craftyhunnypie Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Here as promised are the eggs I made with my W.I last night. I showed them how to do quilling & then we put the shapes onto painted poly eggs. I hope you like them. Mine are the 2 on the left.

craftyhunnypie Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 P.S I had to use emulsion paint to paint the eggs. It was a bargain pot I picked up from C.R.A.F.T in Aberystwyth (recycling shop). It's Laura Ashley Delphinium Blue & Chalk Pink. Both were only 49p a pot!!! Oh & the eggs were 99p for a pack of 12 from the Works. Double Wowser! I used a bow maker to make my bows & tiny pins to pin on the ribbon. The quilled shapes are just glued on with PVA.

TheGirlsMum Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Fantastic... and now I've learnt about bow makers, thanks for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted March 7, 2013 Author Share Posted March 7, 2013 You can make your own bow maker with a few nails in a piece of wood. Mine is a plastic bought one, but there really is nothing to it. It's just plastic with prongs! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
