Easter Eggs

Hello crafty people!

Today I'm showing you a bit of our Easter egg

coloring from 2021.
Marie colored her own eggs and we had 

an egg coloring contest.

We each colored and decorated an egg in 

whatever way we wanted, then I put pictures up on

Facebook and the judging commenced.

See below for the final eggs and the winner.

For Marie to color eggs, Sara put food coloring in

rice in cup cake tins.

Marie had fun rolling the eggs in the colored rice

and making her own eggs.

Another fun way she got to color eggs,

was to have food coloring in whipped topping.

You can see she had lots of fun doing this activity.

Here are most of our eggs.

the clear winner!

Brad's response:

"Wow! I'm really not much of a bragger, but I'll give it a shot...

first time dying eggs and I beat an entire family of artists?! 

Better luck next year!"

He tried a technique with putting wax on

the egg and coloring it, then a different layer

and coloring again. 
Kind of a batik method.
Didn't come out like he hoped.

But it was a nice try.

I colored mine and then painted it.

We had so much fun doing this and having the 

facebook contest that we plan to make it a

yearly family activity.

Which egg would you have voted for?

Thanks for stopping in today.

Come again soon.

Until then:

have fun with a family activity!
