One quick not, you will need to have something that you can hot glue the bottom of the egg to so that it stands upright. Here are some ideas of some things you could use as a base for the vase, but find something that goes along with the theme of your party:
- a small tile from Home Depot
- glass beads
- flat stone
- piece of matzah (for Passover)
- painted flat stainless washers (Home Depot)
How to make an eggshell bud vase
Step One: Use a needle or a sharp knife to carefully prick a hold in the top of the egg (careful not to break the egg).
Step Two: Use the tip of a sharp knife to carefully make the hole larger (gently chip pieces away)
Step Three: Drain the egg (save the egg to make something yummy)
Step Four: Rinse the inside of the egg and let dry
Step Five: Hot glue to a base (see above ideas) and let dry
Step Six: Fill the egg with a little water and flowers
Will the egg shell hold the water for a long period of time so I can prepare them with flowers the night before Easter?
Sorry, just saw this – I would fill them the day you want to use them to be safe
I love your egg vase, and the cracker underneath it, is so cute. Hope you had a Happy Easter.
Thanks so much!
