Quick Pic: Dragon Egg
"Dragon Egg" by HankyPysanky
Eggs available for purchase from Etsy. US$98
"This gorgeous gold and cream Dragon Egg is fashioned from a real rhea egg. The scales are the natural rich creamy sheen of rhea egg shells while the area between the scales are etched with vinegar then lined with gold leaf to give real dimensionality and richness to the egg. You can spend hours running your fingers over these 3 dimensional scales and gazing into the variation of golden and cream."

Short Film: Preferably Blue
"Preferably Blue" directed by Alan Dickson
Told using a series of narrated rhymed couplets, this dark take on the Easter bunny is like Tim Burton's re-telling of the Grinch Who Stole Christmas. In Preferably Blue, the Easter Bunny indulges a deep-seated grudge against Santa, but under-estimates the jolly old soul.

Easter egg decorating is
a fun way to welcome spring, but sometimes the chemical dyes are hard
to justify, especially when you're feeding the results to children. Here's a chart of natural dyes, and here are three natural dye recipes from around
the web:

"I trucked most of my craft supplies with me on "vacation" in the desperate hope that I might finish these before Easter. After several late nights and only three trips to the craft store..."

"Covered some blown eggs in strips of newspaper using glue, painted the remaining eggs in chalkboard paint. Would be fun for children to draw faces on them or messages"

"Zelda themed eggs I painted for my flatmate for Easter. If you break them, a giant flying whale will appear and tell you the last significant part of your life has all been a dream, and you'll awaken on a floating shipwreck somewhere far away. True story. Happy Easter everyone!"
Tutorial: Easy Kool-Aid Dyed Eggs
"You know when you wait until the last minute to dye Easter eggs, and you go to the store, and there are only sad, broken eggs and an empty space where there used to be egg-dying kits? Yeah, that. I’m kind of that girl.
But if you’re that girl too then I have a brilliant idea for you! Actually, lots of people have had this brilliant idea but this is the first time I’ve tried it. And I’m going to break it down for you. So on the day before Easter when the dye is all gone, just go get some Kool-Aid and you’re golden."
