For our Freebie Friday project today, we thought about something that would go hand-in-hand with Earth Day and Good Friday. So,we decided on these paper mache "re-purposed" sheet music eggs!
First, gather your supplies: paper mache eggs, sheet music (or patterned paper, fabric), Mod Podge, paint brush
Once you have cut your sheet music in 1/2" strips, you simply cover the egg with some Mod Podge and add the strips. Cover the strips with Mod Podge as well. We found you need to be generous with the Mod Podge.
After you have totally covered your egg, put a nice coat of Mod Podge over the entire egg and allow to dry thoroughly before decorating. Notice that we used two different colors of sheet music - one is much older.
To decorate our eggs, we used punches, card stock and pearls. We used Crumb Cake and Black card stock, 5-petal flower punch and the Trio flower (retired) punch, a pearls.
Here are the two finished eggs!
Thanks for stopping! Celebrate Earth Day by creating re-purposed projects! Melissa and Gayla
