(no, not Sam I Am's green eggs)
these are the green kind, as in:
"reduce"
"recycle"
"re-use"
I made these "green eggs"
by blowing out the innards and gluing on various kinds of paper:
an old map
a page from Pride and Prejudice
a dictionary page
an old cookbook
saved wrapping paper
and
security envelopes
:)
Happy Earthday
Happy Easter
p.s. here's a good how-to that I found:
Martha Stewart "Elegant Eggs"
it's basically identical to the way I made mine

FABULOUS!
I could have these eggs every day of the year!
ps: can you tell me how you cut the paper strips? (i noticed they are wider in the middle and narrow-er on the ends)
What a fantasitc idea, I think I will use these ideas in the classroom!
The eggs are gorgeous - I do not have the patience to successfully get the yolk out of eggs!!! I used to color my cockatiel's eggs-the yoks are so tiny they just dry up. The colored eggs so tiny and cute!!!
Yous are very art-full!!! Happy Easter to you and your family!
These are really beautiful! I wish I had time to make some before Sunday, but I don't. Glad I get to enjoy yours.
I love your R-R-R eggs! Happy Earthday!
Happy Earth Day, I love your beautiful eggs!
Have a great Easter :)
your creations ALWAYS make me smile. Heading to the grocery - gotta get those eggs!
These will be so fun to unpack every year! Neat.
i *love* doing these, but we fill them with confetti and smoosh them on each other's heads.

My mother used to do this type of egg every year when we were children -- I'm still a dunker, though, as are my children!
Hi Kimmie, your "green" eggs turned out beautifully! Wishing you and yours a blessed Easter weekend. Tammy
Fantastic Kimmie! Not only did you RRR but you can keep for next year. Happy Easter. xox Corrine
Love your eggs !! They are beautiful, all of them but especially the "envelopes. I knew you would do something great with these
I bet you could do this with the plastic kind too, to make them a little more durable so they can last season to season. They look fantastic!
Peace~

I think you could have your own local Martha Stewarty show. You are so clever. Happy Easter.

Enjoying these eggs and your blog and art - funny that the map one is focused on Flagstaff as that is where I am - take that to mean I should leave a comment!
