Egg-loo and tiny polar bear made with polymer clay and eggs

This egg-loo (igloo) became just that because my granddaughter saw the partly cut egg in my basket of scraps and mentioned it looked like an igloo… thus, I was compelled (haha) to turn it into just what she mentioned, and added a little soap carving style polar bear.  He is fat from all that salmon, but is made from a cockatiel egg as his main body part, with legs and head added later.  The egg-loo is made from a chicken egg, blown and washed, covered with polymer clay, cut out with a dremel cutting blade, covered with a rectangular yellow-white-transparent polymer clay and yellow iridescent powder so it will glow in the night (for a few hours per the source description) with a icy blue covering which was then indented as a mortar joint would be. Then the egg was cured, and the indented joints were filled with white polymer clay, cured again, and then sanded and coated with Varathane.
