I Could Not Resist...

It must be the anticipation as you unwrap the fabric outside, then the tie fabric and prepare to be awed by the jewel of the egg inside. I couldn't resist dying more of them. It also helped that when the almost-three-year-old starts acting up, one of the only mollifiers I know is engagement...If I can engage her in a book, a project, drawing, etc. she will immediately change back into my sweet angelic girl. Anyhow, I think these new ones came out even better. I used more vinegar in the water and boiled them for longer...do you like these better, too?

Unbelievable! I've never seen such gorgeous eggs! Seriously, you need to teach a class at the local community college :) I can't figure out how you get the fabric to wrap around the end so smoothly...

Gorgeous! I have get to get to a goodwill or something and find some old silk!
I think the pastel shades from the first set would look amazing with a light spray of glitter on some of them.
