Those supplies you saw yesterday? Many of them have been transformed into string Easter Eggs! Tha means that Connie out in California was correct with her guess! Banners were a popular here and on my Facebook page, but alas not a banner (though I do have one of those in the works).
Here are some more images for you...
Want to complete this project on your own?
- Assemble your supplies -- water ballons, Baker's Twine, liquid starch, gloves if you'd like, a bowl, and some cups for drying
- Blow up balloons and wrap with Baker's Twine as neatly as you can
- Roll balloons in liquid starch to thoroughly soak the twine
- Place balloons on small cups to dry for several hours...overnight is even better
- Deflate balloons and remove
- Place out on display and enjoy!
Be sure not to skimp on drying time...
Fortunately, I was able to re-shape the twine, however, definitely not the ideal!
This idea was inspired by a pin I found on Pinterest from thewoot.com.au -- they suggested placing little chocolates in the balloons before inflating. We tried this but our ballons just tore. A Pinterest fail? Not really...a fun result even without the chocolate!
How about a little Baker's Twine?
Wishing you a wonderful day! Thanks for stopping by and happy creating!
