Cool Whip Easter Eggs/ Marbled Eggs

marbled eggs

Forget messing with the store-bought kits—these eggs are the coolest. For best results, soak your eggs in vinegar for a minimum of 2 minutes so the color really clings to the egg shell. We prefer liquid food coloring to gel or powdered food coloring as it's easier to swirl in the cool whip. The best part is, this method uses all edible ingredients, so you can eat the eggs when you're done displaying them! We'd suggest turning them into these ridiculously delicious everything deviled eggs.

5. Remove from whipped cream (you may want to use latex gloves to avoid staining hands) and rinse until no whipped topping remains. Let dry completely on a paper towel and display.

Having a cat or two would make this interesting.

hot glue gun
plastic easter eggs
brown spray paint - do several light coats and let dry before gluing the two halve back together.
pine cone bracts - glue, arrange in a couple-three rows
stick - glue to end of acorn
sisal twine - wind around acorn to cover the ends of the bracts and the stick and form cap.

Could see this done in gold, white or silver and powder the 'eggs' in clear glitter while still wet.

add a string of led lights in the pail

Person commented that when the temperature fluctuated throughout the day, they would expand or contract, and many of them would break apart and there were balls all over her yard.

Easy fix if you are decorating a large indoor space. Wonder if you put a hole in the ball if that would allow equalization so shrinkage wouldn't occur. Too if the pail is plastic and spray painted silver or gold......
