altSpring is just around the corner and Easter decorating has begun!  For those of us that are not huge fans of the "pastels" but yet love this time of the year....create your own colors - I have spray painted real eggs with Rust-Oleum's Painter's Touch in Gloss Berry Pink, Sun Yellow and Grape!  I poked holes in each end of the egg, blew out the yolks & whites (which I then used in my cupcake recipe) allowed them to drip dry for one day in the egg carton.  Then with two light coats, I spray painted the eggs.  Everyone does touch them and ask "are those real?"  The spray paint does give each each such a glossy finish, but yet allows the texture of the egg to show.  I did a few of these last year and the spray paint acted as a preservative and the egg stayed nice and hard and the colors did not fade.  The hardest part of this project is blowing out the eggs - easy part...Spray Painting and adding vibrant great colors to your Easter decorations!

Angie's philosophy is simple: take on projects that are affordable and easily achievable. Look for inspiration in magazines and make the projects your own. Hers are real projects for real people and they don't require you to have a background in art. Test
