Material: eggs, a vessel filled with warm water, oil, tempera paints
1. If you don’t have plastic eggs, hard boil some eggs & allowthem to cool down.2. Paint these eggs in different colors & allow them to
completely dry.(Tip: These are base colors- so they should be light!)
4. Pour warm water in a vessel and mix in a dark color paint(Tip: this color will stand out over the base color)
5. Pour in a few drops of oil- and give it a swirl with adisposable spoon/craft stick
6. Dip in the eggs one by one, so a layer of oil & dark paintcoat most of the egg - immediately place it aside to dry.
As oil doesn’t dissolve in water, it separates from the paint andcreates a beautiful marble effect over the surface of the egg

Page of13 16
Material: Eggs, a vessel containing warm water, nail polish, tongs/pincers
Instead of oil, we use nail polish!#
1. Pour a few drops of nail polishinto the warm water in the vessel.
2. Let the drops spread to form afilm over the surface of the water
3. With tongs/pincers, dip in the eggs, so the filmcoats most of the egg- and immediately put itaside to dry
(TIP: Unlike normal marbling, the use of tongs isnecessary! Nail polish is a nightmare to take offchildren’s hands!)
