Decorated Eggs (Milner Craft Series)

From simple, brightly-dyed ovals to Russian icon eggs that rival Faberge's creations, you'll find dozens of ways to transform the humble egg into something unforgettable. Some projects-using finger paints and cutouts-are easy enough for youngsters. Others use dyes, glitter, beads, pressed flowers, icing, and batik. The most complex, created by artists who specialize in this traditional craft, feature quilling, folk art, and etching, all clearly explained and illustrated. 104 pages, 23 color illus., 70 b/w illus., 7 1/4 x 10 1/4.
