Eggshell Collage Craft

Materials:

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

• 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.
