Easter craft idea using blown eggs
Blowing eggs is not hard it’s just time consuming, so it’s a perfect activity to do with the kids that just might keep them quiet for a minute. If you want to go a step further and actually make an egg diorama. Then you might have to listen to the kids jabber away, don’t worry it will be happy jabber. This is such a fun idea for hanging blown eggs on a branch kinda like a spring Christmas tree (I said kinda)
So let’s get started you will need just a few supplies
- eggs the larger the better extra large eggs work best
- a long needle
- tiny scissors the kind you use to cut fingernails and eyebrows
- modpodge i like the matt look for this project but i didn’t have any
- cotton string , twine, or bakers twine, for tying on branches
- branches fresh or faux I ordered cherry blossoms but they haven’t arrived yet (Boo for Covid19!!)
First Step
Poke a hole right in the belly of the raw egg with your long needle.
Step Two
Start by carefully peeling pieces of the egg away from the whole go slow you want little pieces not huge chucks. 
Step Three
When you have the whole as big as you want it pop the yolk with the needle, if it isn’t broken yet and dump into a jar for making scrambled eggs for dinner. 
Step Four
Use the scissors to clean up the ragged edges. This is such a fun part I loved making it look pretty like one of those old fashioned sugar eggs we use to make as a child.
Step Five
Wash out the inside of the blown egg with hot water and let dry poke a small hole in the top for the string and then ModPodge the egg so it will be stronger
Step Six
String the cotton twine through the top of the egg and fill with a nest. I used White Festooning, dry moss, pink eyelash yarn , and paper party shread.
Just use what you have and drop a tiny egg in the center of each nest inside the blown eggs. I didn’t glue anything in just hung them up on my branches. I love how they look and kina sad I only made 5 of them.
