These guys are easy to do. A little wheat and some permanent markers is all you really need.

I posted a tutorial for them at Suite101.

I will share this at all the usual parties. To see what parties I attend and view some wonderful creativity view my party links!!

easter egg candles

These are fun and easy to make - plus I think they look pretty and springy sitting on the tarnished candle-stick holder.

geode easter eggs to make with your kids

These are fun to do with your kids. Especially if you've got a kid like C who loves to make charts - she made a diagram to keep track of the results and everything.

Easter Egg Geodes: food coloring, egg shells, hot water, minerals

The egg below used sea salt - just the generic table sea salt from the grocery store. I like how the solution soaked through the egg and grew crystals on the outside too.

Unfortunately, I lost the chart C made so I am not sure but I think the egg below used Borax.

The coolest eggs by far were these eggs which used Epsom salt. Tip: Epsom salt can be bought at Dollar Tree, for...you guessed it 1 dollar!!

The eggs (especially the Epsom salt eggs) were remarkably tough to break - but we had tremendous fun studying the crystals.

Oh, one tip. If you plan on making these start them several weeks in advance (unless you live in a really, really dry climate). It takes awhile for the mineral solution to evaporate.

I wrote a complete tutorial for these which you can find at Suite101.

I am sharing this at lots of great sites, check them out.
