Easter

Happy Easter! To celebrate, my friend Heather invited some of us girls over on Thursday night for an egg decorating evening. Her mom is in town, and showed us how to decorate eggs Polish-style using wax and dye. It was really fun!


The concept is pretty simple - you just apply wax to the eggs where you don't want the color to take and then dip the egg in dye. You can repeat this process to get lots of colors. It is exactly like batik only on an egg. The only problem is that it takes a really long time, so we all decorated one egg each!


Here is a sampling of our results....
