Easter

I decided that this year I wanted to do something amazing with Easter eggs and try drawing on them with wax like the beautiful Russian and Polish eggs that I keep seeing on the internet (...Pinterest).  So I lit a candle and got some eggs and then discovered that without proper tools, drawing on eggs with wax is really hard!  I ended up using a knife and made some simple designs on three eggs.  They were far less beautiful and amazing than I had pictured, but until I figure out where to get wax egg drawing tools they were the best I could manage! 






Then I dyed them along with all the regular, not wax decorated eggs and here is how they turned out:


I think they are not bad for a first attempt and I definitely learned a thing or two.  Next year I plan to be much better prepared!  Here are the rest of our eggs:



I hope you all had a Happy Easter and enjoyed dying eggs of your own!
