photo #1 Removing the wax with a cut piece cloth, which hospital ORs throw away; these are good because they have a bite to the weave and pick up the wax.
#2 I remove any pencil line with a white eraser.
#3 Look at the white wolves teeth pattern-do you see some black bits? I scrape those away with a blade.
#4 You can see a red dot under the letter "e". I used a black marker to cover it. |  I use these pens to touch up colors on an egg. Staedtler 318 Lumocolor Pen Permanent Fine 0.6mm Assorted Ref 318WP8-buy at MICHAEL'S. Yvonne's Tip: "Small uneven areas of the dye can sometimes be corrected with permanent markers. That the level of success can depend on the color in question, so experiment a little before doing it on your prize egg. Black markers are most useful (if your egg ends in black) for running around the white edge of the hole left behind after emptying the egg. " Thanks, Yvonne!(social media) |
I scratched the star into the egg at the end; using a Fiskars finger blade.

Will I Varnish the goose egg? I might leave this as is-it already has a nice bees wax patina.
