Easter Egg Party

Blown eggs
small paintbrushes
watercolor paints
small jars of water
paper napkins
sharp pencils
3 or 4 jars of fresh clear nailpolish

To blow out the eggs prick a deep hole in each end of the egg with a needle.
Put your mouth over one of the holes and blow had until the egg comes out--it gets easier as the egg starts coming.
This should be done before the party starts.
Distribute brushes, pencils, etc. around the table--use the napkins to blot the brushes.
The designs can be drawn (and erased) in pencil.
Watercolors dry quickly. When completely dry, cover the entire egg in clear nail polish.
If your guests sign their eggs, you can use them as place cards
for Easter Dinner.

Great ideas!!!! I can still remember in public school my younger brother was to take some eggs to school for a craft...my mother assumed that they were to be hard boiled and well....they weren't and here my poor brother was blowing with all his might to get the insides of the egg out and here it was hard boiled!!! We still laugh about that every Easter!!!
