Wow! I never knew you could achieve all this with eggs but it sounds fascinating. I'm pretty sure I'd be too clumsy to try out the museum quality designs but I'd like to get my hands on the rest of them. Maybe it's a new art form in disguise. Lovely review, I'd be sure to check this one out!

Thanks for your review. It sounds like this book will appeal to more skilled crafters and is way out of my league. However I'm sure I would find the pictures and techniques fascinating and it would make a beautiful coffee table book.

I agree that giving verbal instructions is often easier than penning them in writing. I'm glad that the author has managed to thoroughly provide clear and concise steps for her designs. I love decors. However, I've never engaged in making some before. So I don't think this is my type of read. Anyway, thank you for this wonderful review!

A step-by-step book on how to purchase eggs for festive holidays sounds educating. I'd love to know what this book entails. Thanks for the review.

Eventhough I'm not an Easter celibrator I would like to look at these fabulous masterpieces of the author. I'm sure this will be a good how-to-do for those who are interested in trying. Thank you for a great review.

I used to love coloring eggs (one of the few things I actually liked about Easter) but fell out of the practice partly because I hated using real eggs. This book sounds like it could give me ideas for alternative eggs, like wooden ones, that I could use to explore an old interest if I ever have free time again. Thank you for the helpful review.

This book sounds like a very interesting read about the author's decorative Easter eggs. I'm not very artsy so I would probably not end up using the designs, but I'm sure I would enjoy looking at the photos

I actually tried to make some of the eggs. They turned out very nice. I made one that looked like it was wrapped in a candy wrapper.
