Jelly Beans
By Carolyn Warvel
Five or six, or just a few,
Pop them in your mouth and chew,
Yellow, purple, orange, and blue,
Just remember it is true,
Jesus died for me and you.

Easter egg shells make great confetti! Try to keep the shells as big as possible when peeling your eggs because it will make it easier to use the colored side of the eggs for the confetti. Dry the egg shells in a warm oven in a pie tin before using them. Place glue on the picture where you want the egg shell confetti, and then place the egg shell on the glue. If the confetti pieces are too big and hang over the lines, just press down on the shells with you finger nail to break off the extra pieces. See link to the printable pattern above.
