Decorating Bunny and Monkey Cakes

Eat eggs within 2 hours out of the fridge. They'll stay good up to a week.
If you want to decorate now, poke a pinhole in each end of the egg and blow gently to blow out the egg.
I love this idea for a centerpiece! I collect ceramic eggs and have since I was little girl, so I will use them in the bird nest! I have received one for each Easter every year!
After hunting for the eggs we've decorated we eat them. Is it safe to be decorating hard boiled eggs this early before Easter? How long do they stay good for in the refrigerator after you've boiled them?
