Tuesday Tutorial - Easter Eggs

Today, I'd like to share some really pretty easter egg tutorials.

The first one is from craftsncoffee.com. They're decoupaged with tissue paper and embellished with lace, ribbon and string.



Next, I found these gorgeous eggs made with twine and lace... so pretty. Find the instructions at www.mydesertcottage.com


Last, but not least I ran across the tutorial for these gorgeous prim eggs. The complete tutorial can be found at www.homespunhugsandcalicokisses.com

I'm inspired to decorate some eggs... how about you?

Thanks for joining us!
