Martha's instructions and template here -
The eggs I made a couple of years ago - they are just wooden eggs, painted, then a design is scratched in. I coated them in wax before scratching the paint off, it seemed to scratch better that way. For the light colored ones, I scratched out the design, then painted the darker color on and rubbed it off. Where the wax was left, on the off white color, the paint did not "stick", leaving me with a dark design on a light egg.
