Easter is coming - pics

Growing up in my house was far from normal, but Mom did encourage creativity. Every Easter we'd make Easter eggs and Mom would enter some of them in local egg decorating contests. Some of these were made by us kids, some by my mom and most are about 30+ years old.
The last 4 are Ukrainian pysanky- made by me. They are faded from sunlight, but you'll get the idea.
Thought I'd share and I hope you like them.

Jen - you kids were really creative.
I especially liked the Pysanky ones. I have 2 Pysanky eggs in my china cabinet that came from Ukraine about 40 years ago. Of course, they're wooden but so beautifully decorated.
Thanks for sharing.
Hugs

Jen, thanks for sharing those pictures. Wow! It was great to get to admire those eggs - and take a little walk down the memory lane. I used to paint Easter eggs as well, but nothing as creative and talented. And none of those eggs were photographed; we just admired the eggs for a while before we broke the painted shields and ate them.

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

Hey Jenn
They are really great, I love the Little black one with the neck rings ( if I am allowed to say that)
Its really great that you still have things like this from being a kid, I do not think we have anything from my childhood
