One Thing to do With Your Extra Easter Eggs

I was thinking about what I should enter for the pocket-sized contest, and this thought came to me. Maybe I could use some of those left-over plastic Easter eggs. Thus - this Instructable was born.

Step 1 Supplies

1. 1 plastic Easter egg
2. 1 pair of earphones
3. ipod, zune, CD player etc.
4. 1 airline adapter (optional)

K.I.S.S. Keep it simple, stupid! What a great and easy use for those useless little things. I'll have to wait till spring when Mum gets them back down from the attic.

[bowhunterhall]

why don't u just get them down your self???

[bcmummy]

Because they're buried under ungodly amounts of stuff.  Trust me, you don't want to go into our attic without getting a ton of stuff out, too.

[Dumchicken]

you should have an attic sale

[Colonel88]

THIS IS SO SIMPLE>_<

[zacharysims]

This is cool but i put a moter inside and the headphones wrap up themselves but i dont know how i did it...^^,

[monkeyman580]

with security at airports they could easily mistake this as a bomb and arrest u for terrorism  

[Stephen Ritchie]

Oh my gosh! A Barbie Bomb!

[goldenbacon]

 uh, no

[monkeyman580]

um yes wires a jack and the head phone bulb can resemble a wiring for a small bomb the TSA looks for anything with wires in it, around it or attached to it, i am not here to criticize just to forewarn 

[drummonkey92]

nice, if you cut a hole in the egg you could push more wire in/pull it out to shorten.lenghthen the earphone wire.

Thanks, cool idea!

[duck-lemon]

yo i was wondering how to cross out letters. Nice idea.

[The magical duct tape kid]

~ <--- Put two of those, space, whatever you want crossed out, space, then two more of those, and it strikes though. , <-- Comma. Pretty obvious. Put two of those, space, words, space, two more, and then it's small, but down. Put 3 of those, space, words, space, three more, and that's small words, but up.

[Potter45]

Great idea! My family always has a ton of eggs left over from Easter.

[bratnose]

Really? We eat all of our plastic eggs every year. I can't beleive you have any left over.

[monkeyman580]

[JerryMopar]

There is a store in my neighborhood I go to often because it is cheap. It has dated stuff that is good but out of season, and they just put out a bunch of M&M Easter Eggs. I have eaten the M&Ms out of a dozen so far.

[wats-a-username]

or u couls fill it with some flour alminum foil and the stuff in those trow snappy things that hurt so when u throw it is an easter egg flash grenade

[bowmaster]

I drill holes in leftover eggs and put in firecrackers.

What is an airline adapter?

[The magical duct tape kid]

You put your one jack earphones in one end, and the adapter converts it into two jacks. Now you can plug it into the airplane arm rest.

[JellyWoo]

i thought airlines only used 1 jack.

[mettaurlover]

well, NOW they do.

[lupinesoul]

Just an Idea: It might look a bit ridiculous, but how about running the headphone jack through a hole in the bottom of the egg? That way, You just have to pop it open and put in the headphones.

[bumpus]

I'm liking the red, do you prefer that generation ipod nano to the first generation ipod nano?

[The magical duct tape kid]

First generation is way better... The only thing I dislike about the first gen ipod nanos is that they don't come in colors. :(
