Marbleized EggsMatthew Mead

These pretty swirled patterns are made by passing an egg through a bath of enamel paint suspended in water. The process is easy and the pleasantly unpredictable results are always a surprise.

Tip:

• If you wish, paint the eggs before marbleizing them; be sure to let them dry before dipping them in the marbleizing bath.
