Easter Craft Kid Project
Materials Needed:
• Hard boiled eggs
• Acrylic craft paints in the colours of your choice
• Household sponge
• Paper towel
• Small bowl of water
• Egg holder or empty egg carton
Method:
Soak a household sponge in water, then ring it out completely.
Cut the sponge into several different pieces, enough so that you
have one for each colour. Using a paper plate as a palette,
squeeze out small amounts of several different colours of paint.
Place an empty egg carton upside down so that you can rest
your eggs on it to dry once painted. Hold an egg in your
fingers, and with your other hand, dab a sponge into desired
paint colour. Dab the sponge onto a piece of paper towel. The
object is to remove the excess paint, but not completely dry it
out. Now dab the sponge directly onto your egg, using any
type of random pattern you
like. Paint as much of the egg as you can and place it down to
dry.
Repeat steps four to six for each egg, using different colours.
For a coloured background with white sponge marks, simply
paint the egg a solid colour with a paint brush or with one of
your sponges. When dry, sponge on a pattern with white paint.
When one side has dried, complete the other side and allow
that to dry as well. Place eggs into an egg holder, or fill a bowl
with Easter grass and arrange the eggs atop the grass.
