Sometimes things do not go as planned. I had originally thought I would be able to take this apart and everything would be somewhat ok with the exception of some eggs.

Honestly, I had high hopes that this would be an easy project that would require little to no thought. And everything went well as I started taking things apart. The base can definitely use a fresh coat of paint.

I started questioning my sanity when I started taking apart the eggs from the ring they were attached to. Actually this was rather east to do. After all the eggs were removed, I realized that my original plan was heading for the trash.

I separated the eggs that had no visible signs of damage from the ones that had obvious damage. And I was left with only the glitter eggs and a small hand full of the metallic looking eggs.

So now I have to come up with another plan of action. Please come back to see what I ended up doing.
