As A fun afternoon activity, my boyfriend and I decided to try it out!
But not before Cain tried to balance as many eggs as he could.
Now, since I pretty much suck at following, or even reading, instructions, I kinda just went ahead and did this project my own way, first, hollowing out two eggs, and wrapping them in fabric I was pretty sure wasn't silk, but I wanted to try it anyway.
What I hadn't planned on was that hollow egg shells float. So we conjured up this make-shift contraption to hold them under the water.
Those ones didn't turn out. They came out of the water just as white as they were, going in. I plan to paint them later.
So then we tried the silk ones!
Even before we unwrapped them, we were pretty sure something had happened, 'cause the water looked like this.
We waited for the eggs to cool and dry, and then...
TA- DAAA!!!
The eggs are so beautiful!! I was practically giggling, I was so pleased!
The tutorial was right; ugly ties make beautiful eggs!
I just wish they could've been hollowed out, so I could display them.
