What I Did: My co-worker and I wanted to make these yarn eggs, minus the candy inside, to use as decorations around the office. We made them in the afternoon, guessing on the glue to water ratio and crossed our fingers as we left for the night.

My Result:

Next Time I Will: I think if I try this again, I will use a measuring spoon and get a 1:1 ratio of glue to water. I’d also try to hanging the balloon up so that the newspaper wouldn’t stick to the yarn - or use wax paper.

      Spray starch doesn’t work either. Not if you live in humid climates, anyhow. I wish I had a picture of my attempt at an awesome ghost project from pinterest. It was pathetic. LMAO

    i did something similar to this once in school, but we dipped it in sugar water. It turned out perfect!
