Blue/Brown Eggs, Easter/Christmas Eggs - Getting my craft on!!
When I mount my eggs on the kabob sticks I use a pinch of that removable wall putty (Scotch makes it) to hold them on. I usually have a smaller hole on the small end of the egg, so the egg won't fall all the way down the stick, but if it does, I'll put a bit of putty on the bottom of the egg to... -
North to Alaska!
Quote: I would ask 10 or 15 a piece for them. Haven't we had a fabulously beautiful fall! I let the chickies out into the garden this morning and they're having a good time scratching around. Too soon it'll be covered in snow...but for now the sun is shining down on brown piles of leaves...- EHaus

I think I saw a can of Krylon that was "low fume" at Joanne's. I just bought the regular though. -

Quote: I have ZERO talent in the arts department. But I can rub with a plastic stick like anyone's business! You should just TRY these crafts and see for yourself how easy it is. Want to donate a blue layer to me and I'll donate some eggs ?? -

Quote: Your eggs are really pretty! Are you selling to friends, craft shows...? I am making some and am wondering how I can sell them. Yay! Good for you that you're doing it! I'm doing my first craft show on Oct 1st. I'm working on my eggs here and there and starting to feel a little... -

Blue/Brown Eggs, Easter/Christmas Eggs - Getting my craft on!!
Quote: I think it depends on your area and demand, but people generally ask between $5 and $7, on average. I had someone tell me once that when it comes to selling something you've MADE it doesn't do you any good to be modest. People will assign the value to your craft that you will. So if... -

Quote: Yes!!! I swear by it. Plus, I can't imagine blowing them out "manually". I loved the idea of using the air compresser! That is hilarious and might be a good way to get DH to help. You know...men and their tools. The air compressor is one I keep in my car for emergencies, lol... -

That sounds good. Is there a specific brand you use or prefer over others? I was told that brushing on bar lacquer would make the eggs almost indestructible, but it's like a two part epoxy and very messy. -

A little history... Last year, around October, I stumbled across this thread and started reading. I got up into the 70's pages and stopped. I made some pretty eggs to send out as Christmas presents, and I think people liked them Anyway, I 'm going at it again and might have to read up where... -
Blue/Brown Eggs, Easter/Christmas Eggs - Getting my craft on!!
I've found that a portable air compressor set at the lowest setting works for me. I use a thumbtack to chip a hole on either end...a small one at the top and a larger one on the bottom. After carefully scrambling with a metal skewer, I insert the needle used for blowing basketballs and such... -
