An Easter tradition

Our favorite tradition for Easter is dying eggs. Last year after Easter, I picked up several egg dying kits on clearance. Today we busted out three different kits and combined them to create Easter egg masterpieces.
Abby, Logan and Kippy worked together to design these fabulous eggs. Abby mixed the colored tablets to make very vibrant colors with some slightly different hues.
Each kid had varying levels of patience making many varieties of colors. We ran out of hardboiled eggs way before their creativity was used up.Dye, glitter, stickers, crayons, and shrink-wrap combined with laughter, a little whining and some spills equalled a great time and some beautiful eggs.

Here are each of their personal favorites... from left to right, Abby (pink & sparkly), Logan (orange & shrink-wrapped), Kippy (lavendar & stickered).
