Natural Eggs coloured by using Crepe Paper

1. Wrap the egg in one or two layers of crepe paper.

2. Place the wrapped egg onto a piece of tulle and gather this around the egg. Hold it in place with a rubber band or a piece of string.

3. Moisten the tulle bag (containing the egg) with water and leave to dry.

4. Remove the tulle and the crepe paper when dry.

5. Decorate a piece of flax twine with a bead and attach it to the hole in the egg, securing it with a glue gun.

NB Use Fixative if you want to fix the colours. The process is not recommend for children to carry out and should take place in a well ventilated room or outside.
