eggs-traordinary

The girls and I have been working on very special Easter eggs to be revealed first thing Monday morning.

They are eggs-traordinary and I promise they aren't like anything you've ever seen before. How's that for a tease? Until then, here are a few Easter craft articles from a 1963 Jack & Jill magazine.

Be sure to left click on the images to enlarge.

Aren't the graphics lovely?

    What fun family memories you've given me. I used to read Jack and Jill magazines all the time when I was young - I bet I red that when it was first published. Very fun visit for Rednesday :) Thank you.
