Emu eggs are beautiful works of art by themselves, or can be used in several different arts and crafts applications, limited only by your imagination. They're a wonderful rich green color, with each egg unique. Eggs are approximately 5 to 6 inches in length. Each Egg has a hole the size of a penny in large end, emptied, cleaned and sanitized. Emu egg shells have attracted the interest of handcrafters because of the unique outer layer of dark green, which provides an interesting base color for carving or scratch art. The middle layer of the egg is a light blue. Some crafters refer to it as turquoise, in contrast to the outer layer. The inner layer is white, and artists say it is this array of natural colors that makes the emu egg extremely challenging and desirable to work with. No added color is necessary although many crafters use acrylics, oils or hot-glued items to complement its appearance. Growing interest in egg art has attracted artists of every description, from portrait and landscape painters, to tole artists, artists who work with beads and decoupage, miniaturists and decoupagers.
