a colorful easter activity

my 2012 Easter eggs
first batch, will there be another?

My sister and I spent a portion of last Friday afternoon coloring Easter eggs.  I like coloring brown eggs.  She enjoys white.  I bought a basic dye kit and added the fizzy tablets to six cups of a muffin tin - thank you Pinterest for that brilliant idea.  The colors came out great.  She went with a sponge paint kit, so her eggs had some depth and color variation on them.  I am very happy with our eggs, and think we did a great job.  Yay us!

We have another friend who colored eggs with her boyfriend last week (this is their official shout out!).  The actual eggs were just dyed colors, but their kit came with pirate and alien outfits, as well as a pirate ship and a space ship to display them on.  Can you say amazing?  I sure did.

I really enjoy coloring eggs.  Maybe I should do another dozen this weekend.
