You Will Need (4 things)

  • Egg(s)
  • Confetti
  • Tissue Paper
  • Glue

Steps (5 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    Puncture a hole in the bottom of each egg. Remove egg yolks and whites, rinse eggs in soapy water and allow to dry.

    While you wait, make a batch of confetti. I used hole punches and store-bought glitter.

  2. 2

    Once the eggs are dry, fill each with confetti and your save the date message. Glue a small piece of tissue paper over the opening.

  3. 3

    We created tags with simple instructions so that the recipients would know what to do with their mystery egg.

  4. 4

    The egg, instructions and cushioning were placed in packaging.

  5. 5

    What a surprise to find a message inside highlighting the details about the big day!
