Gorgeous Designer Easter Egg

Hi Everybody today is my feature day at The Twinery. I have made a project that we used to make for the farmers market.. We would make it out of yarn but I have made it with baker's twine!!!

I have used all bright pretty colors of The Twinery Twine Caribbean, Lilac, Pink Sorbet, Lemon drop, Pea pod, Maraschino, and Mandarin. A balloon, and corn starch mixture.

I covered the Twinery Twine with cornstarch and wrapped it around the balloon. Let the balloon dry for 24 hours. After it is dry poke a small hole at the top so the balloon deflates slowly.

I cut around the egg shape.. added a bit of lace to have a finished look.. Filled with goodies and topped off with a beautiful pink ribbon... Ta Da..

Finished product.... If you have any questions don't hesitate to e-mail me..
Thanks for stopping by today :)...Monique
