This may be a stupid question but.. Have you made these out of real egg shells, or are they plastic decorations? I know it's possible to empty an egg nearly undamaged using the 'blowhole' trick.
This isn't my photo, Slaz. However, I just hardboiled eggs, broke the very top of them , and used the smallest spoon I could find to take out the insides.
I feel the need to note that I have an AWESOME cookie box made, but that my first batch of cookies were a disaster that would not have held together for the journey to you. I have plans this weekend to attempt them again with a different recipe.
Also, I have put the shells back into the egg carton they came in to hold them steady (with plastic underneath them), and yes I put a tiny drainage hole in the bottom for them to drain.
Looks charming!
