Meet the Egglady
I discovered the joy of egg painting and decorating in 1979 when Clara Lee, a friend and local egg artist gave me a family egg at Christmas. I was absolutely awe-stricken by it’s beauty and intricate detail. Never did I think I could produce egg art so exquisite. With never ending patience, she taught me egg artistry techniques that we improved on through the years. In my first months of egg painting and decorating, Clara would ask “Have you dreamed about eggs yet?” When I could finally say “yes,” she replied, “OK, now you’re hooked!” Yep. Hooked for a lifetime!
For many years, I sold through local retail stores and craft shows. Then along came the internet and I was able to offer my ornaments to a wider audience.
An eggshell is a blank canvas that can be transformed into anything a creative mind can dream up. My best design ideas come from my customers. So if you have an idea for the “most fabulous egg design ever,” I’d love to hear it!
Egg painting and decorating is an ongoing blessing in my life. It has been the gateway to opportunities for friendships and memorable experiences. My favorite of all time was being invited to Washington, D.C. to see my egg on display at the White House Visitors center while enjoying the company of First Lady Laura Bush and egg artists from 44 states.
I am very honored that you have visited and hope you find the perfect eggshell ornament.
