5.0 out of 5 stars This is a wonderful book, August 31, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Art of Decorating Eggs (Paperback)
I love just looking at this book, the photographs are so beautiful. The only problem is that they look as if you will never be able to recreate them! There are some unusual techniques I had never seen before, such as using vinegar to make holes in the egg, and everything is explained very clearly. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in decorated eggs - it's a great place to start if you want to have a go yourself, and if you just like looking at beautiful objects, there are some on every page.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Art of Decorating Eggs, December 25, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Art of Decorating Eggs (Paperback)
Not your usual egg decoration book, but an excellent addition to the egg decorator's library. This book has many interesting techniques but some require drawing skills.

5.0 out of 5 stars Breath Taking!, September 7, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Art of Decorating Eggs (Paperback)
This is a book for the serious egg artist and/or decorator. It features multiple techniques that range from simple masking and collage eggs to sculpting and optical illusion eggs. However, the techniques are presented in such a way that with determination and some artistic skill, one could master them with some practice. I highly recommend this book.
