Dragon Eggs

You've seen a glimpse of one of my other hobbies before (multiple times if you follow me on Instagram). Dragon eggs!

I've made a lot of them, but today I just wanted to show off a few. This is the first one I ever made. I used Kleancolor Chunky Holo Black for the color shifting glitter, and a holo silver glitter on top of that.

I've even branched out and gotten more crafty with the eggs! I did some two-tone and added crests to them to represent the Harry Potter houses, plus placed gold tacks on a ball shape and made wings for a golden snitch.

I started adding black and yellow stripes to another egg, and it was looking very bee-like, so I turned it into the cutest bumblebee!

They're a lot of fun to make, I love them! Eventually I'll have to do a big post with all the ones I've made. There's probably 50 of them, so it'll take me a while! I do want to get them all photographed, though.

wow the bumblebee is so original!
I've been on an egg roll the last few days. Been finishing about two per day. Can't wait for my Joann Fabrics package to arrive. I only have one foam egg left!!!!!

Would you want some round ornaments? I have two foam ones (like in this pic- https://twitter.com/craftynail/status/54963496296.... But I don't want to use them. I only like eggs for some reason. I will send them right out if you want them :)

Sure, if you're not going to use them! I've made a couple of ornaments and use the balls as toppers for the trees I make. I've been playing with trying to make a snowman too!
