I went on a little hunt for non-traditional Easter egg decorating. Three hours of pinning later (I KNOW!), I ended up with a huge list, and probably a lot fewer followers on Pinterest.
Is it just me being easily distracted, or does anyone else lose hours of their day searching Pinterest? Crap, I’ve blown through half a bag of Cheetos and a huge bowl of Tillamook White Chocolate Raspberry Yum ice cream. (If you haven’t yet, you’ve GOT to try it – crack ice cream I tell ya! – I’m sorry for the tease for those of you who can’t get Tillamook dairy products in your area – nananananaaaaa na). I wonder if I get a free case of this stuff from Tillamook for the plug…
Oh wow, veered way off-subject there for a wee bit, I apologize.
So back to the eggs. I found all KINDS of alternatives to the standard dyed eggs and I couldn’t decide if I wanted to include everything I found, or just be neat and tidy and go with one category. The OCD in me won. Below are some of the prettiest and most creative eggs I found using yarn, twine, lace, fabric, etc. Click on the image to be taken to the instructions. Tomorrow I’ll post all the other cool ones I found. Enjoy!
