Eggshell Collage Craft



This is a really colorful craft idea for a collage using dyed eggshells. It's also a  good way to recycle all those eggs. It'd be a good idea to make the dyed eggshells far in advance and keep a stock of them on hand for various crafts.

Materials:

  • egg shells
  • Easter egg dyes or food coloring
  • vinegar or lemon juice
  • cups
  • paper
  • glue

Directions:

Colored Eggshells

  1. Rinse and allow egg shells to dry after cooking. Be sure to remove the inner membrane.
  2. Put into a ziplock bag and break into small pieces. Don't pulverize them.
  3. Place water and food coloring into small cups. Pour in the eggshells. Adding a little vinegar or lemon juice will create a stronger color. Remove and allow to dry. Separate your various colors.

Collage Craft

  1. Draw a design on paper with glue.
  2. Cover with eggshells and pour off the excess.

or..

Draw a design with crayons and put glue on the inside decorate.

  2. I saw the picture of the egg shell flower, I think it was your site. Can you tell me who I might ask for permission to use it in my Ted Talk? It is very familiar to something I did in grade school. Just a fun little slide and I want to credit.

  5. Naast knutselprojecten vinden kinderen het ook geweldig om te kleuren. Een dino kleurplaat geeft ze de kans om hun favoriete dinosaurussen zelf tot leven te brengen met kleur, wat zowel leuk als leerzaam is.

  6. Além de colagens e artesanato simples, outra atividade criativa para crianças é colorir. Os desenhos da patrulha canina para colorir são perfeitos para estimular a imaginação e manter os pequenos entretidos de forma educativa.
