Click here to see all of the beautiful eggs!
There is a site that my husband enjoys viewing at least once a day, called Metafilter (warning, content not always safe for younger viewers). You never know what you're going to find linked off of it. There are interesting sites, world news, etc. Yesterday, this was linked and I thought it was really neat. I never knew that this was done. Apparently, beginning in 1994, every state, including Washington D.C., chooses an artist to decorate an egg and those eggs are then presented to the President and First Lady. They're all different, and some of them doen't even look like eggs anymore. They range from gaudy to exquisite works of art to silly items that my children might have done (see Wyoming). All of them are wonderful though.
Here is Idaho's presentation by talented artist Russ Hagen.
