That’s an original title, huh? Why did I get started on eggs and nests? Now I can’t stop. This is what I started with. The cute little shadow box was at Dollar Tree along with the moss and eggs.
To paint the eggs, I stuck a toothpick in the bottom of the eggs and then held onto the toothpick while I painted. I stuck the toothpick in the box to let them dry. I love this blue (Deco Art Spa Blue).
I used the same blue to speckle the brown eggs. And I used a brown to speckle the blue eggs. Looks like I speckled the deck a little too. That’s okay, it needs to be stained again.
I made little nests out of the Spanish moss. Wow, that stuff makes a mess!
Nine little nests, ready for eggs.
Insert little eggs and admire how cute it turned out.
Amanda and Ammon want to play tic-tac-toe with it. I told them I’d make them a game, if they’d leave the eggs alone. It does look like a tic-tac-toe game. I guess brown won.
Isn’t it so cute!
I love the brown and blue eggs together. I think that’s it with eggs for a while. Umm, except for the ones we’re coloring tomorrow.
