Easter 'Tie Dyed' Eggs

The other day, I was looking over at Today's Creative Blog and found a post for Easter Eggs and a way cool way to color them over at Our Best Bites! Take a look at the site for a tutorial on how to make these amazing creations!!! But I thought that I would post my pictures here of the end results.

Here are the ties.....

And here they are all bound up in the ties....don't they look cute!!!



And here are the way cool results!!



Now, one thing that I did, and not sure that I will do again, was boil them all together. My water in the end was a purple color and I think that it did bleed into some of the other eggs, so they did not turn out as brilliant. But I will definitely do this again next year, I will just buy the hubby some new ties!!!

I have been busy!


Okay, I have not posted my stuff in awhile, but I have been busy!! :)

This is an altered item that I did for a swap in a myspace group. I bought this small dresser at Micheal's and painted it red. I then taped off the edges and painted on the cloth draper. The tree's, santa, and the snowman are cut from paper and glued on the front drawers.

I love the outcome and almost kept it and made her something different, but I can always make another one. :) So this one is in the mail, and a newly bought one is ready to start!!
