Fabric Scrap Easter Eggs

Posted on the 26 March 2012 by Vixenmade @vixenMade

Easter is two weeks away.  Say what?
Easter is always sneaking up on me.. every year!  This time it seems more so.
So I've been busy putting up final touches in the Easter decor.  
And since I can never find anything at the stores in the colors I want, I've been making a lot of the decorations myself.  
Today I'm sharing with you how I made my fabric scrap Easter eggs.

Cut your fabric width to be long enough to wrap around the egg lengthwise.

Cut 1/2 notches in your fabric.

Tear your fabric apart at each notch.  This will give the fabric a frayed, shabby look.

Starting at the bottom of your egg, add a dab of hot glue.
