Wooden eggs? Where to buy?

In the current (April) issue of _Beads & Buttons_ on page 103
there's an article called _Spiral Treasures_. It uses 2 1/2 by 1
3/4" flat-bottomed wooden eggs, which are decorated with a net of
beads. The result is quite attractive.

Anyone have any idea where the base wooden eggs of about this
size can be purchased? Michaels? If so, which department?
Otherwise...?

Maybe the kit offered at the end of the article? Anyone buy one
of these? What did you think? How much?

TIA

Ken

I think I saw them in one of the big crafts stores like Michael's in the
woodworking dept.

I bought some last year at Michaels', painted them with
acrylic paint in an off-white/eggshell finish, and used a foam brush.
They worked great and look terrific when beaded.

take care, Linda
