Easter Eggs

Water Warrior 2 · 04-09-2012, 01:21 AM

Friend of mine told me about some fun with the grand kids and painted Easter Eggs. He gave each child a specific egg and said gently peel off the shell for a surprise. And were they surprised. Each egg had the child's name written on the hard boiled egg white. Really neat. Can you guess how this is done ??

Some dye that penetrates the shell and then dye the shell?

Very close. Jim paints on the name in a mixture of white olive oil and alum on the hard boiled egg. After it penetrates and dries he does the whole egg in Easter colors.

Right click the smilie and save to your computer.
Then post and down there at "If you wish to attach one or more files... etc." click "browse" and select the smilie on your disk.
Click "Add the file". It will be uploaded.
It will be listed at "Attachments"... see that "Place inline" box? Click it.

Presto:

Now if I could just get rid of that "attachments" box...

:lol: :lol: No pics so far. Why don't we all try with our own eggs. Post results/pics and laugh at our efforts.

Fixed.

All you have to do is put whatever image link you want in IMG brackets:

[ i m g ] LINK HERE [ / i m g ]

Just like that, only without the spaces.
