How to Make DIY Confetti Eggs:
DIY Materials Needed
- Raw eggs
- Egg dye (we used good ol’ vinegar and food coloring)
- Confetti (or birdseed, fruity pebbles, or your filler of choice)
- Gold Glitter
- Tissue paper (we used a round 1″ punch to make our tissue paper perfectly sized)
- Glue
- Pin/Needle
- Scissors
DIY Decorations Directions:
- Using your sewing pin, poke a single, small hole at the top of an egg.
- Open up a larger hole at the bottom of the larger part of the egg.
- If your yolk is too large, sometimes it helps to use a toothpick or something to stir the yolk up and make it more liquid
- Let the egg drain out of the larger hole into a bowl, blowing the residue out through the small pin hole in the top of the egg if you need to encourage the yolk out a little more quickly. Rinse the egg shell (you can add a little bleach to get rid of the egg smell) and allow it to dry.
- Use food coloring to color the eggshell (you’ll have to fill the hollow shell with dye to make it stay submerged); allow to dry thoroughly.
- Fill the egg about halfway with confetti (or whatever you decide to put inside). Use a funnel if needed.
- Cut a piece of tissue paper slightly larger in size than the egg’s hole. Glue the paper to the edges of the hole.
- Voila. Your eggs are filled. You are ready to party.
