easter egg family

what do you use?
food coloring? modge podge? paint? dip? newspaper? lace? stickers? sharpies? crepe paper? vinyl? tea? veggies?
crepe paper? candy? toothpaste?
(just kidding about the toothpaste-seeing if you were paying attention)

anywho, my goodness the list could go on!
let's try something different with eggs today.

first, raid the easter egg section at target & hobby lobby.
then grab a lovely piece of wood (at hobby lobby or your local craft store).
next grab your acrylic paint.
get your eggs & liners together while the paint dries.
now grab your hot glue gun.
and your glue stick.
we'll use half an egg as necessary.
did you know there was even such a thing as girl eggs? 
we got boy eggs here too. 
lookie!
let's fix their clothes now.
we'll add jewelry too.
now head over to world market and get the bunnies
(hopefully you have one near you, as one box of bunnies is $4.99.)
check 'em out.
that's me and my family.
all done.
oh, one last thing before i forget.
ok. now we're all done.
so if anyone calls any of us "eggheads", 
i'll take that as a compliment.
