Ingredients
- eggs
- Easter egg color kit
- vinegar optional for vibrant colored eggs
- tissue paper cut into small squares
- glue
- Paper confetti or hole punched construction paper
Instructions
- Prepare the egg decorating work area by covering your table with newspaper, craft paper, or a plastic tablecloth.
- Be sure to have plenty of napkins handly for little decorators to dry their hands on or to clean up any spills.
- With a spoon, gently tap the top of an egg.
- Remove the bits of shell, peeling away enough to make a small 1/2-inch hole.
- Empty contents of the egg out into a bowl.
- Thoroughly rinse the eggshell and shake out excess water. Let the eggshell air dry upside down in an empty egg carton.
- Dye the eggshells using an egg coloring kit. Add a splash of vinegar to the dye for vibrant color.
- When the eggshells are dry fill with confetti.
- Once filled, apply glue around the outside of the hole and cover with tissue paper.
- Make a dozen or more and celebrate Easter by breaking your cascarones over your friends' or family members' heads.
Notes
- Brown eggs produce pretty earthy colors, and usually need to sit in the dye a bit longer.
