I am a serious crafter ............

Not!!!! I have a long list of LO's and cards I wamt to make.
I have a long list of fab challenges from various blogs and forums.
And instead I am about to tackle 8 of these disgusting eggs.
I HATE Styrofoam, I hate eggs, I hate cheap and tacky embellishments
But yes, this is my latest project for work to turn these 8 nasty eggs into something stunning to encourage people to buy them - I think we only have about 850 of them to sell!

I will report back later this afternoon with some very tacky eggs!

Love Bex (The serious crafter!)

Hazel said...

Oh gosh - I wouldn't have a clue what to do with it! I'll return later to see what great ideas you've come up with - happy selling - and, as Sarah says, Easter is coming ... so eggs must sell.

Ooooh 'eck - rather you than me, chicken! Don't forget to let us know when you post the 'after' pics, will you? I somehow doubt it's going to have feathers and a beak...

PMSL!

I saw some these on TV the other day covered in sequins, I think they were supposed to be animals.... lol!

Good luck - mind you a decent Moderator would have done them for you...

Ooooo I did some of these with the kids last year for Easter. First of all we painted them then I made some slits down the sides and one on the head and cut out of funky foam some wings and the head bit. And then stuck them into the slits. Then we put googly eyes and a beak on the front for a face. You can then stick them onto some feet made from funky foam. Oh how I wish I took some photo's of them. Good luck, I can't wait to see what you come up with.

Janice said...

I think you should fry a couple of them and eat them for breakfast. Then you would have two less to decorate. Barring that, Here's a couple of suggestions, a Dr. Evil egg, Howie Mandel egg, (nevermind, you probably don't know who he is.) Humpty Dumpty egg. Sinead O'Connor egg. I'm sure you'll spin some magic and it will all be fine. As you were.

I reckon you should paint the crack of af a hairy man's arse on one. Or is that a hairy arse of a man? Or maybe, a hairy arse of an arsey man? Oh, you figure it out.
