Paper Tole Egg

front_view. This egg was one of the more complex things I've tried, as egging goes. (It's a duck egg inside of a goose egg.)

The techniques involved are paper tole, trellis work, cording and adding beads, crystals and gold highlights.

None of it was "hard" per se, but it was very time-consuming. I like the end result though.

This egg is not quite finished. I am working on a tiny fairy to live inside.
