Easter is one of my favorite times of the year. I love being outside and seeing all the flowers blooming. However, I am not a fan of the pollen due to my allergies, but I will manage. One of my favorite things to do be creative and fill Easter baskets and dye Easter eggs.

Why are eggs a symbol of Easter?

From History.com, Easter eggs are likely linked to pagan traditions. Although eggs, in general, were a traditional symbol of fertility and rebirth, in Christianity, for the celebration of Eastertide, Easter eggs symbolize the empty tomb of Jesus, from which Jesus resurrected.

Decorating eggs for Easter is a tradition that dates back to at least the 13th century, according to some sources. One explanation for this custom is that eggs were formerly a forbidden food during the Lenten season, so people would paint and decorate them to mark the end of the period of penance and fasting, then eat them on Easter as a celebration.

Those darn little kits sure are convenient, but now it is time to be crafty!
