These Easter eggs are just the right thing for experienced hobbyists. There is a need for tact and patience. The effort is rewarded by a great result. Since working with blown eggs can quickly break an egg, I recommend you to use a plastic Easter egg for the first time. The difference can hardly be recognized later, but you save disappointed faces. How to implement these Easter eggs from eggshells step by step, you will find out here. Have fun!
Use different colored egg shells, which you collect and let dry already days before.
First you crush the eggshells with a flat hand on the table and leave them broken apart in colour.
Now you put a blown-out egg on a shishlikstab and fix it with a piece of cork. Then you put wood glue on the top and start to stick the eggshells on.
Do not stick the eggshells on top of each other, but leave gaps between the eggshells. The wood glue becomes transparent when drying!
As soon as the cap is glued, put the second cork on her. Because this way the egg can be held and glued better.
Due to its thick consistency, wood glue is very practical for gluing the egg shells. These adhere quickly and can still be moved and put into shape.
If the entire egg is glued, you pull the cork back and place the egg with the wooden skewer over the lid of an egg box for drying. Important: The egg must not lie on any place!
After drying you make the hanger. For this you need a burnt match (or toothpick) and a thread. Put the thread double on the table and the match diagonally on it. Now you pull the closed thread loops apart a little, so that a small loop develops.
Now you put the double thread on the other side through the loop and push the loop to the match. Thus the thread holds on the match. Now push the knot into the lower half of the match and break the match in half.
Now you push the thread with the match into the upper opening of the ice. Make sure that the knot does not slip from the match.
If the match disappears in the egg, it positions itself and thus holds the thread to hang up. Then you knot the open thread end and the suspension is ready.
Finally decorates the egg with eggshells on an Easter bouquet.
Stay creative and have fun trying out and decorating!
