Description Hey! I made these today and I thought I'd enter in 's "Get Sprung Egg Design Contest". Which I forgot was due today, so. I had to quickly photograph these and get them up! So yez! The light was poor since it's late... tomorrow I will get some good macros of them done!

Tips for decorating eggs!
- Although they usually DON'T work the way the box says they will, I like to buy kits. they give you egg holders and dippers and dye and stuff.
- The best one I have is a tye-dye kit which I've reused for YEARS! But you can do the tye-dye without the kit by getting a little thin cloth (cotton?) and you wrap it around the egg, making sure you get it all scrunched in the process. then you get an eye dropper and squeeze dye onto the egg in random places. take the cloth off and you have a tye-dye egg! 8D
- if you've got mugs of dye, you can wrap elastics around your eggs and then dip them in the dye. the parts with elastics stay dry and you get thick funky lines!
- wax crayons resist dye. So you can draw things (or scribble, like I did!) and then dye them! I did some dyed first, scribbled, dyed again in another colour, and repeat till whenever.
- have fun with amazingbeaytiful eggs!
