Easter Sunday is coming up on April 20 and many people are preparing now for the holiday. We figured we could give you a couple of items that you can still have a great time painting this spring. Take a look at these alternatives instead of buying pricey eggs this Easter holiday season.

In Colorado, many factors come into play for egg prices in the state. Recent bird flu outbreaks have caused the prices of eggs to skyrocket in recent months. Couple that with the new law in Colorado that all eggs sold in the state must be cage-free eggs, and you are facing a pretty penny for a dozen eggs. There are also supply chain issues across the United States driving up the prices of eggs. The average price for a dozen eggs in the state of Colorado is currently at $5.77.
