This was just fun and easy to make. I used a butterfly cane (created for something else) with whites browns and black. I rounded up the cane and just put slices on on willy-nilly, and didn’t forget to poke in an air hole (where the original contents of the egg was removed) so i didn’t get an expansion bubble and cured the egg. Then i added a collar of the same cane, and made a separate ring stand for the bottom and cured again. I drilled a hole in the top and built some leaves and added three oreo-cookie-heart-shaped -red-filled objects at the top (the stem on each heart cookie was a metal eye pin about 1.5 inches long (the looped part pushed into the red clay before pressing the cookie parts together. After the hearts were assembled i poked the eye pins through the hole at the top and squeezed in the leaves a little to hold them in place, cured the egg a third time and sanded some rough spots. The whole thing is coated with Varathane. I think this will be for one of my grandkids.
