Anyone have any easy, adult Easter craft ideas? By adult, I mean not exclusively for toddlers. Something more for an adult to do, but not too time consuming. Maybe like teen crafts? Especially looking for decoration ideas. TIA

I have a collection of "blown" eggs which were dyed in beautiful colors. Don't remember which dye process I used, tho I know it wasn't the ordinary one. Put in a glass or silver bowl and they are very pretty.

I'm glad you found something,maybe it helps.I use to make baskets & eggs using...string or light weight yarn wrapped around laytex balloons,then modge glue or cheap glue painted over this.When dry,poke balloon and remove from small area on bottom.It's like a shell.I would cut out handles or oval piece.Add lace on edges(or not)add Easter grass and plastic eggs.I wish I had a pic but I dont.

I am addicted to some of the craft bogs.LOL
