Marble Eggs

Large glass jar
Crayon stubs
Vegetable grater
Hot water
Wax paper or newspaper
Empty egg carton
Clear acrylic spray (optional)

Grate peeled crayons over wax paper. Fill jar with very hot water. Drop bits of grated crayon into water. Add hard boiled or blown egg as soon as crayon begins to melt. Twirl egg in water with spoon. The wax should make a design on the egg. Carefully remove egg and set upside-down in egg carton to dry.

When eggs are dry, spray with clear acrylic to seal.
