Talk about PINSPIRATION… I think this idea is just wonderful!  How gorgeous are these…you can use them as little gifts for everyone…you could add a name on a tiny flag and use them for place cards…the list goes on…and you get to eat them too! You can also use the tip of the shell and crush it fine and add it to your soil.
A monochromatic color palette can unleash such beauty…have a visit here for much inspiration and beauty.
Natural dye is beautiful.
Decoupage can create whatever your imagination is thinking!

These are so much fun and if you hop on over to BHG there are a ton more ideas that are free of any dye…easy clean up and amazing!

The Kids will love these for sure!  Just put a buffet of ribbon…rhinestones and trimmings …some glue…scissors and it will equal HOURS OF FUN!
Simplicity at it’s finest…a pretty egg cup…an egg shell plus some fresh picked blooms…just doesn’t get any easier and more beautiful than this.
Well I am sure you knew that Martha had to get into this act! Glittered eggs…easy…gorgeous…”it’s a good thing” : )
So you don’t have a goose that lays golden eggs you say?  Well fee fi fo fom…you can just make one or two or a dozen of dum.

I was just thinking the other day that I haven’t had a soft boiled egg probably since my Mom made me one in my favorite egg cup when I was little…so when I saw this…I had to share it with you…I have see cozies for teapots…casserole dishes…even for your blender and toaster…but never your egg!
How cute are these
