Sorting

I mentioned in my Spring Manifesto that I was going to try to enjoy the huge job of sorting all the Easter egg dyes I purchased.

I had to put it on the list because, oy, what a job.

The above is about HALF of the stash I acquired in the week following Easter.

The boxes are certainly too bulky to keep around and they’re filled with a bunch of stuff I don’t want. Those little metal egg-dippers, wax crayons (kept them for who know’s what craft project), tiny stickers (gave them to every mom-of-a-toddler I know).

Once the boxes are open, I cut open the little plastic package they come in and sort them by color in mason jars.

These jars sit on a shelf in my “dyeing studio” (code name: laundry room) and whenever I need a tablet, I pop it out.

If you don’t want to go to the trouble of emptying every grocery store of their egg dye supply, you can pick up just ONE packet in the Boutique. It comes with all the fiber you need and friendly instructions (but NONE of the annoying packaging). Get yours here!
