  1. Wow! I can’t wait for next Easter to try out even more ideas for natural egg dying!

  2. Jenn,
    Once again you outdid yourself and every other blog site on the net!
    The Chinese tea eggs remind of their pottery glazes ‘cracked’. It would be a great deviled egg item for our next pottery meeting. The Polish eggs were awesome! We have some people in our group who do that, but have since begun putting it on pots they’ve thrown on the pottery wheel. It’s beautiful!

  3. Wow! Those are really beautiful. I might just have to try some of those next year. I guess I better start saving my egg shells. :)

  4. Love these collections! Awesomeness! Thanks, sharing!
