How to Make Marbled Easter Eggs using Nail Polish and Easter Eggs plus easy DIY Egg Drying Rack Tutorial.

How to Make Marbled Easter Eggs

Dyeing eggs is so fun! We shared with you before, Easter Egg Ideas that are outside of the box. Today we have more Easter Egg ideas – How to Make Marbled Easter Eggs with Nail Polish. This egg dyeing process is really easy. We also share and easy tutorial on how to make your own Egg drying rack from a floral foam brick.

I have many memories of dyeing eggs as a kid. They were all of using short plastic cups and adding my hard boiled egg to colored water. If I was lucky, we got a kit with little paper stands or even stickers – stickers were my favorite. We then displayed the eggs in Easter grass – my how times changes with the evolution of Pinterest!

Many of these supplies you likely have in your home. Trying gathering old nail polish bottles that are almost out, otherwise pick up this Cheap Nail Polish set. We suggest gloves to keep the marbled pattern off your hands, but have some nail polish remover near by for a quick and easy clean up.

Marbled Easter Eggs Supplies:

How to Make Marbled Easter Eggs:

First, prepare your eggs. You can hard boil your eggs or use a small needle to blow the eggs out. If you blow the eggs out, you will be able to save them and use them year after year!

Second, you want to prep your drying rack.

In a piece of craft foam, place flat head pins in. This will allow your eggs to dry without having to be fully set down. You will appreciate this as it will keep your dyed eggs from becoming smudged!

Once your eggs are cooled, fill a small bowl with room temperature water.

Next pour nail polish in a swirling pattern on the water. If the water is the right temperature, the polish should float to the top. This is your goal!

You can mix different colors or stick to one color. We prefer a good swirl of colors.

To get a good swirl, use a toothpick to create a swirling pattern.

Put your gloves on to protect your skin. You do get some on you when placing your egg in the mixture. Dunk your egg into the polish water and set on the Easter egg drying rack to dry. You will be able to usually get half of the egg dyed at once, so have patience!

Allow to dry and then finally repeat on the other side if desired.

Enjoy your eggs! I get you will get many compliments! Don’t forget our other Easter Egg Dyeing Ideas!

This easy to-do DIY makes memories that will last forever. After dyeing, celebrate Easter this season with your kid’s favorite tradition, Easter egg hunting!

(I have to insert that the paragraph above was written by my fifth grader. I have learned to embrace her presence and put her to work on some of her first tasks of work and helping mom out. Normally she helps by picking up toys or watching her younger siblings, but today I gave her a stab at writing an introductory paragraph to our Easter egg rice post. I’d say she did a pretty good job!)

Happy Easter and happy dyeing!

Many of these supplies you likely have in your home. I think you could make these without shopping, but below are the four supplies and ingredients you need!

Riced Dyed Easter Eggs Supplies:

How to Dye Easter Eggs with Rice:

First, hard boil your eggs on your own. There are many recipes online for making the best hardboiled eggs – I like the way we hardboiled eggs in this post, Reversed Easter Egg Deviled Eggs.

Once you have cooled hard boiled eggs, place one cup of rice into each baggie and add 7-8 drops of food coloring into each one. Close bag and squish the rice around so all the color mixes in well.

Once mixed well, open up and place one hard-boiled egg inside. Close bag and shake the bag around until you have your desired color.

You will repeat step 2 until all the eggs are colored. Have fun mixing two or three colors or make a fun rainbow egg with all the colors.

After all eggs are complete, place back in carton or on paper towels to dry and store in refrigerator. You can check out our drying rack tutorial if you want to make your own.
