If you have little ones, then you definitely have wax pastels. Due to the fatty texture they contain, they are ideal for coloring eggs. Boil the eggs and start drawing on them while they are still hot. The pastel color will melt, and you will create eye-catching and completely different eggs with different shades. Watercolors are another way to design personalized eggs, and all you need are thin brushes and a little skill.

Take the egg in your hand and dip it in the paint with the lower part and hold it for about one minute, longer if necessary.
