My kitchen counter is an egg sorting station based upon the destiny of each; some eggs will be hatched, eaten by my family, gifted and blown for various purposes including display or crafting and selling to fellow crafters, magazines and egg aficionados. During the egg-blowing process some eggs don’t make the cut to be sold due to an imperfection, but, being an egg hoarder, I can’t bear to throw out a beautiful egg shell, which has left me with a stash of eggs ideally suited for certain craft projects, Easter Egg decorating and egg dyeing.
My daughters appreciate a good knock-knock joke, so I decided to fill some blown eggs with laughter this Easter instead of the usual candy, toys or money. The eggs will be cracked open to reveal the funny within.

Love all your giveaways! Already friends with EggCarton :)
Now the my hens are laying I would love to win the basket for collecting them.
This would be the gem in the crown for gathering eggs from my first flock…thank you!
What wonderful ideas! I am always amazed at the artistry of the eggs my talented chickens lay for me. I never even thought about blowing them out and keeping them for crafting projects! This could be a dangerous thing for me… where will I put them all?! And that basket! My poor little egg basket just isn't a match for the great big turkey eggs I have been collecting! It would be perfect!
I would love for a chance to win this basket. I have 10 little chicks–my first ones and I don't have a basket yet. I don't actually don't have a facebook account either. Thanks!
