With the Easter Holidays right around the corner, there's no better time to start planning out some fun activities for you and your family, and these adorable felt-covered eggs are a great way to get into the holiday spirit.
While traditional Easter eggs are decorated with vibrant colors and patterns, it's so widely done that it starts to lose visual appeal, but this exciting DIY activity adds texture and pizzazz to your average egg design. Simply take a plastic egg, tape it shut, then wrap it with a layer of slightly damp wool or felt. Place it inside a pair of panty hose and throw it inside the washing machine -- this serves to give it that fuzzy exterior appearance. Use a knife to cut open the middle and you're free to fill this lovely felt-covered egg with any treats you desire.
