This is likely the first time in my life that I haven't dyed eggs for the holiday. In these unusual circumstances, where buying eggs is limited at our store, it seems wasteful to use only to color, leave for the Easter bunny to hide, then toss before they start smelling bad.
Late 2011 I made these felted eggs, along with some collaged wood eggs for an article (Somerset Studio Jan/Feb 2012). I also made some wood burned eggs (HERE) which inspired an article I did on pyrography. (Woodburning article Somerset Studio May/June 2017). These collections come out every year, and remind me that Easter eggs don't have to be brightly colored and temporary. In fact, we don't even need eggs to celebrate Easter....because the real gift of the holy day is not something you set out on a table, but something you hold in your heart.
Wishing you a blessed day, whatever your faith.
