'tis the season...

...
gather up the egg-dying supplies!
i had a wonderful weekend using simple crafting materials 
for three simple diy easter centrepieces! 


...of course the dye is a must, white eggs work best,
but brown can work some interesting surprises too!
start dying them eggs!


buy... or make egg-lining-confetti! 
these is shredded paper strips, soaked in the leftover
egg-dye for about 15 minutes...


set out to dry on paper towel-lined trays...
look at the surprising results! vibrant!


centerpeice 01: line in a basket/bowl/pot for the finished eggs!
i applied masking tape cutouts to the green & pink eggs,
so while they soaked in dye, an interesting imprint was left in the shells!

speckled yellow egg effect?  - simply splatter with 
blue dye using an old toothbrush!


second centerpiece: 


layer paper confetti and eggs...


too the top of a simple, long, glass jar or vase...


and...


enjoy the view!

third centrepiece is a nice bunch of
pussy willow branches gathered last weekend!
(no water or they will bloom out!)

questions? comments? let me know!
happy pre-easter!
