This one I blew out the insides and painted. It is sparkly an pretty. I gave it to my friend to match her orange and purple kitchen as a hostess gift for the Easter party that she did for our families.
These next few were done by wrapping a silk tie around the egg with the right side of the fabric next to the egg (cut the tie so that the fabric is just big enough to wrap around the egg). Then place the wrapped egg in a small sock, or secure it with the inside lining of the tie and secure it with a rubber band or string. Place the eggs in a skillet with enough water to cover the egg. Bring to a boil. Turn off the stove and let sit for 15 minutes. Drain the hot water and cover the eggs with cold water and ice. When the ice cubes melt, unwrap the eggs. The results are beautiful and very detailed:
This one was two toned:
This is the egg that was blown out and painted by Jarom:

Wow! What amazing eggs! Those are so beautiful. I had no idea you could use ties to decorate them. Awesome. -- Annie, I believe you were the one who made 25 adorable little take-out boxes as an advent calendar for your kids for Christmas. You're an awesome mom.
Those are amazing! Well done!
