Family Fun Mag's- Easter Egg Paper Diorama~

Family Fun Magazine April 2009 Edition Egg Diorama

I saw this cute craft project in my Family Fun mag and knew

the kids and I had to try it out as an Easter week project.

(We made these April 7 & 8, the week of Easter!)

The supplies were easy enough, most things that you

keep around the house~

You basically need: balloons, scissors, tissue paper,

white paper, flour and water to make glue & bowls

You cover the whole balloon in just one layer of tissue first,
after that cover the tissue layer with two white paper layers...

This is Hayden covering his white paper layers...

Then finally you cover the white paper layers with the final

tissue paper layer which you can design to make pretty...

Give it 24 hours to competely dry and become hard like an egg

Cut out and opening and pop your balloon inside

Pull out your balloon

Stuff your egg with whatever you heart desires

We choose Easter grass and plastic eggs

Tie a ribbon to the top for decoration

Lastly, glue crinkled up tissue paper around egg opening

for more decoration and pizazz

Display on table, shelf or could hang up as well

You could also fill the eggs up goodies and give them as Easter gifts

They are a 2 day project but soo cute when your completely finished!

We will have to make some more next year and give them as gifts~

Happy Easter!
