What do do with all those egg shells...


Just wanted to quickly post this. I was sitting here nursing Gracie so I was just reading some blogs and I found this post. Such a GREAT idea!!! We colored 2 dozen eggs last night. I plan on making deviled eggs for Easter Sunday lunch and now I have a use for all those eggs shells! The kids will have a blast doing that on Monday. I will post pictures later on when they do them.
Edit: It is now Thursday. Here is a picture of them creating their egg shell mosaics! Warning...there is LOTS of glue involved. But they did enjoy it. We didn't get to it on Monday...but we did on Tuesday. I was worried that the eggshells might be kinda stinky but nope, they seemed just fine to wait a few days to use them. Over all a great after Easter project!

We just did them yesterday. They didn't turn out as nice as I hoped. but the kids had fun. I'll post pictures later on. They just poured on TONS of glue and slapped on pieces of shell..but it was entertaining for them at least!
