Instructions in 6 steps Marbled eggs are indispensable part of the traditional Easter decoration. Our black & white decorative eggs look particularly elegant and classy.
Besides the articles listed below, you also need: Dye vessel, Water, Copy paper
And this is how it works:
1

Step 1

Fill a container, e.g. plastic bucket, with cold water. The egg to be marbled must be completely immersed. Skewer the plastic egg and shake the paint well out (approx. 30 sec).
2

Step 2

Always drip the paint close to the water surface.
3

Step 3

Once the paint has dripped into the water, use immediately a wooden skewer to draw the marbling pattern.
4

Step 4

Dip the egg slowly into the water by a circular motion, leave it there for a while and then quickly pull it out.
5

Step 5

Before taking it out blow briefly the water surface, so the paint will flow along the edge. Let the eggs dry vertically on a skewer. After 15 to 30 minutes, the paint is dust-dry.

Step 6

The paint residues remaining on the water surface can be quickly removed with a sheet of paper (with the edge of the paper). For the next marbling, the water must be clean of residues. In case of heavy soiling, use fresh, clean water.
