March 31, 1-3 Here comes Peter Cottontail. and he's left behind a home decor item -a BEADED EASTER EGG made with seed beads. Another tool to make beading easier is a bead spinner. We'll use seed beads and the spinner to make long ropes of tiny beads which will be wrapped and secured around a Styrofoam egg form to create an egg that doesn't require emptying a real shell, no water required , won't go bad, and can match any home decor style and colour.
