String Easter Eggs



Another awesome project I saw online and wanted to try. I how ever didn't wait long enough for some and the other ones deflated a little causing a little crinkle on one side.

For this project you need
ELMER'S GLUE
EMBROIDERY THREAD IN VARIED COLORS
BALLOONS
AND PLASTIC PLATES

Blow the balloons up to look like eggs, so barely inflated. Next dip colored thread in Elmer's glue and wipe off extra. Pull thread over balloon every which way and set on paper plate. Hanging up to dry would be even better. Let dry AT LEAST overnight.
Pop balloon and remove and tada! Thread Easter Eggs.
I might make the kids the solar system this way :)

  2. This is a very cute idea! I'm going to give it a go with my little home-preschool kids.
