DIY Easter Eggs

 

Creativity is fuel. There’s something therapeutic about working with your hands and creating. With Easter weekend around the corner and life at home taking on a new meaning, we’re sharing a fun little DIY for adults and kids alike.

Add a little colour or sparkle to your home with these egg-cellent ideas!

Hollowing out the eggs

  1. Take a small nail or needle and poke holes both on the top and bottom of the egg.

  2. Stick either the nail/ needle or a toothpick into the hole, stir so as to break up the yoke.

  3. Over a bowl, take the wider end of the egg and blow into hole so that the egg yoke and white exits into the bowl. Set aside for incorporating into any baking opportunities.

  2. Fill tupper ware container with room temperature water. Keep in mind, if the water is too cold, the nail polish will sink.

  3. Add a few drops of nail polish to the water, and stir for a marbling affect. You will want to act fast as the nail polish will set.
