TIPS FOR VINEGAR-CARVING

- When covering the egg with the pre-cut insulating tape, use wider stripes first and apply the thinner ones last, as it will be easier to peal them off later.
- Apply the smallest amount possible of super glue at the end of the stripes.
- Use white vinegar (more acid, faster dissolving of the shell) and place somewhere warm
- Take the eggs out of the vinegar with EXTRA care, without applying ANY pressure at all, as they easily brake. Tilt the glass while doing so.
- After a few hours, Rinse the eggs in warm water one time during the dissolving part, to check the status of the shell. If the soft membrane reveals itself when rinsing, then the process is complete.
- Later I found out its best pealing off the tape BEFORE blowing out the egg, because it´s still a bit pressurized and so provides some support to the perforated shell.
- Soak the egg in water for a few hours before blowing it out, as it will empty itself better Instead of soaking the egg in dissolvent, simply leave it to dry. Then gently pull the remaining soft membrane out of the shell. If it does not separate easily from the shell, soak it again in water for a couple of hours and try again.
- Harden the shell with wood glue or mud podge AFTER you spray painted it. The paint sticks better to a raw shell.
- For spraying, use a paper bag and place some crumpled paper at the bottom of it, then put the eggs on top of it. The crumpled paper will keep the eggs in place as you spray.

Enjoy inventing your own egg carving patterns!

Beautiful Egg shell engraving art.

I use clear nail polish on the egg after I dye/paint it, then dip it in vinegar. Same idea as the tape, but you can make any shape at all. Your idea for blowing an egg is the best ever!!!!

Wow! Very cool. I just found you and sadden that you only have one video. I hope all is well with you. Please do make more videos when you can.

What a great idea.Thanks for a inexpensive art form, Eggscellent!I ain’t yolking!

[alexnicholson]

Really cool idea. I have never seen that done before. More importantly though, it was shot so beautifully! It looked very professional. I loved the really up-close shots of the bubbles coming from the eggs when they were in the vinegar. Great job. I subscribed.

Thanks… that was a great video… I was searching for away to cut an egg in half. I’m an artist and I’ve been working on placing tiny scenes/objects inside of eggs … I have been doing customized designs that are personal to the recipient… placing these little sculptures/objects/scenes are a bit limited by the size of the opening in the egg and I’d live to be able to cut some eggshells in two to allow more flexibility in design and then reattach the two parts… I mostly finish with a loop at the top so they can be displayed as an ornament of sorts. Some designs are the entire egg with no opening in the shell and some are placed in an decorative holder for display. I hope to see some more if your videos soon and I would love to have suggestions to cut eggs in half… I’ve used a rotary tool but it’s tricky and mostly they crack before cutting is achieved. Thanks … looking forward to your second post

This was beautifully done. I used to do this a long long time ago, when I was little. Skipping the drain cleaner part, we would just carefully pick the membrane out by hand. Also, we didn't use tape, we would use rubber bands or melted wax.

I LOVE THIS CHANNEL JUST FOUND I carve emu eggs into trinket boxes I just finished making a beautiful gorgeous stunning jewelry box out of an ostrich egg wish I could show you.
Thank you Namaste 🙏

[claygirl]

Outstanding videography! The eggs came out great!

[opossumdreams]

I’d like to see how it would work with quail eggs, thicker shells. Please do more videos!!!

[janicechroman]

Wow beautiful. Lot of time and patience.

[Lccastaldo]

This was such a beautiful video to present your technique. I just blew out 21 of my chicken's eggs and I am excited to see if this works on already hollow eggs! Egg-cited to find new things to do with all these eggs!

[faynslovenia]
