A BIG
Egg Materials:
Balloon
Newspaper
Glue
Water
Bowl
Safety Pin
Paints of your choice
Directions:
Cover your work area with newspaper.
In the bowl you will need to mix glue and some water to make a thin
sticky liquid. (If you have liquid starch this works well too.)
Tear newspaper into strips and set aside.
Blow up your balloon so that it is egg shaped. Once your egg,
err...balloon is securely tied you will need to dip single slips of
newspaper into the glue/water mixture and then place all around your
egg. Cover it completely with the dipped newspaper strips.
Once you have done this you wait until your egg balloon has dried.
After it has dried you can paint your egg to look like an Easter Egg.
When the Easter Egg paint has dried, take the safety pin and pop the
balloon inside. You now have a BIG EGG, which can be used for display or
as a piñata. |
