Vinyl and Rice and All Things Nice

This is a great Easter project you can involve the kids in (they can help out with everything but the sewing, depending on the age of course). I found the tutorial on the wonderful MADE blog. Here's what I did:
  • Use food coloring to color rice. I used Wilton in red and purple and the Norwegian 'konditorfarge' in yellow. (The yellow didn't work out too great, only about half of the rice took color.) Let dry overnight. 
  • Cut out egg shapes from clear vinyl (I bought my vinyl on Ebay) and sew two and two together, leaving an opening at the bottom. 
  • Fill with rice and sew shut. Of course, the eggs can be filled with anything. I used green mung beans for one of them:
  • Hang up and watch them spin in the wind!
