Dry Felted Easter Eggs: Stories from the "Easter Tree"





The Easter Tree- it is on our kitchen table- year after year- we start with hearts for valentines day and then Easter eggs-and then flowers and bees for the solstice.  This year we added dry felted wool eggs- it was interesting and I am trying to decide if I like it better than wet felted eggs.  You get more freedom and predictability of the design. My seven year old made the black egg with the dragon- he did a pretty good job-although this is the first time he used the felting needle and I had planned to start him at around 9 or 10 on it, however- it becomes difficult when he sees the older children doing what he wants to do!  Next up- I will post our wet felting easter egg video. Fun for all : )

  1. Love it! Great idea with the tree and the seasons :D I like needle felting better than wet, too (something about getting my hands wet - sensory thing), but I'm trying - lol! Happy Palm Sunday Momma!
