it worked out quite well and all involved got away virtually unscathed!
In the spirit of doing something a little different for Easter and rather than buying something bland off the production line, we decided to make dip-dyed eggs. You remember the kind, where you poke a hole either end and blow the gooey bits (and your lungs!) out and draw Easter-egg-inspired patterns on the shell?
What started out as 12 plain eggs in a box, turned into 10 (one got dropped, and another blew up in my friend's face!) beautiful and individual works of art. And at the end of the day, I really can't tell which ones the kids made, and which ones the adults did.


Happy Easter!
