Little Maid Decorated Eggs

Egg Time

If you have been filling your nest with eggs it should be full by now because it’s Easter Sunday tomorrow and the children will be expecting their eggs.

Boiled Eggs

If you haven’t made the chocolate ones and you haven’t made the needle felted ones, you still have time to boil an egg.

I chose two double yolk organic eggs from a local farmer’s market and boiled them for 7 minuets, then plunged them into cold water so that a black line wouldn’t develop inside, and left them over night.

Two Little Maids

Braided brown wool tied with red shiny parcel tie provided their hair and acrylic paint their faces. I hope that the children won’t mind breaking them open to provide a healthy lunch!

      Mrs Moon
      sitting up in the sky
      little old lady
      rock-a-bye
      with a ball of fading light
      and silvery needles
      knitting the night
