* While your eggs are drying, grab your green craft felt.
* Cut out two-inch wide, long strips out of the felt. One strip per egg.
* Now cut slits along the side half way up, all the way to the end of our strip to create a fringe.
* Once done, start rolling it up like a carrot top and hot glue it all together so it doesn’t come unraveled.
* To finish off your Paper Mache Carrot Eggs – hot glue your felt pieces to the top of each egg.
* Then display proudly {or use for pretend play with your child!}

STRAWBERRY EGGS!
Not a fan of carrots? You can also make “strawberries” this way as well! Just change the paint to red and make your felt pieces a little bit smaller than you would for carrots. ALSO I drew on “strawberry seeds” with a black Sharpie. Just as easy and perfect for summer!
PINEAPPLE EGG!
Take the idea and make a pineapple instead! Just use yellow paint, a brown Sharpie and extend the felt to be a little bit longer!
