Craft of the month

Craft of the month

Save all the shells you peel off your Easter eggs! This is a great way to use up your eggshells after the holiday.

Break the colored egg shells into small enough pieces so that they are fairly flat.

Draw a design on a piece of posterboard.

Working in small sections, use a cotton swab or an old paint brush to liberally spread glue onto your design.

Stick the egg shell pieces, colored side up, onto the glue.

Continuing gluing until your design is completely filled in with egg shells.

Set your mosaic aside to dry completely.

If you use a dark colored posterboard, it really sets off the color of the eggshells. If you are using white eggshells you can paint them with watercolors to give them color.
