How-To
Start by hard-boiling some eggs! I like to make them on the stovetop like this:
You can also use your Instant Pot and follow their recipe for hard-boiled eggs.
Now for the fun part:
- Fill a plastic bowl or container with room temperature water. The water must be room temperature as cold water will cause the nail polish to sink to the bottom.
- Choose your nail polish color. I chose this watermelon color.
- Put on your gloves and add a few drops of polish into the water. Swirl it around quickly with a plastic utensil or wooden skewer.
- Place one egg into the water and swirl it around. Lift the egg out and place it in a carton to dry.
- Repeat for each egg, adding a few more drops of polish to the water as necessary.
I usually use the Paas coloring kits but I love that these Easter eggs have an overall marbleized effect. Each one will be unique and it’s a great way to finish up any old nail polish you have lying around!
