Create These Unusual Easter Eggs By Using A Sharpie and Some Hollowed-out Egg Shells

Easy
You don't need to be an artist to create these eggs for Easter. I saw these eggs in a little shop in Buenos Aires, Argentina and realized how cute and easy they are. This is how you make them: First, you need to empty the eggs out by putting a small hole in each end, and blowing the egg out. It is easier if you use a toothpick first to scramble the egg while it is still in the shell. Then think up some free-hand designs and draw them onto the egg shell. Then go over it with a Sharpie. Any color would work, but the black adds some drama. The last step is to cover them with a clear sealer to add some sheen and to prevent smears. They are the perfect activity for the kids.

I did this several years ago. But I spayed a clear coat on a few, and it made the sharpie run, and smear... spread out... I was most unhappy.
