Ever wanted to know how to blow eggs for making Easter decorations? It’s so easy and fun to do! ***step by step instructions below***.  

What you need: 

• eggs, 
• thumb tacks, 
• cocktail sticks, 
• bowl, 
• straws (optional).   

What you do:

•  gently but firmly push the tack/pin through the pointy end of the egg.
•  now push the tack through the other end of the egg. 
• take a cocktail stick and carefully insert it through one of the holes. 
• swirl the stick around in order to break up the yolk. 
• the cocktail stick also helps to make the holes a little bigger and easier for the yolk and white to be removed. 
• place your mouth over one of the holes and blow through the hole (can take a little effort!!) and the insides should come out through the other end and into your bowl (perfect for scrambled eggs, French toast or baking later) 
• you can also place a straw over one of the holes and blow through it, I just find it too fiddly . 
• run water through the egg and blow it out to clean it out. 
• leave to dry and then decorate! 

Happy Easter, have fun!
