  • I'm a big fan of Harry Potter and have always wanted my own golden egg. For more information about materials and tools you need, keep reading on ;)
    Things you need:
    Referens photos - Google ;)
    Template for the engravings: www.facebook.c...
    Plastic Egg - Mine is ment for candy that is maybe easiest to get a hold of around Easter. If you can find one that stands up, thats even better ^^
    Cling wrap
    Masking tape
    (Cotton if you are doing it like I am)
    Measuring tape
    Pen/Marker
    Cirkle template - if you don't have one, use some small round object as a guide ^^
    Worbla* - When I work on my project I usually just improvise, so I don't have any exact measurements 😕 but I did use about 1 sheet of 75x50cm I think (I had some laying around after a cosplay project 😅) Worbla does stretch quiet a bit, so a small pieces do go a long way after all 🙃
    What you can do is to buy the plastic egg first, then measure the size(volume?) of it and calculate how much worbla you'll need. (As you can se in my video I have 2 layers for the three sides, 3 layers for the bottom and 1 for the top) To do that you can cover the plastic egg in cling-wrap (plastic wrap or what its called 🤣) tape it, as I do in the video, and draw on the pieces. Then gently cut the pieces out and use the cut outs as a pattern to calculate how much worbla you need 😊
    Heat gun
    Scissor, Sharp and sturdy
    Glue - Super, School and Poly Cement
    Scalpel
    Hinges - 3 of them
    Pliers - Flat, round
    Clamps
    Paper - if you need to secure it like I do ^^
    Super Sculpey - Or clay of your choice, read on the package for baking time ;)
    Thin wire
    Sculpting tools - or something small and sharp ^^
    Tinn foil
    Plasticard**
    Platic rod**
    Roling pinn - or something round and flat ^^
    Felt - Black
    Soldering Iron - or a heat pen :)
    Respirator mask
    File - or sandpaper
    Filler Spray
    Red Spray paint
    Gold Spray paint
    Gold aluminum paper
    A soft tool - I'm using my eraser pen, but a silicone tipped tool works as well ^^
    Black acrylic paint
    Brush - small
    Satin Finish Spray (liquitex)
    Iridescent cellophane
    Small led light with battery
    Double sided tape
    *Worbla - www.worbla.com "Worbla is a brand of innovative, non-toxic thermoplastics designed to give artists a product that allows endless creativity without sacrificing quality or safety. Ever evolving, the Worbla line of thermoplastics offers something for everyone with an easy learning curve, 100% recyclable material and wide range of applications."
    **Plasticard/rod - plastruct.com/... "Plasticard is a hard plastic, it's industrial name is High Impact Polystyrene Sheet . UK modellers know it as plasticard, in the US it is commonly referred to as styrene sheet, plastcard or plastic card."
    “Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!” - Albus Dumbledore

    Hi! I guess the really bad cold I had when recording the voiceover didn't really help the auto-subtitles. 😆✨ So I have now added English and Swedish subtitles, and if you want to contribute in your own language I think you can do so now? Haha, I don't know how this really works 😅 Hope this helps anyway! 🙃✨

      Did you know that Nitwit Blubber Oddment Tweak means
      Nitwit: A draft person
      Blubber: Extra fat
      Oddment: A portion of cut off fabric
      Tweak: Slightly adjust
      So do you all mean
      A draft person with extra fat with a portion of cut off fabric to slightly adjust himself
      Yes I disliked my own comment

    The Noble Collection, i.e. the official HP collector's merchandise, has a Golden Egg... problem is that it is a static prop that does nothing but sit there and look like a pretty closed egg, nothing else. YOU have made an egg, OUT OF SCRATCH, that not only sits there closed looking pretty, but turn the owl and SURPRISE, it opens up! That's something that you DON'T get paying almost $100 for from Noble and you made this ALL BY YOURSELF! You should be VERY, VERY proud of your work... IT IS OUTSTANDING!!!!
