Video tutorial: DIY marble eggs
I never been a big fan of decorating my home for the holidays. It’s not that I don’t like the holiday spirit, it’s just that I like things tidy and minimalistic, and having tiny easter bunnies og santas around kind of takes away from this idea.
But when I first saw a picture of a marble easter egg, I had to try it. After all, marble is still the most beautyful pattern of all. I got my fingers all covered with nail polish, I emptied two of my favorite bottles, and I ruined a bowl, but it turns out I’m a fan of holiday decorations after all. Who would have guessed.
Tools and materials

Tutorial
