How fun do these look?! There are loads of Easter egg decorating ideas about but I picked this one from Camille Styles to share because it doesn’t involve anything you won’t already have around the house. Can’t wait to try it this weekend!
Marbled Easter Eggs
Blown eggs (instructions here)
Nail polish (2-3 in a pleasing colour combo)
Plastic tub half-filled with water
Stirring stick
Kitchen towel
Simple drying stand made from card or foam board with drawing pins stuck through
1) Pour a few drops of nail polish into the water.
2) Swirl around with your stirring stick to combine the colours a little – take care not to over-mix.
2) Working carefully but quickly, dip the eggs into the water, twirling them around until they’re covered all over with colour. Set aside on your drying rack.
3) If the nail polish left in the water has become too blended, scoop it off the surface with a plastic spoon and repeat step 1. Carry on until all your eggs are looking pretty.

Have a fabulous Easter weekend and thank you soooo much to those of you who came to visit Joe and I at Somerset House last weekend to preview our new venture. I was really touched and we loved meeting you all in person!
Please keep in mind, when using nonfood methods of dying your eggs, you should never eat them.
I did this with clay pots. It works great and fun too. Eggs will be a blast to do
Smashing…..might have to dye eggs for 4th of July……thank you soooo much for sharing
I have 32 eggs to decorate today (don’t even ask), so I’m definitely going to give this technique a try! Thanks for the tip and have a lovely Easter x
Ha ha… good luck with that Heather! xx
