Blue/Brown Eggs, Easter/Christmas Eggs - Getting my craft on!!

[Mary Of Exeter]

Great idea with the buttons! Those are much easier to find locally than bead caps

Also Kansaseq, thanks

And you're welcome to use them too!

WOW!

All I've seen on this thread are beautiful

I found some stickers at wal mart today, I'm going tomorrow to look for decent rub ons at a craft store. I can't wait to try this out. Bead caps are an issue for me to find but I think I'll be able to work something else out that looks just as nice. keep those pictures coming, I love looking at them

I'm loving all the photos too!! Please keep posting. Also, please keep posting your "mail order/online" sources for rub ons, and other supplies. I can't get them where I am, without spending an all day trip shopping, to the nearest craft shops-- over 100 miles away!
I have, however, started blowing out eggs, learning the techniques. I'm very over eager- and pop a lot of them still!!

Dad gave me a HUGE syringe today! When I saw it, my jaw dropped. It beats the heck out of my 6cc syringe. This one is an ounce. The tip is a lot bigger, but luckily we had a long needle that's nice and thin, that fits great. Hopefully it won't take as much work to blow out eggs now

Oriental Trading has so much stuff. I could spend a lot of money on there

They have a lot of bead caps and stickers, but if I remember right, not a huge variety of rub-ons. Etsy.com has many people selling bead caps too.

I've been using a 20cc syringe and working mostly with duck eggs. So much easier! I"ve got it down to a science and really like working with the duck eggs.

Fowltemptress, I LOVE the buttons! What a great idea!

Every time I see new pics of eggs posted here I think oh, those are the best but you all just keep on getting better!! Great job and I love the idea of bells for end caps as well as buttons.
