I just got my shipment from Craftsetc.com and now I have way more rub ons than I need but still want to go back to hoppy lobby later today!

I went to my sisters last night and blew 3 dozen of her eggs. My thumb hurts from pumping the bellows on my blas-fix blower. Lots faster than a syringe though.

I must've cracked 12 eggs this week making dinners... it wasn't until I cracked the VERY LAST ONE last night that I realized I should've blown them out & used them...

I am just itching to get to a scrapbook store!! I love those things from K and company!!!

Oh!OH! OOOH!!! You know what would work also, are stencils and spray on glue, then sprinkle glitter on those. Also airbrushing if anyone does that

ok nothing absolutley nothing in my area for supplies so I got creative went to the local alco and low and behold a whole package of wet and apply temporary tattos was a whole 1.29. I got em went home and tried them well the smaller ones are AWESOME!!!! the bigger ones too hard to keep them from tearing while applying....then my mind went whirling because I am a late christmas doer and I found stencil letters for your mailbox itty bitty ones in the hardware section!!! They are prefect worked great!!! so now I am working on the hand painted ones that take me forever....this is my first year and my first attempte so I will have to post some for contstructive criticism later on!!!! Continue on ideas!!!!!!

I so, so, SO agree with you. I have counted up all my cost verses my profits and I am WAY under! It has been so fun though.
My whole kitchen table is taken up with blown eggs painted and unpainted, rub ons, eggs with rub ons, beads and you get the picture...

HELP!!!!!!!

So for all you blowing out all those eggs. How are you using these eggs so that you don't throw away the egg. I am guessing ya all are baking pound cake for Christmas presents.
