Inspired by, but not trying to copy, Pysanky Eggs (aren't they amazing?!), I thought I'd have a play with eggs this morning. I tried to use masking fluid, painting it on, and do a dye resist, but that didn't work AT ALL. So I'm using water colours and bleed proof white paint instead. I dyed some of the eggs first.
Oh, and they are only boiled, not blown, but that's ok. I may varnish them to make them last a little longer... Lots of fun and nice change from crocheting - I'm done done DONE with the blanket and it was picked up this morning. PHEW!
OMG they're gorgeous. I want some! Can you come over and show me how to do them?! Mind you I am not a natural artist like you so mine wouldn't look so nice.
