The first stoplight is over 100 miles from in one direction or 300 miles from me in the other so needless to say I go online. Ebay is a great place to look for them. I got 100 caps for 1.99 and that was even shipping to AK, also a huge lot of 50 sheets of mini rub ons for 2.44. I also liked http://www.ezrubontransfers.com the more you order the bigger discount.

They peal easy off the paper and stick like a dream on the eggs. I bought the pain Mod Podge and the spray to see what worked for me. I found the spray will take the gold coloring off some of the stickers (the maple leaves) so I painted the other like it.
Some rub ons I bought or should I say most!!! Im having a night mare of a time, or if they are to big. Some I have rubbed to death and its still attached to the paper.. I havent broke and egg yet doing the rub ons tho

This week was my very 1st visit to a craft store..>EVER
I was in Michaels for 2 hours walking round, mulling things over, trying to find transfers, found the gold and silver stickers NOWHERE NEAR all the other sticker. Took me for ever to find the stuff on my list. I found very little Christmas rub ons and when I asked someone who worked in there where I would find rub ons she said where you found them in your hand. When I told her they were hung on the end of an isle on a little hangy thing ...she shrugged and said oh well, that must be all the rub ons we have. When I found what I was looking for...an hour later I could of quite happily side swiped her with the things

. So 2 hours in Michaels, 1 hour in AC someones and 2 hours in hobby lobby...where everything was HALF PRICE...go figure.​
 
Finally I've managed to do some to completion. The hot glue really doesn't stick that well to the mod podged egg (or for that matter to the metal bells) but that makes for easy removal when I screw up (no, I never do that haha):

I have tried the tattoos and really liked them. I also liked that there are so many different kinds more than you can find in rub-ons. Just need patience cuz I tried to take the paper off too early a few times and got wrinkles in them. Also, don't do like I did one time, I tried and tried to get one to stick to an egg and after I got all frustrated and ruined the tattoo I then realized I had never taken the clear plastic off the side that was the side to stick to the egg.
