So I am Horrible at this blog thing. But I think its because my computer is so slow it takes forever. Well Yesterday I made these eggs
Cute Right! Well That's what a lot of people thought. I had a bunch of people ask how I made them so I thought I would make a quick tutorial about it so that why I don't have to re-explain it a bunch. First of all I want to give credit To the lady I got the idea from. She blogs over at craftberrybush. This is the link to the page where my idea came from here. She used embroidery floss and did not give a tutorial on how she made them. Well months after I saw this I was thinking about it and decided I wanted to make them while I was at Walmart I was getting some supplies I thought she used Yarn so that is what I got but of course she did not use it but oh well it worked out great anyway. I already had all the other supplies.
What you need
Your yarn/embroidery floss or whatever you decide to use. This peaches and cream that I found was next to all the other yarn and was $1.77
Regular Elmer's school glue
Your eggs- I used plastic eggs Styrofoam and paper mache eggs so just use whatever is cheapest
Paintbrush
Scissors
small bowl to put your glue in.
Put your glue in your bowl
Using your paintbrush put a good amount of glue on the end of your egg. I started at the bottom (the bigger end) put you can start wherever
Place the yarn in the glue for the first round or two you will have to hold it down but then it gets easier for a while.
Just follow the yarn around the egg
Making sure the yarn is touching the previous row. It get a little harder when you get to the top but that just meant I pushed it down as I was going
Keep going almost done
I put a extra dab of glue right before I did the last little bit
Push down the top
Put a large amount of glue over the top and bottom
Then put glue around the whole egg and let it dry. I just let mine dry overnight. then set them out to decorate your house!!
See they were so easy. The first one took about 20 min but then the rest took about 10. I hope you enjoy them!
